Hi
Picking up a 2002 748R next week, no. 408 in great condition with a little TLC required (some minor cosmetic stuff) with 18,000km on the clock.
Original apart from handlbar grips (OEM come with it though), and aftermarket steering damper.
Handing over the cash tomorrow (equivalent of just over 6000gbp)
I have some questions I hope you can help with:
1. What is the best place for carbon parts? The two panels either side of the handlebars bar (air ducts?) have some slight marks, if I can't clean them up will replace them with carbon.
2. Whats a good price for an original Ohlins steering damper?
3. The exhaust needs a good clean; Is there a preferred method to clean them up, scotch pad/elbow grease?
4. The frame has a few very minor paint chips so I need original paint code, does anyone know where I can find this?
5. Headlights have misted/fogged; Does anyone know of a good website for secondhand OEM parts?
6. Left side mirror glass has been replaced but the magnification is off and vehicles appear a lot closer than the right mirror. Can anyone recommend a place to get as close to OEM mirror as possible.
Thank you in advance.
