I've put a for sale add in the Exchange and Mart section on 23 Dec but now realise there is no facility for any additional posts or comments to be added to it.
I usually part exchange through a dealer when getting another bike.
So any suggestions to enhance a private sale would be welcome.

You haven't received any messages because nobody wants to buy it. Wink

eBay 99p no reserve as spares or repair and see what happens. Describing a shit bike as a barn find seems to make more people interested so you could give that a try.

The photos don't help. Laughing

How do you make all the photos a big white page with a stamp in the corner.
Maybe £300 is too cheap, makes it sound like a shed. Very Happy

This Very Happy

Advertise on Gumtree, you'll get lots of messages, some might be from genuinely interested parties.

Asking real money for a used buttplug essentially.

eBay it and done.

That said, price is well cheap and if I was in any way able to store another bike I'd buy it for a clean up and turn around.

Didn't know that was a thing.
