Going for a trip to pick up some bikes including an S1 I sold this bloke about 10 years ago. Very little use and left in a murky garage. :roll:
No pictures yet so it will be a surprise lOl
His eyes are getting bad so wants rid. Just got to work out a sensible price due to condition and not feel like it`s a pisstake either way .
Do I want any more bikes needing work , yea well , yea , well , might be Pugh`s auction for them.
Sold a Bsa B50 to a guy who ended up putting it in auction and he lost £800 on it.
Anyone sold any bikes lately??

I did try selling my CCM R30, twice over the last year , both times buyers pulled out, so keeping it now , suppose good thing, they gave me kick up backside to get the thing out and up and running again.

I tend to keep stuff until it's absolutely fooked, I hate all the shite that goes with selling vehicles

It can't be a bad thing to get a Buell S1 back in hands and do something nice with it!

Overseas they threat them like trash and chopper bait.

That's not a bad idea, you could pick up a decent v twin to slot in there.

Turns out his estranged alco mrs had access to his bank account and kept him skint which is why he wanted the remainder in cash for his bikes , which she now gets anyhow ffs .
He wanted me to have his bike though.
