Hi Guys and Girls,
I am about to buy a Afica Twin, It is a RD07A, 55000km on the clock, has been neglected so will need quite a bit of work. The bike was standing for a while and it seems it was outside. Lots of rust on bolts. Seat is torn. It also lead to one piston having to be replaced, cylinders honed and new rings. The bike is currently at a shop. They did the piston, rings and cleaned the carbs as they were also jammed up.
The bike is missing a ECU. Does anyone know what they go for new? are there aftermarket ones available? Or does anyone know where i can source a second hand one.
Apart from this i need to change the choke cable and she should run. However there are alot of other issues to sort out like suspension, braking, cosmetics etc.
Thanks for the help.
