So have looked at a number of FZ1's over the last few months - with ABS and (black - frame, engine, wheels) online. All of these bikes were a miles away, so I wasn't able to see any of them in person. not seeing any advertised in and around the south east at all atm.
- 2010, w/15k @ £5k, Red paintwork, Wigan Yamaha - rusty header bolts/studs/flangesway and way over priced
- 2007, w/26k, @ £4k, Blue paintwork, Via-moto - very rusty header bolts/studs/flanges, and over priced.
- 2011, w/30k, @ £4500, White & blue paintwork, Norman & Birch - polished wheel rims, and overpriced (I did get offered a deal, but not enough)
- 2010, w/5k, @ £4200, Black paintwork, facebook, private - cleanest bike so far, owner sent me load of pictures, but owner turned out to be mentally unstable and refused to talk over the phone.
- Then there are trade sellers trying to punt 2012 bikes as 2014/15, artificially inflating the price to gouge the customer.
- And lastly there are the private sellers trying to punt bikes with missing master keys, bits missing off the bike, poorly modded or just plain nasty looking as they haven't been looked after.
