Its in good nick but not as good as it should be for the low mileage !
I paid the rather hefty sum of £3000 for it. The guy was asking 3300.
Paid £250 to get the camchain adjusters done, so its cost me 3250 really lol
Still... I am happy enough... the mileage is low enough so I intend to keep it a good few years :)

Yeah hard to believe its 20 years old, 25k on the clocks but does seem to have been really well looked after and came with a vfr800 handle bar conversion and a bag of spares, even a spare flat bar conversion, bonus is it only cost £1800
