What's the best biking bargain you've ever had?

[bigbluebear]

I picked up a Yamaha 535 Virago in exchange for a bottle of whisky. The collector box was completely eroded, had been in storage for over 3 years so no MOT or TAX or even been turned over in all that time. The collector box was cut out and a  B&Q shovel was welded on to close the gap (I kid you not), new plugs oil filter and got it MOT'd, all for £40. I cleaned the bike up and swapped it plus £300 for a Fazer 600. I sold the Fazer 600 for £1500 and bought the Fazer thou which I still have and have done a few modifications.....pictures below
