No longer for sale, I decided to keep it for the time being.
I'm selling this bike because I'm looking for something a bit more specialised.
This is a great beginner's machine because it is robust and easy to ride & maintain.
It's a Puzey XTR4 Motard from S.Africa. It is 3 1/2 years old, Mot'd till April 2016
It's in pretty good condition apart from a few minor scuffs. It's done 1,700 miles.
It has electric start and the suspension can be lowered very quickly via a cam system.
I'm looking for £1500 for it. |

Right, I have now got a new bike so this one has to go, I can negotiate on price.
Everything works, got new sticker kit in bag, new mirrors.
Will make a good run around for somebody, very well mannered.

What's the new bike Mike ? Not picked it up yet, it's a Husaberg 470 from 2003. Now the guy's saying it won't start because it's been stood a couple of years. I'll find out over the next few days whether I've made an error or not.

Left foot kickstart? I think they were always a bit temperamental when cold, but nice bikes when they are going.

I've taken it to Dave Clarke Racing and asked him to strip the carb, service bike, and MOT it. Seems in good nick and D Clarke supplied it originally and has serviced it till recently. I've put the Puzey on Ebay, ends Sunday. Wish I didn't have to sell it as everything is working on it and it's looking good.

The problem for me could be starting it. Apparently this older model has an electric assist, you kick start it from cold and after that you can use the leccy start. We shall see...

This Puzey is no longer for sale.
It's a heavy bike but I'm going to live with it and plod on.
Husaberg was a great bike, but not for me. I want low maintenance and a fan-assisted cooling system plus proper electric start.
In the longer term I'll get something a bit lighter, but at the moment I'm trying to buy a camper van so I can't shell out on a new bike.
