As both tax and insurance had expired longer time ago, i had to expose the bike to a "road-worthiness" type of test in order to change registration and bring it back on the road. The following picture shows the bike just a couple of days after i bought it, and minutes before taking off for that test:
Only the "absolutely necessary" things had been fixed - new tyres, all electrical bits working, brakes working, speedmeter and tachometer cables installed, new seat leather (vinyl or something), tank cap, all foot rests and chain/sprockets set. Also i removed other unnecessary bits (that front fairing and the main stand).
Next picture is a few days later, after i had my new license plate (with the iconic "404 - file not found" number) and fixed the last bits, such as the seat locks:
