Three grand for a 400...

Post by fossie » Sun Oct 10, 2021 7:39 am

This reg number I recognise as once a club bike but not in Midlands , but it is a trade in and comes with no warranty or guarantee which at £3000 is not really a bargain .

That said impulse stainless zorst , no having to Fanny about in the inside of fairing to take indicators off to move fairing are a bonus ;)

That's my old bike - I bought it off Alan Headley (BanditAl)?
Toured the Med coast of France on it in 2009, stopping off at Alexandre's pad near Bordeaux on the way down.
Was a great little bike that was.

I hope it's worth £3K. That means I might break even on mine when I sell it!

I am heartened by that fact.

I think Tinykat will be up for sale soon. So I am hoping for some kind-hearted person that would like to pay full-whack for it. Too little space in this house!

I was thinking about that as I wrote it, but I am not riding Tinykat to the show because:

it will be freezing
I don't like the cold
I don't ride in the winter anymore
I don't know anyone with a van who would do the job for less that £75
I don't like the cold
I can't get up early in the morning
I don't like the cold

If you can sort collection and delivery back to me, you can have either or both of my Kats for the stand.
