Anything issues with this model? I am looking for something that's easier to start and lighter. Wouldn't paint it but get it sorted and reliable. Not sure what a good price is but can see it selling for £4500 or more. Thanks John

Are spares available for the 250s?

Spares are available, not all of them though. Generally more difficult than for the bigger bikes, smaller market, less valuable, so less demand.

Spares for the LF/LB 250 aren't really available. You can get repro silencers but thats about it.
