Nice bike, but a small tank is wrong for an S1 lightning strike.

Looks nice to me. It's not a Strike but then the ad doesn't say that it is.
It has had the new disc and isolators but that shock needs replacing (again) with the later Showa or good aftermarket jobbie.

So, what is a Strike? I thought a Strike was an S1 that wasn't white but had Thunderpant heads from the factory...

This bike has been talked about before ( would have been just before the forum change over) , the one with the broken front engine mount bolt that was noticed in one of the pics by someone on here with go-go-gadget eyes! :o
Guess he's had it repaired now, but when i chatted about it ( was going to go have a look) he'd already turned down an offer of 3.7k, and my pockets arn't that deep! :headbang: :sad1:

Hmmm, I'm sure when I first looked it said Lightning Strike in the description. Pash must have read it too because that's how he titled this thread. Maybe the seller edited it? I am certain I didn't dream that up. If I did, then I retract my comments.

Pash, Lightning Strike is an S1W spec bike that isn't White, done as a run out to the S1 model IIRC.

A good bike to avoid it seems. Always best to buy one of these that we know something about if possible I reckon. I'll bet he lurks here anyway.
