Been without a bike for a few months after promising I wouldn't buy another one.. 
Picked this up the other day, management light on, no mot or tax and filthy. 3 days later and its on the road all sorted.
Put a tail tidy on it and a new plate and thats about it for now.

Will get a can when I can find a second hand one, new ones are ridiculous prices.
Yeh the paints got a satin laquer on it, tempted to get the panels re-laquered to give it a shine. Its growing on me though.

A mate had one exactly the same, and have to say I preferred the Matt silver/bronze to the traditional green in this shape 636.
What happened to the GSX-R?

Paid 3k for it. The management light was on due to the exhaust valve being siezed solid due to 100miles use in last year. Stripped back end of it and took 5 mins to free up.
Its a 1 owner, 9k mile bike so thought 3k was pretty reasonable.

Made a bit of money on it and it would never be as clean as I wanted it so flogged it.

Nah I dont feel comfy on them, my mates got one and it just feels too cramped for me.
Lovely bikes though..
