Honda FJS 600 Silvering maxi scooter for sale.
Honda FJS 600 Silverwing
Y reg, 25k. Blue. I've had this bike for over a year now and it's never let me down or missed a beat. It's been a faultless commuter into London each day for me. It's a very comfortable and smooth bike and is like riding a recliner around! 600cc parallel twin hustles along nicely. Will go past 100 mph and the long wheel base keeps it stable. I've been on one 200 mile trip on it and it was great. I can see why people tour on these bikes.
The bike was originally supplied by Tippets and has been serviced by them up to 10k (when I go it) I've serviced it myself since then. The only thing I've done to it is to replace the pathetically weak front springs with Hyperpro ones. Ths makes agreat improvement to the ride.
It does have a few battle scars as it's a commuter, but these are superficial scratches rather than gouges from going down the road on its side. I've never dropped it and can't see any evidence of it being crashed at any time. I can take good digi pictures of all the marks if there is any interest. The worse bit on the bike, although not very visible, is the wheels. Honda really let themselves down with the finish on these wheels. Most people have them powder coated. Again I can take pictures if anyone was interested.
Its only just recently been through the MOT and is taxed until dec 07 or jan 08?
Its been a great bike and changed my view on scooters. Ths really does have the legs to be taken seriously. Super daily hack with potential for much more.
£1995 ono.
