Anyone near Leeds want to check out a TMax for me?

Sarge: Did you manage to get it for cheaper than advertised?

[michaelphillips]

well done to both you lads, just back off hols and glad to see things have worked out well for you funky and well done sarge

A little but I got what I wanted for the GTS. The image doesn't show how clean the scoot is. I have never seen a four year old machine look so brand new. The previous owner was a little obsessive. The panels have those clear protectors and he even covered the metal footplates so they didn't get marked!

[Funkycowie]

The only dodgy bits I could see on mine were some rust on some of the disc bolts and there seems to be some corrosion on the metal near the ends of the brake lines. I am certain I will be vinyl wrapping my panels as they do look in very good nick... I think mine has stood outside unloved for some of its life... or in a damp garage.

I think you got the better deal, but I needed room in my funds to personalize mine.

First job will be to strip it, inspect and acf50... removal of as many bolts and screws as possible refreshing with copper grease... get some Dr Pulleys, Brisk Sparkplugs and maybe a zorst... need to get rid of some screens I don't use, an old zorst and other bits and bobs to fund stuff.

You are both lucky, lucky, basta.............

Have you a short dark screen? If not will order a dark Givi...

[Funkycowie]

I'll have a look tomorrow... I can't remember what I have.

I've started playing with ideas for vinyl wrapping already... (Picture of old TMax)

Here she is!

Very nice thats a clean bike well done

[MrGrumpy]

Here she is!

Super! The mk3s are definitely the most handsome of the Tmax's, and there's lots of arty little details when you look carefully, all of which vanished when they made the mk4

[Sgt Ernie Bilko]

Agreed. The mark 3 is certainly the most handsome. It still retains the original Tmax shape while the mark 4, although technically better has an angular design which just doesn't float my boat...

... and the external drive belt? I like the enclosed chains much better
