Hi one and all, My name is Li.
I've been lurking this site for some time, and now with an impending purchase i've done the honourable thing .
I am about to view/collect an xrv 650 i won on ebay ( you may have seen it last week). It looks in great original condition and the guy seems genuine which is a good start. It has done 25k miles.
What i am concerned about is this gearbox output shaft mallarky.
Will i be able to tell if there is anything wrong by looking over the bike?
I aint no mechanic and it only has a side stand so will be difficult enough to check bearing play in wheels etc.
What can i do to check, does any body know of any relevant threads? What else should i look out for?
Many thanks in advance, This is only the tip of my questions iceberg.
In anticipation....... i wait....and wait...
