Winter Project?

Hi, i have found an RS125 on ebay, in need of work.

He reckons it will go for around 350.

Basically what is the most you guys reckon i should pay for it??
And also he said he could deliver, would anyone recomend not viewing it as its clearly damaged

Cheers,
john.

It's had a heavy smack for sure, could have all sorts of problems. I think £350 would be about fair, but bare in mind if you wanted to put it back on the road rather than break it you may have bent frame and / or forks to deal with.

Right well it looks like a mate of myne who is a mechanic is gonna come have a look with me anyway.

I love it when they describe bikes as "sound prior to the accident". Well it ain't sound now cos some spotty teenager has ploughed into a cage!

Best of luck with it...would deffo spend a lot of time looking at the frame and headstock!

It sounds like he's a 2nd hand bike dealer/garage which poses the question, why hasn't he bought it back to fix up and sell on again? If it was worth while i'm sure he would have.

I'd be buying it if he only thinks he'll get 350 for it. The engine could go for £200 alone. Misc bodywork and electrics for more, £50 per wheel. Easily worth buying
