This is not the full power version and has 100 bhp (no Vboost). However, it is still extremely torquey and pretty damn rapid.

Clock reads 14350 but must have had clock change at some point.

Go to mot history check online and input the reg number (G558RRN) and the MOT Certificate number (847818664158) and you can see the recorded mileages from 2006 to date....it's all over the place!

I've got no service history/bills/receipts/owners manual.......just the full logbok in my name, current and last mot certificate.
The logbook states colour blue so will need updating by the next owner....or just paint it blue!
I am the 14th owner since it arrived in the UK in 1999!!
One key does ignition, steering lock, dummy tank cover and helmet lock. Another key does the locking petrol cap.

Engine is stamped 3UF so is a Japanese domestic market model. As above, it's not full power and it's also speed restricted. According to the internet there's a disc inside the speedo housing that makes a connection and cuts the spark at that speed.....bending the disc will remove the restriction but I've not bothered.

Since I've had it I've replaced the brake and clutch assemblies, fitted 2 bar end mirrors, replaced the riders footrests and rear light unit, fitted the black and silver flexi reg plate and skull graphic tank protector and wrapped the downpipes. I am currently waiting for the postman to arrive with a set of chrome bullet indicators..

The videos give a good indication of its' condition and also the way it sounds.

I've had a 1998 full power version before and the difference is really not that marked...in fact, this one is a much nicer machine.

This bike starts immediately and settles quickly into a steady tickover. It rides faultlessly with smooth transmission and a slick and effortless gear change. No nasty knocks or noises.....just smooth liquid power and a deafening sound of thunder!
