as you note, the link was just some piccies. as for re-bores, that's already in hand. having heard of oil starvation problems and not wanting to sell a pup - I take pride in my bikes! - I stripped the top-end and checked the bore. it was still in tolerance, but I decided to get it re-bored anyhow. all the parts are now back and I'll be re-assembling the engine on Easter sunday/monday. you're welcome to come take a look while its in pieces if you can get to Bristol.
as the other posts indicate, its really not so old and anyway its just been fully checked. plus it has a kick-start just in case you ever need it. it'll work out a lot cheaper and easier than starting from scratch! the boxes cost 500, the rack 500, the large tank for a dommie would be 200, exhaust 200, GPS 200 ...
