    Bought myself a GSXF750 last week, supposedly accident damaged.
    More like it fell over on a gravel carpark surface and due to it's age the insurance wrote it off.
    One new clutch lever, gear shifter, oil and filter change, spark plugs and a good 'ol dose of the carbs through the ultrasonic cleaner later, it's all MOT'd again and on the road.
    Forgotton how light these bikes were; having much fun throwing it through the bends:D
