Sorry about the thread jacking but everytime I see the name Bytor it makes me think *snowdog*.

Ha ha yes!!! Fly By Night was a great album by my favourite band a few years ago. Saw Rush live a few years ago and the old stuff knocks socks off the new stuff

Austin is a great place for music, that's for sure. Rush, what a great band. I'm old enough to have bought Fly by Night on vinyl when it was first released.

Bytor, may be a simple explanation for the speedo not running, so I wouldn't discount the bike just for that. An extra 20,000 K's on these bikes is nothing anyway, even if it was that high.
Probably just the stupid plastic nut that runs the speedo,(off the sprocket) or a broken cable.
If the bike doesn't rattle at startup, chances are she's good to go. Just ride her and see.
Check the oil and note colour - if anything except a honey colour, needs changing.
