Bike wanted

[pabloblue]

Hi.

 

I'm after a 750cc or similar bike, jacket gloves, helmet and lock for short and long distance... Reliability and comfort are key. I owned 2 vfr 750's previously and they were perfect for managing the distances but not as comfortable as I'd like. A cruiser is probably best but you lot would know better than me. I can go up to about £3000/£3500. I live in Hove but can travel for the right bike. Thanks.

Been considering to sell my shadow 700...

Not as high as £3000 and it's a charm.

Pffft, you want a tdm850 from a bloke in Norfolk.

Pictures of any bike, mileage, mot & tax length, location is appreciated thanks. It cannot be red.

What year & mileage please? Do you have a picture of it? Thanks.

I have a 3/4 tin of blue gloss you can have (if you buy a red bike)

Sorry I cannot be seen anywhere near anything red. Apart from being the colour of my arch rival team from Manchester, just thinking about it brings me out in a rash, cold sweats and headaches. I need to go and lie down for a few days. If anything close to sky, metallic blue turns up I'll be there in a jiffy.

Here's a pic of my old bike.

When you come out in a rash what colour is it??

I feel this could be self perpetuating.

I am going to guess TDM850.

 

I have the 900 I keep planning on selling, but riding instead.

[Guest]

Yes, a tdm850. Widely known as the most exciting bike ever.
