where are the cheap dealers in Manchester

[Wonko The Sane]

When I was looking to replace the Vara I found a few large dealers with cheap bikes in, usually in old industrial units / mills but now I'm possibly facing replacing the ZZR I can't find any of them.

they all used to advertise on autotrader

where should I be looking north of manchester to pick up a mid-size bike for under £2k?

Whats wrong with ebay?

My ebay purchases:-
zxr400 - £900 - Wolverhampton
cbr600f - £900 - Wirral
zx6r - £700 - Birmingham

All have been spot on, not a single problem.

Get the train to the location, ride the bike back.

looking to trade in against something a bit lighter and lest stress on the wrists before my bike hits the age old Kwak gearbox issue so looking at dealers as off-loading my bike would involve it being sat uninsured in the garden declared SORN

Doesn't 'jump' out so much as slip out

always either just before, on the roundabout or exiting the roundabout exiting work, just after the temp gauge has reached the scale and I've got the choke fully off.

the revs gently rise and the bike slows slightly as though you've gently pulled the clutch

pop it back into gear and it doesn't do it again on that trip, or the next day. I had wondered if this was just me being a bit useless and the following day thinking "make sure it shifts properly"

I get the impression that the jumping out is a bit more violent

it does turn out that the issue started after putting "10/40w gear oil" in to top up instead of 10/40w engine - that's the last time I send the wife to Halfords and trust they'll give her the correct item!

I've changed the oil and filter today so we'll see if that was the issue or not.

Cheap and dealers in the same sentence does not compute.

I've been in, no hard sell tactics. They do have an area set aside for auction bikes, but I think they'd rather steer you to buying from the main sales area.

Plenty of stock. It's a dealer with overheads so don't expect a fire sale.
