Mmm lovely that.

Yeah it's a shame it has deterrioated, however it will with use.

I have some projects that are mint, and are unlikely the go south any time soon due to the fact I never want to use it.

So sure it's a little worse for wear, but surely that's just down to solid use.

Nice bike.

What is it a wr400?

It was a little gem when luke had this..

Hopefully u can get it back to that standard mate

Really beautiful when luke had it! And that paint was flawless.

Am i right in thinking the last owner ofloaded the cage, seats (black corbeau ) and pexi windows before you got it? He sold purple seats for black ones i remember that much.

I remember from insta he painted the cage black and added the pexi window.

Its been through 2 owners since luke had it... i think it was the last owner that let it go down hill.. such a shame but hopefully get it back on track

The owner after luke looked after this like a baby! Gearbox started to whine and he fancied a change so swapped with last owner ... slammed 320d 👎👎

So I've been cracking on with this car now has a full interior and seat belts that won't kill me thanks to zoib honestly the things I'm finding on this car and the level of workmanship is absolutely shocking changed the rear pads tonight well the little that was left of them to find two bolts had been rounded off and both calipers seised so yeah it was great fun ive also took the bov off and meshed the turbo I know people say not to do it but I've ran all my starlets like that at some point and had no issues and the risk is worth the noise imop

Big service time at the weekend and investigate a few oil leaks

Parts gathered up for a service

Blitz small oil filter

New plugs

New dizzy

New rotor arm

Fuel filter

Engine oil

Box oil

I'll change the coolant when my black hose kit arrives

So yeah plenty of progress I'll got a load of pictures at the weekend

I dunno, seems a bit pickeyish to not run an air filter just for the noise. Especially when you say how bad the car has been looked after, then remove the filter.



At least it's meshed, my car had no filter on it when I got it...cheers.



It's scary what people think is acceptable to leave their car in!

Yeah still got it, smoking and swarf on the sump plug, still deciding what to do with it lol time for a forged engine maybe mate ;)

Funny enough was thinking about your car the other day mine has the same turbo kit and a cracked screamer in the exact same place must be a problem with wepr screamers seen quite a few cracked now pain in the ass
