Well is it worth buying or not even looking at?
he gave me the price of 2700 (£) which is all i got, i got some money somewhere for insurance, and if not theres a post office down the road and im sure i can find a bbgun and a mask Razz

polls here for 15 days as he said sommat about i got till end of month so...
go ahead and vote.

this is just a help as im new-ish here and dont know anyone well enough.

Those of us that saw the bike at RnB will definately choose the first option...but Zim has apparently put new fairing panels etc...

...but i can't comment about it's mechanical condition Rolling Eyes

Well..... most of us know that Zim's bike has had a few 'prangs' in its past.... Confused

But show me a bike that has been 'properly used' that is still in immaculate condition Confused

...To be honest i think it would be hard to find one!

At least you know exactly what you are getting with Zims bike, as you would be aware what 'mishaps' it had been involved in.
In a way, its better to know about the bikes shady past, rather than buying a nice 'clean' bike...and then getting a shock further down the line.

After all, from what Zim says, all the broken little bits and bobs have been fixed up properly now. So the bike shouldn't be *too* bad. Cool

And even if you do get problems with it.... at least you know where to find the owner, so that you can give him a slap later down the line! Laughing

Vicky you should consider becoming a used car salesman, if you can make Zim's ZX sound respectable - you could sell anything Wink

All i will say is check everything... and don't be fobbed off by the old 'it had new chain and sprockets last week' excuse, coz even if he did have em fitted they'll be fucked neways Laughing

It sounds sweet though...

it may be a bit sketchy round the edges

but zimm isnt gonna bullshit anyone on these forums, he wont hide what he has done to it, he isnt like that

so he will tell you what needs doin to it or whatever, and if you are willing the put in the time, then go for it

Indeedy it is a good bike just needs the crankcase sorting, which he might have done by now.
