Hi there...Thanks for this. You're correct though about the exact bike and as a result my lack of urgency. It's as much as what the bike represented at that time of my life as much as the model. The fact that it's been off the road for so long though does leave me cautious as I've said....just in case it had a negative demise that resulted in someone getting hurt. I'd rather think that someone is thrahing the life out of it on track and loving every minute than that. This was always a long long shot given that I only owned it for the first 6 months of its life and it's been someone else's baby for much longer....still nothing ventured nothing gained and I may connect with an owner that may look to part with it in the future

Cheers


Tony
