    Hello Evil Twin and welcome.

    A CSR? Think I may have seen that bike before but not 100% sure. Did you get it from a guy in Rochdale?
    The CSR is my market. I have 4 and many spares too including wiring harnesses, Ignition units, coils etc. Shout if you need anything

    beef bought it,rode it till it gave him probs
    think he gave it to a m8 of his to fettle it
    but the guy just had no idea what he was doing
    i had to totally rewire the bike,
    it only had 1 inline fuse
    disaster waiting to happen 2bh

    HaaHaa Evil Twin

    That bike use to be mine. I know it quite well. Yes your right was Oldham not Rochdale.

    When I bought it it was a very sad Y1 LTD model. I sold it to Hoggy who did an amazing transformation. I can tell you it has a B1 engine in it which does significantly change the wiring. Beef joined this site and we offered to go round and help him sort the issues but he never took us up on the offer.

    So there you go.

    Officially you have a Y1 LTD (1983 on log book?) with mods.

    Shout up if you need any help.
