My sig has most all the mods. But I bought a 1992 this spring and fixed it up. Suspension, jets, petcock, fork brace, filter, adjusted valves at 17,400 miles, fancy footpegs for more room. I have an uninstalled F-18? windscreen. Doesn't seem to burn oil much. Maybe a quart in 1500 miles?

New chain and tires 2000 miles ago.

I rebuilt the forks with the new springs, but I am no good, so they weep. But it handles fine. I suppose after a while someone would want to fix it, or at least refill the oil occasionally.

Handles great, have a stock rear shock if you want. A fair amount of spares. A small ding in the tank, nothing major. Best of all, it is purple!

I commute to work with it. Power delivery is smooth with those jets. Clear title.

Located north of Boston.

or maybe I will just keep riding until spring.

Am I asking too much?




the purple one with that little ding in the tank
