Some of the bikes that I have owned and still own, I never went to see in the flesh and not had a major problem with them, well not one that I can't fix. I do usually try to go and see the bike before I buy them (so I know what I'm dealing with). I only haven't gone to see this one as it is too far from where I live, if it wasn't for that, I would of gone to have a look at the bike.

But I do understand where you are coming from. Some of us prefer to take risks to get what we want, I suppose you can class me as being one of those people .

Also, I haven't yet paid for the bike, it is been delivered to mine, so I still have the chance of saying 'No I don't want it because of *insert possible problem here*'.

Let us know on the forum how you get on when this bike arrives

Ok, will do.

Got the bike today. The only problems being is that the left fork seal needs replacing and theres a very small dink on the left hand side of the tank, appart from that it's fine. It's recently had 2 new tyres, break pads, chain and sprockets. Engine sounds sweet, no awkward noises or rattles. The bike also goes like there is no tomorrow ^^.

Glad you are happy.No problems with the lock then?

Nope, the riding position is a pain though, because I still haven't got round to moving the forks back up, I will be doing that this week-end!
