Well, what can I say - the Bike went for more than I was prepared to spend on it - haveing finally convinced the seller to let me see it it needed a lot more work doing than the ever optimistic item description. Had it gone for sub £300 I may well have got it, but it didnt and the prospect of stripping barrels down, repainting the bike and frame, stripping the carbs and freeing the back brake put me off. Lumpy at tickover wasnt the half of it!
So decided to drown my sorrows by throwing some (more) money at the AX again and getting my clunking driveshafts sorted out.

Me too Stewart. I miss having a propper bike ( the Plack 90 is just a means to an end and a way of getting into town without having to bother about parking). But sadly money is always against me.
Decided against the ZX once I had had a propper look at it as it was merely metalic painted scrap. Mind you still tempted to get another ZX, the AX just isnt warming my cockles the same.
Quite interested in Tom's ideas about doing a "raid" in any old Cit, and wonder if my AX is up to a trip to St. Petersburg?
