Welcome Josh.
Good to see the little AR being used as intended, a great learner bike with attitude and loads more character than the modern breed of 4yawn strokes..
What's the model, looks like a B5 with a dose of old school ?
Cheers

Hi shaun
Its an A2 with a b6 engine fitted at the moment, I have been trying to source an a2 engine with no luck so far.
It is currently being used as my commuter which is fun but the miles are racking up fast. I have been looking into the kh models and they see like ideal commuters.
I have a full set of decals to be fitted when it has a full respray but as my other half and I are expecting a little boy in a few months, my bike fund got converted into the baby fund.
I first picked up this bike and a b8 in bits in dec 2011 for £470.
It was a bit of a mess, so I have proceeded to replace parts as and when I can get hold of them.

Would just like to say a massive thank you to top shaggy, I woke up today to a parcel full of goodies to get her running sweet again. I also had a nice little package from cradley kawasaki.
I will post some pics of the bits and work done later or tomorrow.

Just took her out for a quick ride and its running great apart from the clutch!
So I will be ordering an ebc plate set and springs as soon as funds allow.
it has also developed a new buzzing noise from the front end so this will have to be looked at aswell. |

Buzzing noise could be a dry cable ie tacho or speedo needs oiling or just a small spray of WD40 or GT85 where the cables go into. |
