for sale ad done :''-(

off to buy a lottery ticket in a bit, and if I win I will keep it



I am going to sell the BMW first, then decide what to do with the CB-1 (it is my wifes bike... and I got it for her, for Christmas in 1996... and had it in the front room for her on Christmas day with a bow ...

will get some photos on Friday when I pick it up, and take it to get MOT etc.....


also got a CB-1 400cc to go as well, but this probably isn't the place for that :lol:


think I will get some photos, sort a 'for sale' for bike as is.... and give it a week, or so.... if no luck then start looking ...

I suppose you only come on here once you've got one though


when I sold my slingshot gsxr years ago, all the bits on it, sort of sold it... but these are a little more erm...acquired (?) I think.... so wasn't sure whether it would go as is


thanks

So the time has come to sell up.....

I have owned my bike, a 1999 mandarin since 2002... and it doesn't get used and I now I need the space etc etc

but it has some goodies on it.... now I'm not posting here to start a frenzy, I just wanted advice.... is it worth selling as is, or am I better off ...

just received mine.... but I don't know either!!

mines a '99 standard s...... I bet its the shocks, or the pipe or something else I've changed!

I know this is not related to r110s, bmw's or even bikes.....

but I'm stuck..... maybe someone can enlighten me....

I have 2 seat inca (vw caddy) vans, one with a ropey engine, and the other had the bonnet come up on the motorway..... but had a 10k recon.


So I dropped both subframes, and put the ...

I pay about £160 fully comp on the bike......

and was quoted £1450 on my van

it was cheaper to buy another van... and put all 3 on a fleet policy!

I have a laser chip for a early S, not the earliest (mine!!) but the second one..... I'll dig the chip out if you are interested..... yours for a nominal fee.... (cover the postage basically!!)

I bought a full system from sportmoto, but the chip was wrong, so had to pay out for a bb power chip.


I ...

It's the belt from the crank pulley to the alternator, which is on top of the engine.

I am no where near replacing mine, but I believe the early belts were quite low service intervals, but you can fit a long life belt, and pulleys.

But I'd get that confirmed.

John

oops... I just mentioned your kit on boxertech, Bob......

and here you are yourself....

Thanks for the seat.... very comfy....


John

Mate was back today after his week off... so he set these up for me... nothing to it though... i was just a wooz!! :oops:

put the back wheel in... greased the nuts and ...

thats a nice thought Jason.... my bikes better than yours etc,

erm... yes I took all the bits back to motorworks today, I was in the area... ahem!! And picked up a driveshaft.... you can see a section of rubber in between the shafts.... I'll get a photo later.

They said the shaft was 'S' specific ...

Hi Jason,

with shaft attached and bike in gear, if I grab bevel box end of shaft I can rotate shaft, if I grab gearbox end its solid.... I even wedged a screwdriver into UJ to see if I could make it spin... and its solid until it turns engine....

I'm sure that box hasn't failed 'cos I would have ...

Well started stripping the bike down this evening,

got pipes, subframe, bodywork, tank, and then started on the transmission....

got the swingarm bolts (plugs?) out and slid the bevel box and shaft housing off.... and the stink!!

the shaft seems to have a cush drive in it and that has died! It ...
