Started a thread a while ago

After spending a few weeks struggling to find time to put my other bike back on the road I have realised I just dont have time maintaining 2 bikes. I ride all year round & the Aprilia probably isnt a all year round kind of bike!
Good bits
Lovely looking bike & sounds great.
New battery
Starts first time
All electrics working
Genuine Aprilia carbon fibre wind deflectors & front mudguard
New ASV brake lever
Fuel f1r exhaust with removable baffle fitted
Original exhaust & Seat pad
The upgraded clutch jet (not fitted but will come with bike)

The bad bits
The bike has been dropped, some scuffs to to one side, i have touched this up & doesnt look bad.
The bike failed the Mot last month on the following things:
Exhaust noise
Steering lock stops ineffective
Wheel has excessively distorted bead rim (photos of this in the attached thread) doesnt look that bad to me
Needs a new front tyre
Rear suspension movement stiff
Rear suspension component excessively corroded (link plates)
Front brake binding
Rear brake is inoperative (couldnt manage to bleed the bloody thing no matter how many positions i hung or spun it)!
Two advisorys:
Steering head bearing slight freeplay
Oil leak from cooler (I still havent found where this leak is & no sign of oil anywhere)
The bike has 27894 miles & 1 key

From the advice in my other thread all of the above is more time & knowledge than money to some one who knows what they are doing, sadly I just dont have the time & cannot justify having a bike just sitting in the garage looking pretty.
Sorting the swingarm bearings, link plates & a new front tyre will sort most of the issues.
I am looking for £1400 for the bike as it sits. Obviously it is off the road at the momement so will require a van to collect.
I can provide more photos if required
Thanks
