Whaddya Reckon On This 400RR? (ebay link)

[Vincent]

Looks like it might be a good buy for someone, (nothing to do with me). Take those stickers off, new pipe maybe, new booties . There's not a lot of miles on it either. I like that colour, what are they like for 6 footers?
I might be wrong but it looks like the front tyre's on wrong. Could be nasty on a wet test ride

They look better when they're in brighter colours. I was looking for a bike like this, but couldn't find a decent one local. Looks like he's asking in the region of £1500 for it though, not sure about that.

REASON FOR SALE-My son cant afford to take his full test and needs the money otherwise he would keep it
that dont sound right.

For someone over 6 foot, it's a horrible bike to ride. I had the misfortune of riding one from Mid-wales to Plymouth last year, and felt like I was squatting the entire time.

They're good bikes though. I think 12 or 13 is way OTT for one though. I know of one that's a cosmetic shed due to being owned by a girl, but the engine is perfect and has a nitron rear shock going for around 8-900.

Everything about that advert screams "don't buy me"

I think the auction is okay. I think he's asking a bit much for it. But a young lad buys a restricted 400 for when he passes his test. Maybe doesn't pass first time, and can't afford to go in for it again. Needs the money, bike no longer a concern, wants it gone.

The guy has been on Ebay since 06 and has done a little bit over the years. So I see no reason for it to be anything other than he says it is.

The photos are fine, the bike looks in OK condition.

Its the language that is used to sell it, the spelling mistakes and the way the text is formatted. Its very picky of me, but you can tell a lot about a salesman by his attention to detail on the listing.

That and the front tyre is surely the wrong way round.

never understood why people can't spend more then 30sec filling the description. Lovely bike but i not to sure about the seller.

Also, why buy a bike and restrict it when you haven't even passed your tests, seems like something you do afterwards!!

It's so much easier and, in a lot of ways, safer with the interweb, you can look up any bike and find out what its foibles are and have some protection. It used to be a real nightmare in prehistoric times, worse if you were selling - you'd place an advert in the paper and get gangs of blokes coming around trying to knock the price down sometimes refusing to get off the bike until it was Or people coming round and casing the house for a later visit in the middle of the night.
