    Speak for yourself, I'm not that old! :p

    Gearbox works when it's off and the brakes work.
    Battery was flat so I'm taking a risk on another project!

    Got a good feeling about this one though, the seller seemed pretty genuine and was selling it to buy parts for another bike. He was also willing to move on the price :thumb_ups:

    Rear disc is a bit worn but both front ones are good. Arrived too late to try jump starting it without annoying the neighbours, so I have something else to keep me occupied for the next few days, along with replacing the charging system on Rosie and the rear brake pads on Nix! :)

    Here are a few from the original ad.

    Left side

    $_57.JPG

    Right side - you can see scratches on the stator cover where the lowside happened.

    $_57 (2).JPG

    Custom muffler! :D

    $_57 (1).JPG

    Fairings weren't on it when the PO lowsided it as the cowl needs minor repairs.

    $_57 (6).JPG

    Spare exhaust from a 600 (R6 I think?) as the PO was going to eliminate the EXUP but never got around to it.

    $_57 (11).JPG

    All up, looks to be in about the same state Nix was when I got her. All pretty do-able with not much effort (I hope!)

    Started fine with a jump start from my car once I found the fuel tap. Gotta be happy with that!

    Thanks @MashtX for the find!

    The bit that gets me is the bottom line: "much cheaper than the original part"
    :lolsign:

    I should part mine out, I'd get my money back as the whole bike cost less than that!
