Spent the last couple of weeks looking at bikes and come across much the same, worst was a bike described as "stunning" that had a similar amount of corrosion to the pics above I drove 120 miles to see that one although it made a nice day out in Cornwall , plus one with 11k genuine mileage but the MOT history showed 22k and 25k four years ago so had obviously had new clocks!
I was also surprised at the bikes that hadn't even been cleaned prior to an arranged viewing, no wonder my bikes always sell quickly and to the first person who comes to look!
Anyway eventually found a CBF600 hiding away in a small dealer, selling on behalf of a customer, very good nick, 2007 reg, FSH and a genuine 5k miles on the clock! Negotiated a mini service, 12 months MOT for 2k all in, I know it's not a Fazer, but I've had five of them and just fancied something different and a little less frantic, also one that I can bling up, I've added all the extras to nearly all of my Fazers and then sold them with them all fitted and just couldn't face buying another exhaust/rad cover/hugger for a Fazer, I pick the CBF up at the end of next week and am looking forward to it, pic below, Jonesy
