Looks like a good machine and good deal at that price

Nice bike, is it hard to get stuff in from NZ?

Nice bike. They are a really good Vinduro mount and are a hoot in VMX! That bike gas the rare correct tail light but has the water cooled tank fitted. The DC plastics make it look very tidy. If it is "race ready" then the price is a steal so far.

be aware if it has sat for years there was an issue with the crankcases rotting out.

rods are next to impossible to find although the HVA factory has just had a new batch made $$$$

hard to tell when it was last running. good looking bike. they have funny power!

it starts off nice then dies then has a little squirt at the top.

not hard to broaden it out.

shouldn't be much to get it from UnZud?

Hes claiming the fork legs are identical to the drum brake versions  :-\ to me they have extra castings for the disc caliper .

Am I wrong ?

   The way I read it ..... "  so the front end is a WR400 disc brake but have all the parts to convert back to drum front end

disc casting only difference, the disc legs still have the drum arm attachment holes.
