Hi Richard I am looking at purchasing a new old stock cafe racer in Australia where I live it is plated 2015 but I think buil 2014 If I go ahead and purchase this bike what updates do you think it would need. I own several English classic bikes including two 850 Commandos
I would also appreciate if I could get copies of you manuals, I have been following your progress on sorting the problems on these bikes and I am to confident to purchase one and be an active part of this group. I have read with interest the recent posts relating to the experience,s of Bushman with the crank and rockers. I visited the factory when it was at Donnington in 2012 with the intention putting a deposit on a new one and being one of the first owners in Australia.
Allan Jeans who was the sales manager at the time arranged for me to have a tour of the facility with the service manager.
After the tour and what I observed I elected not to put a deposit down until there production processes had improved. Especially process of engine assembly and the open unclean area where they were assembling them. However from what I have been reading they still have a way to go but I really am lean to buy especially after spending a full day riding my friends 961
