I finally got around to washing the new toy and took a couple of photos! She's a 2000 model with 40,000km. Performed well at the Albury TT and was slightly more comfortable over the long distance than I was expecting 
I agree with Binny - the gearbox is outstanding!
It's got a few mods by previous owner. Most notable are the carbon bits including the airbox, Ohlins rear shock, alloy wheels, and full ti exhaust. Needless to say I won't need to spend much on bling! It's got a few little cosmetic issues that need attention as you'd expect with a 14yo bike, and with the raised rear the side stand is somewhat lacking so I'll have to 'extend' it or bolt on another one.
