Thanks everyone.
I have a couple of projects already, just no parallel twins.I recommend having bikes that run and bikes that do not, learning never ends.
Nailed it right there.I think with the interceptor 650 you get a old school twin (and its a great engine box etc make no mistake) that actually is what the older twins in many cases were not.
I am a super cheapskate when it comes to bike cars ... pretty much everything really. I want a bike with issues but a known quantity, it can have been dropped or even neglected left outside or some electrical gremlin down to incompetent fiddling, or over ambitious stripped and then abandoned project, is a firm favorite of mine, i got many bikes over the years as stripped parts piles dragged out from dank storage mostly in cardboard boxes at times.Sounds like a good plan, now to find the right bike. I looked within a 350 mile radius and found one at a good price that nobody local was buying and nobody else wanted to make the trip for.
No i have not and have been looking very hard over the past few weeks its not like there is a shortage of them and they seem to be falling in price too but more the recent ones where the first owners a really feeling the hit upon trying to move them on, but even then its the older ones i want are about a grand £1200 more than i want to spend.That's no fun Matty, have you tried the RE forums?
