'00 model M2, 53k from new.
Defects: Gearbox (belt too tight), 2 shocks (both recalls), 3 or 4 front engine mounts, virtually everything that can be found at the end of an electrical lead. Plus some electrical leads. :lol:

There was the odd bearing and isolator but that's "normal" wear, so they say ;)

Bike just seems to get better and better. I'd be seriously disappointed not to get another 53k out of it. ;) Collecting spares though to help contain any disappointment, and I may eventually need to move to the Manchester area :mrgreen:
