Why is his typeface so big? Looks like its intended for kids to read (especially in that font) or people who have sight problems.
Also 'engine cc is 1127 NOT 1227, lol' surely a lazy and blatantly irritating misuse of that overused abbreviation? Why laugh out loud at that? I mean seriously.
Also there is a complete lack of capitalisation at the start of his sentences which is rather grating.

Oh dear God, why? Why? Shocked

Claims to have spent £42,000 then ran out of money just before getting it on the road. Seems legit, probably rides like a dream. Rolling Eyes

41 999 quid spend on the blood diamond encrusted in the dash
1 quid spent on the bike, paintwork, and artistic advice.

That claimed 'spend' would about buy you a NCR M4 - 130hp and 126kg.

Also a damn site prettier.

The font rather well matches the 'screen'.

Seller is a spacker. The font seems to fit the bike and the mouth breathers that want it.

The only memorable features of Redcar, are the sewage works outlets and the products of said sewage works, this bike being one of them Thumbs Up

£42,000? Bullsh*t.

£4,200 I could believe, but 42 grand? If he really spent that much he's off his rocker. The cogs-and-gears artwork on the tank is fine, nothing wrong there, but who painted the blow-up doll? I got a feeling he did that part himself, it's the work of a first-time novice.

Can someone please go and view it, to get a high res pic of the 'screen' thingy.

Everytime I look at the pic it does actually make me Laughing.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18968307/hahahahaha.jpg

It's like the memory of someone I used to work with who came back from the toilet (in the office) holding his freshly washed underwear - anytime I need to be cheered up, just think of that and it makes me laugh Razz.

Didn't notice the shark was 3D before thats obscene Laughing

I dont know enough about all of the parts listed, but is it really anywhere near the region of 42k, even if all compiled and put together by mechanics on an hourly rate and the paint done by top professionals Thinking 42k just doesn't seem realistic.

Worse than the abomination of a streetfighter they built on itv's the motorbike show, and thats saying something Puke

It looks like he bought a sh1tter and then crashed it into the local Halfords.

"if you notice there is no tax or test on her because i have ran out of funds the finish the last job which is - she needs a stage 3 dynojet kit, setting up on a rolling road, testing, tax and of course insurance which will be agreed value with your insurers."

So like £30 for the MOT and £78 for the Tax. Small change on £42k. Doesn't need even more bolt on crap to get on the road. Rolling road?

Heh, I hadn't even noticed that, my eyes were so hurted.

Doubtless claiming that it was very nearly on the road back then too. Very Happy

The thought that those bids are genuine fills me with both sadness for them, and joy that they're not me.

Dial it back down with some sensible paint and chuck a few of those stupid mods in the bin and that'd be quite tasty assuming it's got any hope of actually going on the road.

The combination of the paint, that fly screen and the ever faithful dominators is just vomit inducing though Sick
