WANTED: (Smallish) Sub-£500 Bike South Wales

[Ingah]

Looking for a bike of more than 50cc and less than say 500cc (as i need it to be a lower insurance risk than my group 9 CB500).
Runner, non-runner, damaged, i'll consider whatever really - long as it's not mint (because i can't afford mint). Something to play with and learn more from is great. I'm not hugely fussed or in a hurry - although i always turn up to view when i say i will etc.

Please note that i don't have a van, so if it's not roadworthy/roadside fixable, you'll ideally have a way of bringing it to me when i buy it - i'll make sure you're not out of pocket there too (obviously i'd come to you for viewing). Willing to consider using Shiply et al, but it'll obviously eat into the money i'm willing to pay.

Particularly interested in sports and/or 2-strokes (for example: RXS/NSR/Mito/RS), and bikes in the 100-300cc range. Not afraid of a 2T in need of an engine rebuild.

Japanese bikes preferred, but, especially for the right price, it doesn't have to be.

I'm based in Bridgend and Cardiff areas, South Wales.
