That NSR has ben in that shop for quite long time I believe. I watch that site regularly, and I'm sure that was there when I visited in May (to look at an FJR!)

I didn't get too good a feel about the guys there to be honest. Dunno why as they were perfectly pleasant, but just got the feeling they would say just about anything to make a sale.

Bodywork is expensive, if not impossible to get hold of. The rest is pretty good price wise, and most parts are easily sourced second hand.

Buyer beware, but I do think you can do better for that money. I'd pay £750 tops for that one, and even then, only after I'd done a compression check on it to verify the state of the engine. A bad engine will cost you £500 if it needs two replates and piston kits...
