**** this is very tempting, I use to ride my uncles whenever I went to his place when I was younger.

had someone message me 1/2 an hour after I advertised it and was real interested, went as far as arranging a time to view and said will probably buy it but never turned up. His name was Stu, could this be stu from here?

This bike has really p***** me off today, someone is coming to have a look tomorrow so I thought I would just start it and make sure it is running sweet. Ran well on the weekend, today would not start, towed it behind the quad bike and eventually fired up and ran real well, maybe a touch on the lean side but otherwise good. after a bit of riding I let it idle for a bit and it died. Not 100% if it ran out of fuel or what as it is hard to see inside the tank. anyway filled it up again and it won't start again!

Never let me down before but just now it has, I think it just doesn't want to leave here lol.

EDIT: Thanks for the picture craig:thumbup:

So have this bike going again, apparently it relies on the battery to be fully charged to start, having not been ridden for a while it was flat.
