    That’s nice Ken:cool:

    The end can with the lobster back segments really suites the bike.

    What year is it.

    I’d say with such a high mileage, fairing repairs, wheel repainting and the bike wanting a good clean £***:laughing:

    If it’s as good as it looks in the picture for a private sale £5.5k-£6 :) and now your going to tell me you paid a lot less :sob::sob:

    What ever you paid mate it looks a fine machine :cool:

    I’ve ridden it many times before, it belonged to my Essex touring buddy. He’s absolutely anal about keeping it in showroom condition, only ridden in rain on tour. Rides like a pussy as well having it was a no brainier.
    It’s small & very light, just like the Thruxton, but with 4 cylinders & a tremendous airbox growl. Baffles in, too loud when out.
