I bought this monster on New Year`s Eve. it had been up for sale on MCN for a few weeks and with a new lockdown in force it seemed a good time to buy especially as it was quite close to home. Its a 2003 bike, 30k miles with 3 previous owners and is in very nice condition with good history up to 5 years ago when the last owner started DIY. Having seen his workshop I`m reasonably confident.
I like the fact it has a steel tank, Sargent seat and fat grips but I`m not sure about the belly pan, horrible 996 number stickers,crash bungs and red radiator cap etc but thats all easy to sort out. I`m also not sure if I need the extra BHP and torque compared to my S2R but I suppose I`ll find out in the Spring....
