this is the s1 we picked up last weekend from sky she's in a bit of a sorry state but that can be sorted with a little time and a bit of cash

whats everyones opinions what needs replaced and what needs removing as its surplus to needs ( I'm thinking the oil cooler is a bit OTT )

There's some good stuff on there. As you say a good tidy up and fettling and you should have a goodun. I took the oil cooler off my X1 as it never seemed to be needed and I reckon a better Derby cover would look good :D

Well done :yup:

If you decide to get rid of the cooler and sandwich plate etc., can I have first dibs?

May be overkill for you, but I live in Mallorca ;)

Cheers,
Mick.

Nice bike , loads of expensive extras , looks like the previous owner grew tired of ownership, a bit of elbow grease and it will like a new pin, I have just removed the same oil cooler and am going to opt for an ally oil tank with extra oil capacity :yup:
