If I was offered a sport 160 with verniers, remappable ECU and suitable map for £1100 should I rip his arm off?
I have no reason to doubt it's heritage, owner has honda'd up

I can't really justify £1100 anyway.... (Unless £1100 is really cheap

)
I don't think that my S1 is worth a fat lot ATM!

Judging by Stu's 160, I don't think "tinker" covers it...!
Mind that's not excatly standard!

OK possible change of plan (No really

)
I might have found a complete Minster head for free

I have no idea of it's condition yet. If I get my sticky mitts on it I'll see what minster have to say about it, it's bound to have a serial number somewhere.
