Yeah mate, but as I've got a complete spares bike that I really need to get up here anyway, I'll just wait a couple of weeks for it to arrive.

Dude, at what he's asking it's just too expensive for us unfortunately. I just bought a complete, full bodywork, (sad) runner for $180.

If your man's interested, we might be keen on buying some bits and pieces, but realistically I wouldn't want to pay more than 500 for the collection.

Loving this thread as it brings back memories of my MVX bought brand new in 1983 from a dealer in Adelaide, SA OZ

Never had a problem with mine and always ran hotter plugs than standard, I think they were NGK gold from memory and used good two stroke oil.

Used to travel 80km round trip to and from work on the chain of ponds road in the Adelaide Hills and she was superb to ride

May even look for another to rebuild here in Oz one day
