Just had a quick look at the Ad. Mentions front end damage.

I'd leave it alone, you can bet it has been repaired using 2nd hand parts that have been removed from other crashed bikes. Like I said, I'd be happy to buy a cheap bike that has been repaired with 2nd hand panels, tank etc .... but, not 2nd hand forks, wheels, brakes etc etc.

Also would expect the bike to be cheaper than that if it is a recorded write off.

I think there was an ad on here this morning for a 2004 749BP at £5,000 .... may make a better buy. £150 decal kit (fitted) and a few 2nd hand carbon goodies and you have a good straight Fila rep. Even better wait a few weeks and copy the latest 2006 WSB decals .... Fila is soooo last year
