Yamaha XJ600 pre diversion 1989

[voyager72]

Hi, For Sale is my Yamaha XJ600 pre-diversion, registered May 1989 ‘F’ reg.
in stunning lovely looking metallic pearl orange and grey, (both factory colours if ever anything needs touching up).
Mot till June 2014, taxed till November. Just insure and off you go.
It now needs to go for two main reasons, its not being used as I have few bikes and I need the room for more new projects.
Mileage at last MOT’s
2011 -39517m, 2012 -39640m, 2013 -39713m, still showing less than 39800,

So what’s been done,
Well over the last few years its had the frame and swinging arm powder coated, replaced the steering head bearings, front and rear wheel bearings, sprocket carrier bearing, seals, some rear suspension bushes and had grease nipples fitted to the linkage, replaced the rear shock, new front fork seals and fork oil, engine oil and filter, new chain, both sprockets and front tyre. Rear tyre about 45% and all brake pads good.

Seat professionally recovered and the eye catching full respray,
The alloy rear grab rail, fork brace and lower fork legs have been polished.
Since all this work its only covered about 300 miles, the actual reading now is just over 39,700 miles.

So anything wrong, well although it runs well there is occasionally a slight hesitation at high revs, 6k +, not all the time, possibly through lack of use. There is a small crack in the plastic of the speedo surround and it has the usual with this age a few marks in the fork stantions, but they were no problem for the test.

Iam wanting £825, Viewing is no problem Cash on collection, ‘no’ cheques please. er forgot, contact number 07760 205521, iam near the M1 junction 41 and the M62 junction 30, West Yorkshire,
thanks for looking.

Thanks, does look smart if i say so myself,
its just not being used as much as it should as i have others, not had much ineterst so may just have to go back in the garage,

If I could run to the cost of 2 bikes I'd have this, it's lovely. I couldn't bring myself to use it daily though which is what I need from a bike

Thanks dungbug,its a nice bike but its just time to move on,im still going to find out what the mid range hesitation problem is if it doesnt sell then its off one way or another you know when youve had enoungh, ive done all i want to do to it,
ive other projects to get on with, cant move for them, i have recently finished my blackbird, which is nice if i say so my self, and thats to keep, well for now!
but then to start i have two xj650's, two xz55o's an xj550, z200, honda chaly for her in doors and a yr3, plus a couple of cars.
no im not made of money just picked them up at good prices over the years. but they all take up room which is now getting too full.
