Returning member (2004 last time ) West yorkshire

Post by Paulstaines »

Hi again. Just purchased a late 2004 R100s in grey. 13,000 miles heated grips and larger rear wheel (twin spark ). Was really looking for an 05 boxercup to replace the one I had many years ago but when this one popped up locally I could not believe the condition. Can only be described as concourse. Bought it on the spot. It's having a service and a 12 month m.o.t. put on and being delivered to me on Wednesday. Had to sell my sports bikes as just a tad to uncomfortable for me now ( 70 this year ) . Hope it's fitted with somewhere for me to plug my optimate into as I forgot to check. Seem to remember the battery was a bit of a pain to access. Best regards from Bradford
Paul Staines.

Welcome back Paul!
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
