change that I can make: I have decided not to breed. Now quit bugging me and
go and talk to the Catholics.

 

That's nice, is that. I'd have thought £1500.

Cheers, it went to 1420, but he wimped out. I give up, he's on his own.

I'd have left them to it long ago now. They probably don't have the
money and are in that "dreamer" state where they talk alot about
buying something but never take the plunge. Or speak to any humans
with regard to making a purchase or take any test drives/rides.

Hah! He's had a second-chance offer. He's waiting on the guy calling
now, and if he's on the up, he'll have it.

I love being proved wrong when it's a happy outcome

 

Looks like a bargain for a bike with new Oil Plugs.

 

Superb. £1500 would have been a fair price: £1420 isn't bad at all,
and one more bid might have won it at £1440: you never know. I really,
really like those old-stylee Fazer 600s. I can't remember when they
gave them a mild facelift: slightly restyled fairing and an even
bigger tank, which made a damn good bike even better.

Anyway, if he can get it at £1420 he's done well. Items that time out
mid-afternoon and mid-week always tend to go cheapish.

Hmm.., *Slightly* odd, the guy offered it to the two under-bidders. He
got in first and has just snaffled it for £1355.

He's spoken to the seller, and it sounds kosher (if, as I said, odd).

Heh. Who knows? At the price it's a good buy, so - to a large extent -
who cares?

what?

I've been pricing up CL500s today.

 

who cares - utterly horrid bikes. Soft, slow, ugly, boring.

 

Your sole experience of a Fazer 600 is based on the ML&S discourtesy
bike, isn't it?

 

well, yes.

 

Compared to a Royal Enfield, no.
