2001 Yamaha XJR1300
A very reliable bike. Has 118,000kms on the clock but motor very sound. Does not blow any smoke and very easy start. Within the last year I have had these things done to it. Full service which included new battery, front fork seals replaced. One was leaking a little so got them both replaced. October last year oil and filter change, new drive chain, rear brake pads and new front tyre. Also had new longer hydraulic brake line fitted so I could have handle bar risers, (50mm) fitted. Easy to remove. Also have put on new mirrors. A feature I like that was put on by a previous owner. When using indicators you have a loud beeping sound so you can hear it. No way are you going to forget to turn them off. Great safety factor. This a good reliable set of wheels and will give you lots of joy as your go for a ride up the line to have coffee and sticky bun or away for the weekend. Why am I selling you ask. I'm in my 70's and my wife wont come with me. So I have just bought a trike so now we can do our trips to Taupo to visit family and day rides around Northland. I will put three months rego on it for the buyer. The WOF is good till October. Price negotiable.
