Hi folks,
This is a bit of a big ask, but I am looking for a sound NTV650 engine. I am gutted to leaen mine is not economical to repair. I would consider a payment plus exchange (if you are mechanically minded) - oil leaking into collector box etc...
Any help here would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards
Chris

Looks like fire damage.

Mainly bringing attention to engine as not thought of logistics.
Great Malvern is closer to Derby. (Than it is to Milton Keynes.)
Personally; Had I the time & means to collect, I would have a little punt.
(Just now I'd chance it on spec for water pump & other spares a bonus.)
But; I'm only 50 miles or so South of it, so caught my eye as a chancer.

I understand your thought, i wasnt having a go.
I used to run a bike breakers years ago and fire damaged engines can be a right can of worms due to heat distortion etc.

Valued opinion, & no offence taken...
I'd assumed colouring to be the genral detritus of storage.
(Cables coverings 'look' clean, not pulled about or charred.)

Hi folks,
Thank you so much for your replies, it is much appreciated. I have discussed my bike with a local mechanic and he suggests (overall) either purchasing a good bike (NTV of course) or one I can use as a donar. Therefore, I need to save for a while and look at what is on offer. Once again thank you.
Kind regards
Chris
