Current ride: Victoria Sponge
Location: Bristol - Gateway to all things good
1998 S1W White Lightning
7700 miles
R reg
Full Buell race kit (exhaust / air box / ignition), DynoJet Thunderslide kit
Good condition
Lots of tread on the tyres
10 months Tax
10 months MOT
Just serviced

Other things you would end up changing that are already there
10 bobbin disc
dog bone front exhaust hanger
US gearing

Things you should know
Slight scuffing to the exhaust header - I can't find any evidence that this bike has been down the road (no scuffing to brake lever, brake pedal, footpeg etc.) - previous owner said they were scuffed when he bought them to fit.
Paint a bit naff on swinging arm near to brake caliper - looks like some fluid has dripped out and not been addressed - never found this an issue as was going to swap the swinging arm for one off an X1/M2

What am I doing with it?
I originally owned restone's S1w, but ran out of money so had to sell it. I kinda missed it, even though I had the grenade, so I tracked down another in the states, with the bits I wanted on it (race kit etc.). However, I have too much stuff in the garage and this is the first to go.

If you are interested in it, you really need to come and look at it. It is a 13 year old bike. It is not new and it is not in showroom condition, however I went for a ride on it this morning and it is a really nice bike to ride...

Whats the point of viewing it if they are going to break it up to make a chopper? :twisted:

Maybe your feedback says it all?

Oh and I think that its white and bright and shiny helps a lot. Plus its cheaper than the other orange and purple one by £1300 at the moment
