Funny about your MOT and taking out the GN.
Just about to do the same.Got rid of the CBR and quite glad I did, let me spruce up the SV after a partial engine rebuild.
Took it out to fuel up and I have no idea how I toured Europe on it.
It. Is. Tiny. Tiny and angry.
Forgot I put an R6 throttle tube on it so it was exciting manoeuvring on it.Looks great with them, but reckon the clip-ons will have to go.
Tiger got a service done and new cam chain tensioner. Original exhaust will go back on as the aftermarket one is waaaay too loud.

Well, I am loathe to do any more work on it until I know it passes MOT this afternoon. A bit nervous.
If it fails for reparable reasons then maybe I add camchain to the list. If it passes, I’m conflicted on keeping it as a runabout and selling it to make space for something more useful. If I sell, I’ll just advise the new owner.
Guy I know has a bone stock unmolested 90’s XJ600N (50k on the clocks I think) with almost no issues. Had advertised around £1100, but with a view of getting £900 if I was interested. Even if I get a stupid low price for the GN, that makes the XJ affordable as a road miles bike.
