Service History!!!! make sure the belts have been changed recently (within 2 years) by seeing a receipt with the reg number on. If this hasn't been done, you will have to do it straight away and that could be anywhere between £300 and £400. Not to mention if it has been driven too long without a change, long term damage may have been done. Make sure the bike is cold when you start it up. If its a bit smokey, make sure it clears after it warms up. If it stays smokey (blue smoke) the shims may be shot. That pic definitely only has one caliper on it, as the small red cover is still visible, and only one brake hose. If you have any doubts, follow your head and not your heart and walk away!! |
