MAYBE WANTED: Cheap bike

[ChristoT]

With the head gasket on my Peugeot dodgy, I'm tempted to cut and run: sell it as fast as possible, then replace it with a bike. This depends on cooperative parents on Friday though!!

Just to get a feel for the waters (as it were), has anyone got / know of a reliable, cheap 250cc+ bike up for sale?

[ChristoT]

so your gonna off load it on some poor unsuspecting foccer then run, bad form mate... i r disappoint

I'll also see how much the scrappy will offer me. But I need transport, have no money, and literally have my back to the wall. I don't like it either, but sometimes you've gotta do what you've gotta do.

And please don't hijack.

My mate was proud of his recent purchase of a 2005=55 Nissan Navaranew shape 4x4 truck,very smart it is ,only £4,500 +vat


Last week he met me to go rabbit shooting, he turned up in a hire van,,got out looking at my Toyota Hilux and said "them trucks are shit"  i ask why,,his has just cracked in half  :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol


the chassis has cracked in HALF :eek


it has a new MOT on it,,,so questions will be asked about it,,,also he paid with credit card so hopes the sale is guaranteed..




poor bugger :lol

That's scary!  :eek

Mine's not that bad, just suspected head gasket failure. But I can't afford to have it fixed, nor can I have it off the road long enough to fix myself, as I have neither the time nor the equipment.

Do you know, I'd forgotten about that?!?  :lol

Once the carbs are on, all it needs is an end can, a check over by Deefer, and away I go! And I'll still have the bits to projectify it as I go!

Good call, Micky!

Just checked insurance on a standard Fazer: £265.

Looks like this is the way to go.
