This bike had been in barn since the mid XX's. It has been cleaned it up bit, replaced the clutch housing and some of the gearbox bearings, wiring loom, ignition coil. The VX is present and fully valid. The frame has been powder coated and is in good condition, the paint work, chrome and saddle are also in good condition. It will look great when it has been finished, and all the original decals replaced. No decals are with it. All parts and spares are readily available on line, we bought most of ours from http://yambits.co.uk/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=SRXXX 
My son was doing the work, but has now gone back to Uni, need the space in my garage, so he put it back together, as it has to go. We have not had it running.
Looks like the chain had come off and got jammed, whoever owned it before then just left it in the barn.
