I nearly bought it bought it back for Lynne to use, but she already had the mighty CB250
Still has that strange little noise just at start off, but I give up. It still goes.
Hah...just wondering if you ever sold a bike TWICE (TRICE?) and bought it back TWICE (TRICE)
The CB-noise....it sure is a baffler, but it seems to just keep going.
Had a replacement engine from
110motorcycles in SEQ after drowning the Postie in saltwater creeks 3 times on Fraser Island in 2008/ 09.
The thing had a gearbox whine in 1. and 2. to drive you nutz!
Rode the bloody thing up to Cairns, another 5000km of hard going to Cape York and back, then sold it after the transport back to MEL.
Caught up with the folks who bought it and did a Great Central Rd. trip from WA to Byron Bay, another 4500k's of gearbox whine and loads of hard sand riding!
Never, ever gave any trouble for a second.... aside from that horrible gearbox noise suggesting it'd shit itself within the next 20 seconds.
No idea what happened to that CT afterwards...but she'd done around 20.000km of bloody hard yakka by then.
