Oi! Not careless: diesel!!

I'm keen to get it back on the road, but it looks marginal whether the insurance will write it off. I'm aware about the big-end problem, oil starvation after a bike's been in its side though, but I may got for it anyway. Want to get some valus out of the STM clutch and 4-pad calipers fitted recently.

Anyway it's done 46000 miles, and I was looking forward to hitting that 50000 mile milestone this year. Engine and gearbox are in good nick.

pants> The prices you quote sound expensive compared to what they go for in the UK.
Have you considered buying a bike over here? I know you'd have to change the headlight, but still...

Have a look in Market Place to see what kind of money people are asking in the UK.
