Comments from the seller

Regretfully selling my baby due to external reasons. Only contact me if completely serious - no time wasters please. The bike has had significant upgrades both cosmetic and technical: - brand new upgraded radiator fan - custom paint - new fork seal replacements - new exhaust baffle and copper gaskets. - complete custom tail end incl. legal VIN number relocation. - new handle bars, mirrors and throttle + throttle cable. - full electrical rig upgrade incl. Moto gadget mo.unit install (alarm, bluetooth and gps) - will come with 2 sets of tires: knobblies (pictured) and a set of Heidenau K60 Scout (currently fitted) – both sets like brand new. - 2 boxes of components and spare parts incl. cowl, battery charger, clamp on handlebars, custom radiator cover and more, so there's still some room to customize how you see fit and make it yours. Estimated total cost of the above work: $15k and countless hours of labour - give or take. Full disclosure: there are 3 known issues: - 2x minor oil leaks: one from the oil window seal and the other suspected to be from drive shaft gasket. Neither really impact riding the bike – just a bit of oil after long rides - small air leak in the fuel line causes minor idle fluctuation and some back firing. My mechanic assures me that all these issues can be remedied, she just needs some love (the bike, not the mechanic) that I just can’t provide currently. Happy to put you in contact with them directly if serious about purchase. Shes been in storage for the last 6 months but taken out around the block once a month so shes running just fine. Serious offers will be considered. 18/7/25 PRICE DROP: Due to a personal issue I'll take 4k off the price as I need a small cash injection asap.
