NOW SOLD TO A BLOKE WHO ALREADY HAS TOO MANY BIKES.

I have a curvy I was going to make into a track bike. Looking into costs of track days/transport/tyres/fuel etc I just don't have the money for it for the next 18 months or so.
At the minute it's engine in frame with swingarm and shock attached. Full loom in place.
Wheels, rear sprocket carrier, brake calipers with braided lines, clip ons, switch gear, tank, air box, carbs, radiator blah blah blah all removed and boxed up.

Recently serviced forks, alloy front sub frame, race rear sets, r6 throttle, alloy exhaust hanger, zx6 fully adjustable rear shock, GSXR 750 race fairing including screen and tail unit and modified rear subframe to take GSXR seat unit all bought and ready to fit.
I also have a spare set of carbs.

V5 in my name. Could easy go back on the road. Good winter project. Engine was running perfectly before it was stripped down. All it needs parts wise is an end can and new battery.

The bits I have bought for it cost me over £400 so I think £750 or very close is a good price for a quick sale for the whole lot.

Hello mate whats the history of the motor how many miles has it done.

Off the top of my head it is 30-32k miles but can check the last MOT to confirm.
Solid engine though, never gave me any problems.

Winder · 18-09-12, 08:30 PM

Just had a look and the last MOT was 34k I only done 850miles from then. I remember as I put a new chain and sprocket set on and wanted to keep tabs on the wear compared to the mileage.
I can't find the service booklet but know I have it somewhere.
It's 2002 model and the 1st owner put 30k miles on it as a standard bike and serviced every 6 months. He then traded it in for an injection model.
He and the bike shop are the two previous owners.
It was in one accident where I twisted the fork but was fine with new forks on.
I think I have a HPI check report for it from a few months ago. I had one check left and no one wanted to buy it so i just checked my own bike. Why not.

First time i opened these forks today. They were sent for seal and oil change last year and been in the packaging untill this afternoon.

I added the front end to the bike today so it can be loaded into a van more easy. Good winter project for someone.
