Wow. Left myself open for that i guess hahaa.

I dont even drive the yeti :D

Sorry Chris, put the cake down until your mind is clear of olis misdemeanors in the yeti. Shocking.

Want some panniers? ;).

Also. Come along to a meet when we do one?

If it is central then I'd be up for that. And weekends only really due to work.

I already have panniers, anything else! :)

I've got a spare back wheel in black, with tyre. 

 

Not sure what to do with that Givi tank bag i bought not long ago. Havent even used it yet :s 

 

Cant think what else i've got that isnt attached to the bike haha 

So what's the plan with buying the tuono mate ?

Need to sell the VFR first really, then i can just go n buy one. 

 

Tryna get in contact with the guy who's got one thats mates with a mate, but not having much luck at the moment. 

 

It sounds nice, but it is over £500 more than i wanted to spend, so im still not 100% convinced tbh 

Wanted to put the VFR on ebay tonight really, but i didnt get in till nearly 7. So its too dark to take some pictures :( 

I would try it on gumtree or one of the others first then you don't have all the fees.

Gumtrees a nightmare with spam and scams ive heard. So im steering clear of that particular one :D. 

 

I've had it on 'The Bike Bay' for the last few days (its a facebook page which has 30k members) and nothing. 

 

 

I'll start it as a bid, then if i get a PM i tend to settle outside of ebay and cancel the listing haha. its nearly free that way ;)

Yeah like there are no wasters and scammers on fleabay! :no:

 

Good luck with the sale though.  They are quite a popular bike so selling shouldn't be a problem, just getting the asking price as everyone wants everything for nowt these days.

As Chris has said, good luck with the sale mate, I suspect it will sell very quickly judging by the condition I've seen in your pictures.

Fingers crossed you can get hold of this chap as the tuono sounds a properly good example !

Keep us posted.

We can then sort out this meet !!!!

Cheers guys!

Its just the wheels that are makin me abit doubtful. I should have had them done in black really. Would of made it more oem looking.

Hopefully ill get chance to put it on tonight anyway :).

Yeah this meet sounds a good plan indeed! Ill look forward to it

Fingers crossed you can get hold of this chap as the tuono sounds a properly good example !

Cheers

Im not sure if he wants too much for it though. He wants £5k and i can get one nearly as good for nearly £1k cheaper

I dont mind paying, but im not happy on a private sale unless i think i could sell it for what hes sold it to me for, if you get me? N im not sure i could.

Whens the s1000xr coming then? ;)

Yeah where is he when you want him?

 

It looks a bit expensive with the mileage but I am fairly sure I would get a bit off that.  Is it worth having as a second bike?  Different that is for sure and back to the Sports/Tourer type thing but as I said the other day once the itch starts................

You called gentlemen ??

Hmmm, k1200....i wouldn't. There were very significant upgrades to the 1300, mainly the engine. The company I work for undertook the k1300 project for bmw.

I wouldn't touch a 1200 with a bargepole.

A few years ago I ran 3 bikes - race bike for 2 years to get it out of my system on a track, touring bike and a sports road bike.

I just never used the 2 road bikes and went back to 1 bike and never rode so much.

Must be running somewhere :D

Yeah. Good for a second bike if you dont do too many miles on it i guess. Just gotta think of resale value i guess, and how easy itll be to shift on when you've put a few more miles on

Gentlemen?  I think you have the wrong thread! :D

 

Well thanks for the info Mad and I guess that outs paid to that exercise then.  Onward and upward I suppose.  I wonder how much I could get a decent VFR for???? :D

Oh sorry, that was meant for the other forum...

I've heard rumours there's a cheap old hack with oddly painted wheels not that far from you....might be worth a cheeky offer of a box of cakes ?

Cheers
