The seller does say Rothmans colours - same as brand new. The blue appears darker than OE so its likely an aftermarket job. Looks pretty good though.

The nose cone is not OE, front vents + fit line to lower fairing (under the indicator). Not a major issue though.

Lower fairing looks OE, but check the belly pan area, there seems to be a huge gap where the LHS expansion chamber exits. Worth checking for any fairing bracket / fitment probs.

Also confirm if its on 2T oil injector or premix. If you intend the bike for regular road use, oil injector is much easier (IMO). Mirrors would also be useful for road use Wink .

Mechanically, the bike looks very tidy, on the exterior at least. Suggest you compare this with other MC21's recent selling prices in Canada. Fully OE spec bikes can command a slightly higher premium than those with non OE bodywork + paint, of similar age / condition / kms. Not always though Wink

Also check if its an R or SE model. Looks like an SE, think I can see fork adjusters, check for the dry clutch.

Does anyone know when gold coloured brake disc rotors made an appearance on the MC21?? Confused
