Yamaha Thunderace 1000r 1997 Bike with me being the third owner, just over 38000 miles. 
Rides well engine sounds sweet and for age good condition.
Has upgrades of:- Slip on silencer (no name on it but it is Beowolf Satinless) not too loud but sounds more meety and feels like it has given some more power.Carbon Fibre look huggerCarbon Fibre Yolk protector and tank padDatatagAlarm.Non slip pillion seat coverAir Hawke copy seat cover (seat itself is fine with no issues)Otherwise standard.
New tyres last year with less than 500 miles on them. New clutch last year with less than 200 miles on it, re-con rear shock fitted last year at same time as tyres. chain and sprokets are about years old with probably only around 800 1000 miles on them
Everything works as it should exup valve working.
To be as honest as can the last photo's show some small cracks in the plastics, the blue photo is just under the seat (should be an easy repair), the one near the handlebars is in the fairing by the screen (again easy repair) and the last one is on the front mudguard, which has been repaired and just needs tidying up as looks bit messy. Paint is little flat (and feels rough) on couple of small patches of the tank has been like this since brought it 5-6 years ago and have never got round to t-cutting it or similar.
MOT until April 2017 and has advisory of "front shock absorber has light misting of stanchion offside", everything looks in order so guess it could probably just do with some fork seals.
relisted due to buyer not paying
