Mr Fro Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Nearly there: Ran out of shiplap thanks to wife changing her mind about the corner junctions. I had a little try at torching the roof felt - it's a total piece of piss! I can't believe people charge to do it! Wife just went and had a look at how I'm getting along and said "I think this would be good as a summer house". 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sell a bike saying New MOT, clean bike no drops, well maintained 9,000 miles on clock. Your average buyer: How low will you go? It will need new tyres, chain and sprocket, service and the rear brake calliper looks like it needs a service. Are the miles genuine? I was looking for low mileage but these seem low for the year.. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I must be an ideal buyer then . I did my research , decided that the price was fair , studied the pictures , checked the money was in the bank , bought a one way ticket to Portsmouth , turned up on time , looked at the bike , said yes without haggling at all , had a nice cup of tea and a chinwag , went to the bank , transferred the funds , had another cup of tea , rode home on a Harley . A week later a big box arrived with all the original parts to return the bike to standard . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
