urgent advice/help re private sale of bike

It was a bank transfer from one personal account to another, no credit card or paypal involved. Payment to the bank had a marker saying what it was for.
Money was available and has been transferred to another account. So all looks ok on that front.

Well from what you've said there, I don't think there is anything to worry about but you are right to be cautious, better to be save than sorry.
If the guy has paid upfront in the manner he has, I would be more than happy to go with the deal and as he was good with his word, yoy should be well pleased and return the favour to him by making sure all the relevant paperwork is done and dusted for him. But as I say in my work everyday...."do a C.M.A. exercise everytime"
