Purchased February 1993 Sold April 1994.30,000 miles.When it went,no better bike.When it played up,it was awful.Rock steady at 100 mph.Quick for a 500.Handled quite well.Cost me a black listing with the RAC,because every morning I'd stop for petrol and it wouldn't start up.Call RAC for help.They'd turn up 45 minutes later and the bike would start straight away.Eventually traced it to alternator connectors,expanded when hot--no electrical connection.Then after a rebuild,the cam chain tensioners packed up and I got rid of it.Mine,black,had a cut down seat.
