I took my dog out for a walk. While it was pissing on Dynamic's leg, he seemed distracted by: This highly-tuned (the 16 previous owners have each filed a bit of port out) 2-stroke has been thrashed mercilessly for its entire life. The frame was only slightly bent, but I fixed it with me dads vice and a sledgehammer. The forks are straight, according to three separate workshops, and the seals don't leak, even if you put some oil in them. The engine has seized a couple of times, but wire wool puts it right. The control levers ALL look like that. You are buying a living, breathing boy-racer-for-the-road and any problems you may have are the same that every previous owner has had. Any bent bits are your problem, and the MOT doesn't strictly speaking, make it legal, but it will cut the stuff in any council estate before it is terminally re-stolen.
Dynamic says... <blah blah> Read this: http://www.oft.gov.uk/Consumer/Your+Rights+When+Shopping/cars+used+buyin g+privately.htm and the link about 'other rules' leads to this: http://www.oft.gov.uk/Consumer/Your+Rights+When+Shopping/Cars+used+buyin g+from+a+dealer.htm It is about cars, but applies equally to bikes. What it basically says is, as long as you, to the best of your knowledge, describe the vehicle accurately i.e. how many owners, colour, general condition, length of MOT/tax etc, then it doesn't even have to run or be fit to be used as a motorcycle was originally intended. I'd add in the words 'sold as seen with no warranty given or implied' on your receipt and make sure you keep a copy signed by the buyer. That covers your arse even further if anything goes wrong with it later. Just be honest to whoever thinks of buying it. Tell them the good and bad points and then it's up to them if they want to part with their money.
