Cheers for the reply sinto.
Still trying to figure out all the forum basics,
but I Have managed to stick a pic of my bike up on my profile.
I've bought the bike last week and it's still at the shop at the moe.
The dealer had it up for £2500, when I went to view it I was expecting showroom condition for the price and the mileage but it wasn't. :-(
However I did manage to agree a price for £2140. Which will include a full service, service on the brakes and new pads. Mot. New battery and the passing light fixed. Full months warranty And a full tank of fuel. Happy days.
There is a bit of surface rust on the front of the frame around the exhaust manifold. And the carb inlet rubbers are cracked all way round. But a spray test was carried out and it is fine. I will silicone it all up for now till I get some. The fork dust caps are crazed and there's a bit of pitting on the fork stanchions.
Gunna do a few little touch ups, ie spray exhaust and touch up engine block to bring it up to scratch.
But it's all completely original.
What do you think about the price? Is it fair? Tried my best to keep it as low as poss.
Crikey I've given you my life story. Sorry mush
Btw I'm a southern fairy from Southampton
