I can imagine bidder 5 ranting about how he lost the bike to some twat by a penny Laughing


Looks ok for the money, be aware that there may be things not mentioned that you find out you need to do, but I can't see it coming to too much extra.

Nice having an ART can (shame about dent tho), they went bust a while ago so can't get them anymore.

Everyone ive told so far, has said if they were bidder 5 they would have smashed their computer up.
Won by penny is quite legandary Laughing
Ye, its going to fit in the garage for a while till i can get the a2 done, but only a month or so. more worried about the upcoming MOT and what it fails on, hoping nothing major as i hear parts are quite scarce

Might see if we can get the can off, and get someone who can do PDR to massage the dent out a bit, might be possible

@Steve - Well i only gotta get it back to bridgwater, we're coming up on sunday to have a quick look, and then its going to cost me 90 quid to get it back Sad Cant find a better alternative at the moment, unless you have any suggestions Razz was going to ride it back, but thought id break the bcf stereotype of all us younguns being illegal twats Laughing

Haha no, it's useful for model specific advice, geeks come in handy. Also their for sale section can be good, always loads of NC30 stuff when I used to go on there.

Meh doesn't bother me, never stopped before when I was waiting for my insurance documents to come through for like 2 weeks.
I can get to bridgwater only going on dual carrigway for about 5 miles, which is 92 miles acording to that so one tank about 15 quid.

Its a reasonable buy. I sold a nicer looking one at the beginning of the year for £1000 so its pretty good.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.
