This bike belongs to a mate of mine, who purchased it at a cost of £6,750 a year ago.

Cosmetically,this bike is absolutely stunning ! There is a BUT !

BUT... For some reason, the bike starts and runs fine for a couple of minutes but after that, it then stops and will not turn over and re-start. There appears to be no mechanical noises that would indicate the pistons seizing in the bores. It does not burn any oil nor does it smoke. I personally feel that the bike is suffering from a clutch / bearing related problem.

This bike must be sold within the next few weeks as it is taking up valuable space in my shed.

This bike is for sale at £3,750. I feel that this is an absloute bargain price for this bike, if you are willing to spend some time getting your hands dirty !

Feel free to contact me on 07977 288013 / 01202 710644 for any further information.

Why would you say clutch / bearing related problem....

I'd be guessing that its an electrical / ignition related problem. Can you describe what happens when the bike stops

It's a bloody steal at that price. Shame I'm on the other side of the planet

Fuel starvation?
