Worth it or not?

Hi all, I'm new here and was wondering if I could have some advice.

I'm thinking about looking at this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CB-400- ... 1006316175 CB400 SuperFour later today but do you think it's worth the nearly 2 hour drive there and the same back? Bit nervous that it has no tax and the guy has no insurance so can't test ride it but then it sounds like it's in good nick and has low mileage.

Also, is the anything you recommend I look for if I do go see it? Are the any common problems with STs to look out for?

Thanks in advance for any advice. I look forward to getting to know you all :)

Emma

Theres nothing to go by

That pic is a generic pic and not one of the bike which by the sounds of it he is breaking not selling.

It's in the breakers yard, I tried to buy the rear shocks off him.

Oops! Bit of a morning Muppet moment on my part, copied link from wrong tab. It's this one I'm thinking of looking at http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-CB400-S ... 1020620422

Seems alright.... Would want to test ride it myself..but as he is a dealer you might be able to get some warranty

This one is ringing alarm bells with me.

I've been watching the spares bike, as I've just got mine and thought it might be good to have his contact details.

But, the original spares bike that was listed/photographed, is now the bike that is now listed as a complete bike (and the spares bike has been replaced with the stock photo) I reckon he's made two bad ones into a good one out of 2 bikes when, which isn't a problem if it's been done well.

If you do go to view, give it a right good going over, check the numbers and a HPI, it could be a great bike, or a horror story, you decide!

If it seems too good to be true, but ey, it's worth a look.

Hi, thanks for your posts. It made me rethink the long drive and wait for one that doesn't have that dodgy feel. I really appreciate the advice :)
