Ik heb deze motor in maart 1994 nieuw gekocht in Adelaide, Zuid-
Ik denk dat er niet veel van deze motors zijn in Australië, ik heb maar een keer een andere gezien, maar er zijn er ongetwijfeld nog een paar. Die andere was te koop bij een motordealer, ongeveer twee jaar voordat ik mijn motor kocht. Toen ik die gezien had moest ik er ook een hebben, liefde op het eerste gezicht!
I bought it new in March of 1994 in Adelaide, South Australia. It is plated 12/93 so I am guessing its one of the last. It is the big valve/40mm carb etc type. It came with points ignition but I have fitted a Dynatec pointless set up. I have also changed the carby tops to the straight pull type which made a significant difference to the throttle weight. I have also fitted Staintune crossover and mufflers, they are Australian made from stainless, no baffles, the sound is terrific. I fitted this system when the bike was new and have the original stored away. I have kept all the original bits so I can return it to standard if needed. It has done 95,000 k's (2012), so far I have replaced the uni joint, one battery and in the process of replacing the steering damper, you might notice in the pics it is not fitted. I dont particularly like the fairing it has fitted but I put it on to give some protection to the instruments and front area. It is a fantastic bike and I would never part with it.
I dont think there are many in Australia, I have only ever seen one other but no doubt there are a few around. The only other one I have seen was in a bike shop for sale about two years before I bought mine, as soon as I saw it I just had to have one. Love at first sight !
