Wanted - Any cheap winter bikes out there?

£1200 750cc not mine but have ridden it, does 60mpg rides really well with the leading links. Paint scheme is a lot to be desired but it sounds like a supermoto. Can put you in contact with the owner who lives in Snodland on the A228 kent.

Ah, that bike

Did it have those leading link forks when I saw it last?

It did indeed. You just need to look past the yellow paint

. What is underneath is a very competent bike. It was an R45 but has R80 sleeved barrels and 750 Guzzi pistons. 23L tank and on a trip to Scotland last year was averaging 62 mpg. It is quite low as he lowered the seat. Header pipes are SS but the can is Ali. If I was looking for a good solid commuter I would buy it but I already have a Beemer and a blade so no room for another.
