996BP, yr2000 help
 
Going to check out a 996BP tomorrow with FDSH and Silmotor (chipped) exhaust.

Generally is there anything I be wary of?

Any help appreciated!

Paul

See if you can get a look in the header tank, and check for emulsified oil+water. Speaking from experience here:(:(

Hey I've got a yr2000 996BP with Sil Motor cans ....

Usual stuff with service history relating to mileage and age. Make sure the heads have been off and the rockers have been checked. I didn't do this when I bought mine and replaced 8 rockers and had to get one of the cam lobes polished!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, thats 8!!!

I'm not really sure about the others but lookup Shazaam's posts ....

Cheers - Well I got it!!!

YellowBP, 996, Y2k,6500miles - I owner from new, not perfect but in pretty good nick, Silmotor exhausts / chipped, saddlebag, original exhausts / chip, trickle charger, stay down stand, and paddock stand, and FSH. The guy is emigrating to the USA - Pick it up on Friday.

Last service 6k just under a year ago.
