Hi Cream its a 96 bike, i have the original bill of sale plus a Warranty Maintenance booklet. It has the Cagiva elephant embossed onto the filler cap, if this means anything. Looking at it i will not add anything just keep it in this condition.
Beautiful looking stock bike, I'd keep her as is wouldn't change a thing - it's a very slippery slope
I know 916s fetch good money but £7500 the 998 is a better bike with ohlins rear tin coated forks 3 phase electrics and a far superior engine my honest opinion is the 998 I had was far better value at £6300 with less than 8k on the clock just saying that's all.
Plus one on Tobytykes comment, keep everything standard and original. There are very few truly bog standard 916's out there and it is getting quite rare to find one so resist the temptation to bling it up, you will be glad you did in years to come.
Stick the bits in a box, I've spent 6 months eBay the bits I need to make her OEM and cleaned them up and stuck them in a draw.
