Bore da!!
Just sold my race SV650 and picked up a bargain of an R1 off a neighbor that's stood out his back for two years in a bike tent thingy! Annnyyyway- bought it as a non runner- new brakes- battery- wheel bearings and oil change and she fired into life first time
The bike was originally stolen recovered in 2005 then Q plated. Thankfully DVLA have agreed to put back on age related plate for free with a letter off Yamaha confirming year of manufacture.
All in the bike owes my £1250 as it stands- cheap as chips- it's only done 16k miles and I have all MOTS SINCE 2005.
I'll post a pic as soon as I learn how to!!
Cheers
Chris

Ignore PJC.... He needs new reading glasses... Should have gone to spec savers..... Or perhaps he did and that's the problem
