I brought this nc30 2 weeks ago http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWNX:IT

Last week when most of the snow cleared the day before i was going to pick it up he told me it wouldn't start. 3 days later he tells me he has fixed the problem and it starts up fine so i ask if i can pick it up the next day.

The day i was going to go pick it up and he says i cant come till later that day, and i say thats fine, then he says he cant do it that day and was going to call me. he didnt call me but text me saying it wont start again.

So he text me today saying he took it to honda and they say the harness and coils need replacing, so im a bit like wtf it was working and all of a sudden i have to replace 90% of the bikes wiring. I told him i can get the stuff and fit it myself so i can ride it home. then he says he'll talk to me later.

I dont know if the guys trying to pull my leg or getting ripped off by the garage he took it to. what do you think???

Sounds like he hasnt got a clue to be honest, knock £500 off it and pick it up in a van or forget it and go on pistonheads, there's a few decent 30's on there for similar money

Just had a proper read through the advert, walk away mate, looks like a proper lemon to me. Blueflame exhaust worth £400!! do me a favour, what planet is he living on? polished swingarm
Dont get me wrong polished stuff looks good but only when done properly, this bike looks like its been maintained by a monkey with a monkey wrench, i think your buying into trouble with this if ya want my opinion. Your get a nice clean original looking bike for that money.

You could just buy mine for £1200, no worries there

Walk away dude..

Send a message to eBay telling them this was not as advertised - i.e it doesn't actually work.

Buy something off here or where you have an idea of what you are getting.

The gold bolts and rearpegs would have put me off straight away. That bike is not worth a grand whichever way you cut it. No performance upgrades - shock, pipes etc - and a bad paintjob on shonky panels.

CMSMJ1 is right,

though its ebay / its an auction etc. the goods have to be as described. the fact it now does meet the description breaks the contract of sale. If you are adamant you want this bike, it is a fair request to ask the seller to pay the costs of fixing the bike as this is not the condition it was in when you bid / purchased it.

personally, get your money back - walk away there are far more better ones out there.

Yep me too, just walk away mate. Bike's worth £1000 if it runs, less if it doesn't. If it won't start and run then it's not as advertised.

Cheers for the help guys, think your all right and have now been given a offer i cant refuse.

A cbr600f, completely standard, from my regular garage so i know its in good condition, good fairings, full service inc rear tyre and fork seals, new downpipes, full mot and all for just £800!!!
