she's a 91 j1 .. always liked the model .. think it's one of the nicest looking ...love the rawness of it .
she is coming off the road in a month for a rebuild and respray ..
it's gunna be in ford focus st pearl orange with a black satin frame .. swinger and wheels .. and a stubby moto gp style can .. ..

very exited :-)

the only prob i have at the moment is the lights on the clocks dont work :-( ... cant find the fault ( or a fuse lol ) .... but no real prob ... i paid £800 for her with 12 months mot ... and a friend is going to spray her , and the frame ect will be powder coated , was gunna polish ... but that seems high maintanance .. so the satin powder should be good ..

want a real raw look

My best friend had a 7 just like yours. I LOVED that bike; rode like it was on rails. (I've said it before) the 7 was developed heavily through the efforts of Scott Russell and Team Muzzy. A bit heavy by today's standards, but in capable hands can surprise a lot of riders.
Beautiful bike, Matt. Hang onto it (or sell it to me.)
