Bought this off a fellow QCR member who got it off trademe, seller stated the kickstart was 'faulty'...

Sourced a cheap unknown condition donor bottom end for $20, and checked out what I had bought:

Bike ready to ride, no tailight, no indicators, no rego, no worries:

Bike does 40mph all day everyday, pulls hard, gearbox is mint, poor exhaust repair in past has blown apart to open pipe.

Future plans are triple clamps for handlebar change, straighten bent front forks, new seat, rowdy exhaust, rear swingarm change, rear shocks/spring change.

Have scored an epic deal on some new Metzeler 120/90/10 and 130/90/10 tyres:
