Rescue prospect - no connection

I would have been interested if I did not have a garage full of not yet started projects
Interesting to see what it goes for.

That's a good honest appraisal of a second hand Monster. I like how he says he started and ran the bike and was going to ride it without knowing how old the belts were! one out of ten for effort for checking that they were still there though.

Plenty of interest; 12 bidders/14 bids.

The location isn’t going to help the sale though I fear - were it somewhat closer I’d be bidding myself!

especially during lockdown, it would be hard to justify it as an essential journey

Are any of the motorcycle delivery couriers still operating?

Only 10 miles from me and one of my neighbours may have space in their garage... must not look as I need a daily driver (car) and my cash needs to go on that

if you're local then it's worth a punt I reckon.

A fair amount of interest; £1500 now.

There's currently 7 vehicles at my house but I still need a daily driver...

Of the fleet, the Caddy has no engine in at the moment and needs some welding, the FiLs buggy doesn't start for some reason (new plugs, points, HT leads, fuel pump, timing checked and still no go), the van is SORN because of what's going on so no holidays and the S2r needs belts and a service...

I really, really don't need another project at the moment and could do with fixing / sorting / servicing what I have (although a tatty RD125lc has recently caught my attention, and the son and heir will be 17 next year... )
