Looking at the design, they are from Sandy Bike Spares. They were on the bike when I got it, but I have a receipt saying they were fitted in October 2011, and the bike only did 2,000 miles with them fitted until I bought it (a year later). They were pretty dirty when I got them, but they polish up a treat. No corrosion, hardly any pitting at the front, no rust (they're stainless), and no dammage to the collector. There are a few marks on one of the middle pipes due to the crash), but the damage is slight, and merely cosmetic.

Those pipes have been on the bike for coming up to 2 years and 9,000 miles, but they do polish up very well (see previous pics of bike meets). The original receipt shows they cost £175, I'm basically saving you £100.  Big Grin

Well i seem to buying lots of stuff i dont actually need, ill soon have the fazerspares west wales branch. Smile


I'll give you £80 for them including economy postage but by all means try getting more for them off someone else first as there could be someone needing them for an mot or whatever in which case they'll prob pay more but i prob wouldnt even get round to fitting them til next year after periodically soaking the studs with penetrating oil.


I am your number 1 customer so far Wink


Re: Breaking FZS600 for spares - ChristoT - 18-09-13

Well, I said £80 for them from the start. If you're willing to pay that they're yours! Plus postage though, please!

On the sales, I'm pricing by how much I would want to pay for each item.

You are indeed my number one client! As a token of my esteem for your custom, here's a £10 voucher off the sale of the towbar.  :lol :lol :lol

Over 1200 views on this and he's still got most of it to sell!  :lol
Perhaps another 10,000 views and maybe even the towbar will go? Maybe need to think of some alternative uses for it tho...

Sigh.

And very depressing it is too. I'd rather be riding it than having to sell it like this.

Come on, Foccers, buy the bloody thing so I can be shot of it!  :'(
