XBR500 I built this during lockdown, the engine has an xl600 crankshaft and a 100mm wiseco piston with a dominator cylinder head makes it around 630cc, the carb is rejetted and it runs really well, Black Widow stainless downpipes with pit bike alloy mufflers, the forks are rebuilt with new bushings and seals, a new wavy disc with a rebuilt caliper and new pads, rearsets, new chain and sprockets, new shocks swing arm bearings, powder coated frame, swingarm and fork lowers and some polishing by Gary at promopolishing in Hockley. gorgeous black paint by another Gary at Spraypoint in the sticks lol. Rear end has been cut and a new hoop welded to the frame which has rear light indicator led attached. the number plate bracket was made by Mark the welder from stainless steel with an led number plate light, tyres are slightly oversized Avon Roadriders. It's mot'd and ready to go, anything not mentioned will have been refurbished or replaced. Offers around £3000😁

as we're all bored I thought I'd right some new laws under my dictatorship 😂
all overly wide vehicles ( range rovers, caymens etc and people carriers) to be taxed at £10,000 per year. the school run to be banned, only cycling or walking, you don't need a people carrier to pick up your fat kid.
that should help filtering for bikes, which of course will be tax exempt providing they do a minimum of 2000 miles per year, 😏 restored bikes that never come out will be seized and raced!!! then returned to the owners so they can restore for the next thrashing 😝😂
next time bike licensing laws........
