I guess it's a good deal so i suppose a few people had problems with the repair and the missing electrics which in itself is no big deal.
Good luck with it!!!!

Bike shop warned me about C1 being unreliable in that area and told me to hang on for a C2.

ps - your car looks solidly built (translation, lardy, like mine) do you think a bike engine is gonna hack the extra weight?

Starting a collection Joel?. Some EP90 probably got the pressure up. The clutch cover looks like a road rash, they are pretty thick so I doubt if it's gone right through.

n'err a truer word spoken steve! you are, of course, quite right. These engines are for the next one. The current one has a few mods lined up to solve the issues thrown up in the thread where i posted photos, namely a DOHC lump, new backend with 'real' IRS, new fuel tank and proper bracing. This will drop the weight a lot, but really its to heavy to consider bikes for this one. Next time eh!

and yes pete, we have a c1 collection on the way!

ps does anyone know the east kilbride area just south of glasgow? thats where the lump is getting collected from this weekend.

pps love the new sig pete...
