Bought this week, this SP3 is absolutely stock apart from the bar end mirror and lack of radiator side reflectors.

I'll let the photos do the talking.

Before the mirrors were removed.

Bar end fitted and small number plate replaced with stock sized plate.

Love it Rob, nice gutsy bike, already well on the way to cafe raced, bet it didn't cause the bank manager a coronary either. Very much underrated bikes IMO.

Yes cheap as chips really, given its condition and history. The prices are beginning to go up now so depreciation is not an issue.

It didn't take long to change the exhausts for these SP Engineering items, secondhand from Ebay Cool

Cheers. 3 former owners covered 31,000 miles in 19 years. The bike has not seen much rain judging by the complete lack of road grime found when I took the tank off.
