I was considering it myself.
But as with all bikes, you deff need to go and look.
The ad is low on details and pics.
I would ask for more pics and info before
deciding whether to view or not.
Good luck

Yes...a little undersold IMO, that's the way it goes if you don't fully grasp what you need to do to prepare a bike for sale and put in an add to attract attention.
For instance if a bike is fully sorted and very capable of passing an MOT then £25 is a very small investment and means that bike can be demonstrated if not test ridden.
Not doing that puts it in the buyer beware category. The £££ drop off accordingly.

Man alive that is a cracking bike for that money I honestly thought it would make circa £5k.

Picked it up today £3650 and got spare genuinely Yamaha fuel tap,Haynes manual, tail piece, paddock stand, front calipers, gaskets, standard exhausts stamped 31k,spare brake discs.
Brand new Yamaha rear shock just fitted he even gave me a mint used one!!
Engine is sweet, been for a quick blast and it runs well, I'm very happy with it might put the frame back to red next winter but for now will use as it is while I'm doing my f2 restoration (see other threads

Unless, of course, they are the later type with the required indentations. OEB |
