fabrini touring screen.
Rims are in good shape (recently got a new front rim)

Bad stuff...
Tank and left fairing has been scratched but painted to hide it very well. I didnt even notice.
Could do with new chain and sprockets in a couple of thousand miles.
General wear and tear that you'd expect from an 11 year old bike.
Ignition key doesnt match seat lock (plenty of keys though)
I've invested about £3000 in this bike over the last 12-18 months. I was going to put it up for sale in the Autumn for £2750 but if someone offers me something like that before then, i'd be hard pressed to turn them down !!
