trebor4460 0 Posted April 28, 2011 Thats absolute mint, now i aint one for leaving anything standard but i would be tempted to leave it stock, not many mrk 1 in that mint standard condition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stue11 0 Posted April 28, 2011 Tell you what mate i would leave her completely standard, lets face it how many of these beuatys do you still all original and in such fine condition it. Thats my opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted April 28, 2011 Really nice and low miles. I met someone the other day with a 97 MK1 B1200 that had 8k miles on it and thought that was low but this is a great find Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpyowl 0 Posted April 29, 2011 Don't cut anything off ...you can put renthals on because you can keep the originals to put back on.dont piss about with the indicators and lights and wiring.yes put your own stamp on Her but only do things you can reverse an put back to standard without spoiling her. Very Nice find by the way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
