My mate is about to sell his 600 SRAD if you're keen, around $4500 I think?

The SRAD 600 is a total hoot, at least take it for a bash!

maybe a bit on the greedy side? its not even complete
how did you score the h1?

Bit of a story but have been trying to buy one for so long now, saw it on trade me, the guy was getting silly offers for it, as he did state it did not go.
I went to see it and told him the battery was stuffed; jump started it and let him know the clutch was slipping; all this was obvious and correct.
Others told him the engine was toasted and could not get it going (or did not want to try); he rang me and offered to me for what I said it was worth to me on the day.
My lesson learnt here was to me totally honest, show my cards and let him make an informed decision.
So I will need to replace battery and clutch, it is in less than perfect condition but to worth the monies I paid.

hehe, yeah I have had that very statement before.
I am planning on restoring it, back to its former glory.
I have been playing/ learning the restoration process with other bikes so when I finally got the H1 I could do it properly.
I am slowly collecting the parts/ items, like bearings and seals I will need, so when I do start it I should not have any delays, I am planning on it being a winter project.
I am unloading an unfinished project (GSX400r) this Thursday to make room for this project.
I want to photo my way through it as well.

those gixxer 400's are fickle arent they! do you have the standard jets still or spare carb parts?
Have fun with the H1. Should be very easy to make it look good
