UK NC30 on e bay.
I found this one, item no 260742764838 today.
The description had me in fits, it was a catalogue of disasters, getter worse as I read down the page.
The photos back up his description, looks like it was last cleaned 10 years ago.
He values the bike as the sum of the tyres, wheels, battery and can.
However, he is totally honest and correctly describes the bike, and has used it as intended, day in day out, so I take my hat off to him, a keen rider.

What a hero. At least the listing is honest, like you said.

Re: UK NC30 on e bay.
I wondered how long it would be before this got posted! I may have had a cheeky bid!

Re: UK NC30 on e bay.
I see this bike regularly on my way to work, and FCK ME! it is the roughest bike I have ever seen that was still working, no word of a lie. It makes sense now though - it'll be an IOW dweller, leaves it by the hoverport to commute to work on, riding it to and from work and never doing a service or wash in the time he's had it.arsey30 wrote:I found this one, item no 260742764838 today.

The leaky exhaust is the loudest, most awful thing you could ever hear - I thought it was my bike and was hovering my finger on the killswitch.
I would not recommend spending any money on it at all, there is basically very little worth salvaging on the whole machine. The only thing you could do would be a total strip+rebuild, new plastics, new exhaust (whole), etc., etc. and you'd still have a bike that hasn't probably had an oil change in 20k miles. It'd be a UK spec bike, but in non-original panels so worth less than an unrestored original JP bike. To be honest, I've seen it in the flesh and it's not even worth breaking.
