Wicked Uncle Nigel - 05 Aug 2007 22:45 GMT
T plate 1100 Pan. 50th Anniversary Limited Edition, in a fetching shade
of gold.

ABS and TCS (see below).

105,000 miles.

Baglux tank cover.

Honda colour matched top-box to go with the panniers.

Corbin saddle. Sit on it all day, you won't get piles.

Cosmetically challenged, and the ABS is currently faulting. Last time
that happened cleaning the battery terminals cured it. I have tried that
and it didn't change things. Assume dodgy sensor (about £100 from David
Silver).

It's got a genuine Honda right silencer and a Motad left one.

It's also got an amazingly full service history from it previous owner,
including cambelt at 60,000 miles. I've done oil and filters, and fitted
a new rear ABS sensor and a new clutch.

1 year's MOT (mid August 2008) and taxed to end of November.

Currently sporting a towbar, but I plan to remove that and flog it
separately, unless you haggle.

Basically scruffy but sound Pan.

Located in North Herts, near Hitchin. Delivery by arrangement.

£1100 to a UKRMer.

It's not. It doesn't take up enough space to be a worry.

There may be a prior claim, matey. :)

Condition of sale, and all that.

Possibly.

I wasn't denying that - but being squished between your back and
Bronz's front was getting a bit onerous.

I remember that.  I was there at the time and everything.  And sober.
Ish.

There's always that.  Not a lot of call for dirt bikes round your way,

I've got a TS250 that might be for sale - 12 months MOT.

This is a TS250 - actually it's a TS250/1
http://sweller.co.uk/sob/images/xeu-620.jpg

This is the one I may have for sale but it now has straight forks and
looks marginally less sh.t:

Although its not the off road suzuki tool I'm looking for, it may well
fill a spot in the garage that is marked "Cheap Winter Hack". Any up to

No, but I'll get onto it.  What do you call cheap?  I [1] also have a
CX650 Eurosport.
http://sweller.dynalias.org/images/CX650-1.jpg
http://sweller.dynalias.org/images/CX650-2.jpg

Gear change seal weeps and it needs a brush plate for the starter motor
before winter comes (starts ok ATM, just a bit lethargic).  I can
organise slightly less sh.t photos.

Not sure of its value - TOG?

[1]  It's actually a friend's but it lives in my lockup and is for sale.

Blimey. It's a bit challenged, although it's all there and the 650 is
quite sought-after.

A lot depends on  how it runs. A *hell of a lot* depends on whether the
drive shaft tunnel is badly corroded, which has put more old CXs off the
road than White Van Man. They rust through from the inside: bad news.

Assuming it runs well and the shaft tunnel is OK, then it looks like it
could be made road-legal for not much cash. So £300-400 depending on
state of tyres, brakes, etc.

It's got a brand new MOT, good brakes, good tyres (Avons), runs fine and
shaft OK.

Oh, well, then, £500 all day long. Maybe £600 with some polish and
chrome cleaner applied.

I had a CX500 and vowed never to tankslap one on a public highway again.

Cheap - like it says on the tin, let me know roughly what your looking
for when you've sorted some piccies out.

I'm sorry, but I still really like CX Eurosports.

They handle for sh.t, but they flick really swiftly from side to side,
and the wobble never gets terminal so long as you keep the throttle
pinned; lift and you die.

Oh, and if it rains you fall off.  No exceptions :)

But as a cheap tourer, and one which is so easy to maintain even *I*
could do a full service, with minimum tools?  Top stuff.  And nowhere
near as cheaply built as the POS VT/NTV that followed it.
