eBay 'specials' and other junk finds

A place to bang on about subjects close to your heart that affect us all as 400cc riders. general banter is rife, however rudeness and abuse seem to be the norm, If a bit wet round the ears best go play elsewhere. Auto pruning of items 31 days and older

Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.

Well this is what has been said with the idiot.

Me: You can not ride anything more than a 125cc on a cbt, are you stupid or something.
Restricted license you can ride any bike aslong as its restricted.

Him: piss off you mug!!! i had it restricted to 33hp in which my insurence covered me so it worked for me. if not for you no worries but dont waisst my time

Me: Check the riding laws you tool, you can not ride any bike over 125cc on a cbt, if you do then your breaking the law, yes you could insure it on cbt but then again you can insure anything without even owning a license.
I am a motorbike mechanic and deal with motorbike instructors so know what im talking about.
If you sell this to some poor kid with just a cbt making him think he is alright to ride it then your a fucking idiot

Waiting for a reply back, this has really pissed me off, he is gonna end up having some poor kid ending up with points and losing a license he hasnt got yet.

You're wasting your breath on that animated vegetable.

Probably worth reporting him to ebay as they might pull his auction.
