Well...the gs is no more.

[RooRoo]

Took it to the garage, it'll cost more than its worth to repair it...so fuck it, its a boring bike anyway...one trip to the bank and 1500 quid later i'm looking for a sporty 2 stroke bike, something like an nsr, or tzr, can i get a decent one for 1300ish, im gonna keep 200 for insurance etc

[cliff]

Oh dear, do you reckon they charge so much because of your sexuality? (Meant in the most unoffensive lighthearted way).

after i said id put my finger up his arse he charged me more

[mr.z]

Stick it on e-bay somebody WILL give you quite a bit for it, theres no way it will cost anymore than £200 to fix, provided you can get somebody to do it, or get yourself a socket set, torque wrench and a manual, get to a breakers and do it yourself!

Then with the money you get for the bike you can buy a cattle prod and go after the fool responsible

[badlydamaged]

See if you can get a part exhange on a sporty 2 stroke for that Saab turbo which youve lost the keys and documents for and is in your garage .
Hope you manage to find something nice m8, and soon so you can enjoy all the luvely sunshine . (nice custom title btw )

tell you what, give it to me!
i'll spend about £30 fixing it followed by ebaying it off for £500

or you could just ebay it off yourself.

[mrchips]

Unlucky mate, I'm sure you'd still get a few quid off ebay or breaking it though so that's worth a try - people are always after projects for summer.

[RooRoo]

yeah will do, can i get a 125cc sports bike for 1400 quid?

[mrchips]

Get a pre 1995 one and you may get it for a respectable few hundred. I got my AR (hardly the fastest but quick enough for a 125) for under 600.

[RSixer03]

RooRoo maybe you should consider public transport?

My mate paid £200 for his 1993 NSR, it was tatty, had no MOT but ran. I find its best to ask the local bike shops when buying really cheap little bikes, my bikes previous owner paid £200 for my bike from a bike shop, with a long MOT and running (although the timing kept going out whenever you put it in gear because the thrust washer was missing, lol) and quite a few other mates have brought cheap 125s from my local mechanic. 1400 is plenty for a sports bike, you should get a pretty nice one for that!

I would stick with a NSR, parts are easy to get hold of. And think how much it will cost if you damage the mito in the same way that you wrecked your GS!

[Robby]

[RooRoo]

I just bought one...its an RS 125...

Aprilia rs 125, Rossi Rep, P reg, 12 months mot, 8 months tax, new chain and sprocket,
loads of history and receipts, excellent condition.

being delivered thursday! cannot wait..how much quicker will it feel than my gs125?

[mr jamez]

[Flip]

Lots, Roo Roo. Enjoy it and don't let that pr1ck of a cousin near it, mate

[Keith]

[RooRoo]

will it go wrong all the time? is p reg too old for an rs?

[Flip]

Look after it and it'll be fine.

(anal intruder)

Sorry.

[Mantzy]

Damn Roo, that was quick going. I was considering an RS or NSR instead of the CG i'm probably going to get. I can just hear the insurance companies giggling at me. May have to give Danny a message.

Nice one though.

Great title

Hi

That was quick.

For the RS, take good care of it. Do not thrash it until well up to temperature. Keep on top of the servicing.

And keep your cousin well away from it.

All the best
