Evening, picked up this little raptor 1000 on Monday, It's a dog, used for commuting for 20,000 miles, with 31,000 on the clock, 3 previous owners. MOT until October. My plan is to run it until the MOT runs out then get the scabby frame & swingarm powder coated & see what other bits need renewing. I've spent the last 4 days tightening bolts up, only real problem I have found, the answers in the search function (eratic throttle). Heres a picture, enjoy..

Its been down the road at least once that I know of!

Good to see you've taken this project on. The first thing to cure is it's apparent incontinence! Sorry.. :naughty:

Took it to work today, no rear light..unless I toggled the switch, then no brake light, put it away.. just been out to have a look and it's fixed! Let the fun & games begin :thumbsup:

The incontinence was a Renault! Used/pissed more oil than diesel. :oops:
