Looking for a 400, preferably a gsxr, zxr, cbr, rvf etc around the £1500 mark. Would consider part exchange with my NSR (around £2,400). Reply to this or PM me with details/pics.

Hi,

Take a look at this website https://www.rider-motorcycles.co.uk/BikeSearch.asp they seem to have loads of 400.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Will

Hmm.. very tempting yams, that's a hella nice bike. 90miles to portsmouth though. Rolling Eyes

Is there a reason for selling the bike? Or is there anything wrong with it? Wink

And would you settle for £1,750 if I paid for carriage etc?

90 miles, thats nothing lol

im selling it cos ive seen the light.. and getting an R6! Twisted Evil

theres nowt wrong with the bike itself, but the front fairing is damaged as seen in the pictures.

the bodywork was actually bought seperatly from the bike cos its a rare ltd edition and i thought it would be cheaper than getting something sprayed to those colours (they are sooo much nicer in the flesh compared to picture) , so i drove to london (well, we ended up in slough first Laughing

) then got there to find the damage Evil or Very Mad

but its not that bad really. just need a new upper fairing.

£1850 and pay for carraige, and i 'll include road legal micron can, pillion seat and pegs too....

email me if you wanna disccuss further yamswheelyr1 @ ntlworld . com

Thanks everyone for your help and suggestions, but I think I've got my mind set on Craigs. Just about 500 miles to get there. Laughing

Surely 500 miles in any direction from Hull would have you a fair way out to sea... Laughing

Something like that Bendy.

Don't suppose anyone knows anyone who's willing to/does a service of transporting bikes by any means?? I've got about £150 to play with.

There are a few companies that will do that. I think £100 is the norm. Have a look on ebay.

Let's try that.

https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2964737851&category=317

- Is a no no, it says £150 up to 300 miles and I'm 500 from you. Sad

Wouldn't I be better going with something like Delivery Networks or Parcel Force?

The AA website lists 2. And the other one is in yorkshire so I doubt that 500 miles from hull either...

Why don't you just ride it?

And you can't go 500 miles from Hull to anywhere. It's 500 from London to Aberdeen Very Happy

one1895 · Posted: 21:09 - 19 Nov 2003 Post subject:

Yep, well I have four options:

Get a lift down there and ride it back.

Get a lift down there and bring it back in trailor/van.

Hire someone to deliver it for me.

Run.

Just slip a mate some petrol money and a bit extra and get him to drive/ride down there. Then you ride it back up, worst case scenario is you having to follow your mate back if you feel harsh about fucking off and leaving him if he's in a car and you're on the bike. Either way it's probably a good thing whilst you're getting used to the bike anyway.

It'd be cheaper to get on the train, and ride back Smile

I think I'll either get train or a lift down with my mate. Either way I'll probably ride it back. Mr. Green

Anyway, thanks again people, I'm off to pub. Razz

You can always lob Yams a few quid to ride it up a bit, giving you a shorter trip home.
