That would be rather more than I'm willing (or need) to spend.

 

But, but they are pure unobtainium - almost. This kind of transaction
was much less painful on the pocket when the euro was worth about 70
pence. I wouldn't have bought a bungalow and a Voxan otherwise.

I was just going on the sort of prices for OEM YZ stuff. The crank/rod
assembly in particular has got to sting a bit I'd have thought.

/Used/ to be pure unobtainium, but not anymore by the looks of it. I'll
try to find out the full story. They're either having bits made, or
have found a large stash of spares somewhere. I suspect the latter as I
can't believe they'd have cylinders made.

Ain't that the truth :-(
