Omschrijving
Reluctant sale of my 2001 Gilera Cougar, 125cc motorbike.
I have the ownership paperwork X1 pre mot cert (2015-2016) which had no advisories.
Starts and runs just fine, all gears select very smooth.
Serviced by myself (Castrol oil, oil filter, air filter and iridium spark plug) also cleaned the carb.
Had new heavy duty chain and sprockets, however I have lost the receipt, clear by looking at them they are new. Fitted at a garage.
Brand new rear tyre, Michelin Pilot Street, very grippy wet and dry.
Battery is fine.
Dry stored in my shed.
Not been started in a while but will run fine.
Currently sorn because of the work needed
X1 key
Low mileage for year stated on Mot 13352
BAD POINTS
Obvious age related marks nothing to bad.
As the description states little project -
No speedo old one stopped working, very common with these, needs a new one, very cheap on eBay.
Could do with a new front tyre for the colder and wetter months.
Rear break light is intermittent, tried a new bulb, new unit and checked all connections and wiring in the loom. Only thing I haven't tried is a new break light switch (good place to start, very cheap)
Could do with a new clutch cable a little stretched through age, however not necessary.
The main issues is the rear wheel, these are a common problem with these bikes, very weak, it's broken about 6 spokes, the wheel needs re spoked, it's about £110 as I have got a quote for it. Not accident damage I hit a speed bump and they broke.
Once all the bad points are covered this will be a very nice learner and commuter bike.
ANY questions message me or comment, posted elsewhere.
