New to me 4xv1

Post by dark_soldier »

Hello all.

I have had a good number of bikes over the years, every bike I have ever wanted I have owned at some point, except for an early R1 with the graffiti style graphics. After quite a long search I bought this in August 2023:

3500 miles from new, with a story (there's always a story) but paperwork to confirm. Completely standard.

Intended use is mostly local running around all year round. It will be looked after, I enjoy tinkering and cleaning just as much as riding.
