WANTED Gen 1 RSV Mille - FOUND ONE!
I am now the proud owner of a Gen1 2000MY RSV Mille R! Thanks to everyone who contacted me on the forum, your comments and help are much appreciated,

I travelled up to Hull to collect and it was well worth the trip (155 miles) even though I had to call out the recovery people before I made it home! Turned out just to be a knackered battery, so got a Yuasa one on order - Found out that RSV's do not bump start, not even in second or third gear! It started on the jumped leads first go and rode it the rest of the way home (40 miles).
First impressions are great bike, sweet engine, handles well, quality suspension and excellent brakes, hard to believe that the one I have is 17 year's old, looking forward to doing more miles after not riding a bike for about 14 years,
John.
