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

There are some bits I like about it surprisingly. If it was tidied up a bit it would be quite nice, needs the swing arm and seat sorting along with the headlights and of course the paint work. But the frame is interesting as is the tank.

However at £6000 I feel its a tad over priced and when you're asking that sort of money I would have thought that spending a couple of minutes taking some good quality pictures and writing a well structured ad would have been a good idea. I could go on but a new "protect" is beconing...

Dreamer, another classic case of "ive bolted on £2k+ worth of tat so it must be worth £2k+ more" :roll:

A good 30 is worth more than a RVF, that price is a joke and up there with the likes of fastlane

You could get at least two mint NC30s for that money!
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.

There's some quite nice parts on it, Still about £3000 over what its worth though.
