My 30 days grace before having my account deleted are nearly up, so I guess I had better make my first post. I've been looking for one for a while, and have finally been lucky enough to get hold of a TR1/XV1000 at a reasonable price. It's not roadworthy yet, but all the bits are there, and she is a runner. Main thing is a new exhaust system, so I guess I'll be giving MAC a call unless there are any other suggestions for suppliers.
Anyhow, I was wondering if someone could help out with a bit of information. The bikes VIN number is 5K8-0012xx and I'm curious what year this would have been made? There are some indications that it may have been imported to the UK as a used bike from Japan, and does the model number back that up? And finally, she has a tubular chrome sump guard that I've not seen before. Was this a factory fitment, or an aftermarket item? Thanks in advance, this forum has already been a mine of information, and I'm sure it will be again if I ever get started on the rebuild.
