Late model - high mileage AT for sale

[richardb]

Okay - I'm getting a new bike and the AT has to go. A dealer has offered me a trade in - but I don't like his numbers.

I haven't got a photo yet but:

52 plate - registered Jan 2003
50K miles on the clock.
MOT until Nov.
Just got new OEM fuel pump (I know)
New front tyre (Tourance),
Same on the back - good for another 5K I reckon
Chain and sprockets done about 2-3K
Fehling engine bars
Orion top box - 40 ish litres - looks like would fit 2 helmets but not tested that theory.
Centre stand.
Datatool alarm.

the downside:

Needs new front disks.
The front left caliper is sticking a bit - the pin is slightly bent, its enough to stop the front wheel freewheeling. As a result I am only drving short distances right now.

This is very recent - I just don't have the time to do anything about it.

Also the little 'parking' lights in the headlights have been removed - inc the wiring. Honda said the part was on back order - and I haven't chased them about it. This may need to be replaced before the MOT.

Its had a couple of low speed spills (ice at walking speed) which you can see on the engine bars and the bar ends. Small damage on one pillion foot rest - but its still usable.

Tank and plastics are fine.

Its been outside and ridden in all weathers for the last two years that I have had it. So there are touches of rust, but nothing serious.

In all its generally been a good runner but needs a bit of TLC - in the right hands its got years left in it. Just not in mine - I know my limitations.

Extras:

Most receipts from the last two years
Haynes manual
Spares - after market front sprocket, rear pads, rear bulb, magnetic sump plug, couple of sparks.
Slime for tubed tyres - won't need as going tubeless.

All reasonable offers considered, will try to post pics tomorrow.

Regarding your bent caliper pin, it may not be bent at all. Sometimes the rubber boot it slides in gets a little out of wack with crap outside it pushing it to one side. This makes it difficult to put the caliper back together if you have pulled it in half and it feels like the two pins don't line up.
