SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD
I've had this for many years and while its hard to see it go I really need the room in the shed. Originally I purchased this as a write off from state, live rego etc (in the good old days) where it had suffered the usual cosmetic damage. Another written off one turned up in Kaitaia with some useful goodies so I bought that too and with a new main fairing bracket purchased, and a bit of plastic welding all was put back together and includes a Yoshimura muffler, I purchased a new muffler bracket, which is included , it also needs a new skin. The 1994 RF's with the kilometer speedos were the highest horsepower models, the later ones with MPH were for the american market and were a few horsepower down.
Rego is 61 TAS carjam shows 2000kms whereas when I purchased it had 14000kms on it. I do not run a WOF, or rego, and it has not changed ownership since 1996 so carjam hasn't had a mileage update in this time. It is a great weapon and taken me all over the country many a time
The speedo glass was damaged and so I took the speedo off the second bike with 13800miles already on the clock. Speedo now shows 32673miles.
actual kms travelled is 44196.
Serviced and valve clearances done when purchased 14000kms and again at 37997kms with oil changes in between of course includes a ventura headlight protector and pack rack
Overall the body work is a little tatty with a few scratches and plastic welding marks, cosmetically there are tidier ones around certainally. I always planned after rebuilding the write off to give it a cosmetic going over but never did.
I have spare fairng blades, fairing side panels,, tailpeice sidepanels, 2 petrol tanks, one damaged in the same colour and one in excellent order in a different colour scheme, and a box of little odds and ends that may be useful included
Front tyre is a michelin pilot with the moulding mark still on it and the rear is a dunlop D207 with about 4mm of tread. I'm pretty sure I have a spare front D207 somewhere which I will include with plenty of tread. I will warrant it and put some rego on for the new owner too.
Its been hard making up my mind to sell it as its a good fast reliable bike but my shed is just getting too full, I can talk about delivering it to the lower half of the north island and by sea to Christchurch via bluebridge.

Is there a reason why you don't run a WOF? Just wondering :)

As per above why do you not have a warrant? Also no warrant for this amount of time would indicate that there is little likely hood that the rego is current but on hold can you confirm this is the case? Thinking of recommending this to a friend.
