Looks somewhat similar to mine, only much cleaner! What year is it and what mileage?
Mine's only done 41,000km and I've had it 3 years now. Great bike!
What size rear tyre on yours? Mine came with a 130-70 and I replaced it with same as they didn't recommend increasing the size. Bummer was I since found a site that gave the specs and gthe original tyre was a 150. Going to take me a while to wear out the one I got now, though!

Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!

Mine's actually a late '88 build, reg '89. I'm running Metzler's too, a Lazertec ME33 front and the updated ME55 rear. Good tyres and perform well even when scraping pegs, (well okay, toes...), around the Coro. Have full confidence in them and see no need to try other brands, though other owners may have reports on different tyres they've tried.
Even after 3 years and getting comfortable with the bike and more agressive - (maybe not the right word - more confident?), I find the bike is fast, getting to the double tonne pretty quick!handles well enough, stable, brakes hard and is comfortable for long rides bar the handle-bar vibes.
The fuel guage took some trusting it drops very quickly but even with the needle under the red it still only took 15.6lt and hadn't gone onto reserve. (20lt tank) Averages about 45mpg, (still think in the old money...!) when cruising but cane it and you'll think there's a hole in the tank!![]()

Im stoked that the dude gave me a full set of mint fairings still in their box! Plus shes got a full service history since her import!
Cheers edbear, got lots of confidence building to do before I get to 'peg scrape' status!
First lesson of new bike: 60 on speedo is MPH not KPH !
