There was no history of a rebuild when i got ! he let me have it for the day so i could compression and seal test,compresions were 6 bar with even jumps so i knew this day was coming up,i didnt pay much for it and it had a pretty gd spec apart the fuel system and manegment . i planned to use it all summer and rebuild through the winter but i think my man foot might have brought it forward :D.
