Per the OP, it's a 2002. Only two previous owners, neither of them you! Last chap bought it in 2004, with just 3695 miles on it, has had it 12 years! Current mileage 6783 as per the pic!

(As you might expect with such low miles, the carbs will come off for a proper clean as she runs a bit lumpy - something I knew before purchase).

It didn't get a chance to get dirty. (bit like mine currently though I still haven't cleaned it since I put it away manky last weekend )
	Heated grips are for the elderly, ladies and those who would like to be ladies. :-) There are 2 rules for success: 1) never reveal everything you know. 5% of the nation is approx. 3.25million people. Even the Seville calculator wouldn't claim that many fans. :-) GSX1250FA, XJ900s, GS850, CB100, enough room to swing a cat should the mood take me.
