Purple. I mean, purple. What on earth possessed the PO to paint it that colour? It's not even as if it's candy metalflake purple with iridescent flares or something; it's a plain bare flat purple. The same kind of purple your big toe goes when you drop a weight on it and your toenail is about to fall off.
So, get it running again, fix the leaks, throw a tin of black paint on it and good to go.
The brakes are in bits, but all the bits are there, new hoses, etc. Some of the chrome is a bit tatty - rear fender, as usual with these. On the good side, the rubber is good, the tank is sound and the cycle parts at one time were very well maintained and improved, until the PO. I don't think he really gave much of a stuff about it.
48K miles - not really a huge amount for one of those if looked after properly. I'm keeping my fingers crossed it has been.
