Selling the white bird ( ANOTHER price drop ! )

[Cougar377]

Rob put an advert up for me this morning
Chap from Glasgow has rang about it

Did he buy it..?

 

[Jaws]

Did he buy it..?

Not yet.. If it does not go in the next week or so I am gonna put it on fleabay with a penny start and no reserve..
It just makes me so sad every time I open the garage and I know I cannot safely use it

Oooooh. How about a private "Fleabay" style no reserve sale on here first..?
After all, we helped you build it.

Come on....where's your sense of adventure...? You're planning to sell it at a penny anyway, so what have you got to lose (apart from your sanity ).

Know that feeling mate & if I wasn't almost in the same boat it would probably be sat in my shed right now

The difference being I could safely use it but couldn't get it in & out of the damn shed

If I had the room.... but with 4 bikes in the garage and 1 under cover in the back garden I've got no where to keep it.

Don't forget he'll have to quarantine for 2 weeks if he crosses the border and it may take a while for him to get an import licence .

Give me £500 and I'll take it away.

Beachy Head is very near me.

What will we do with the bike, though..?

If I ever end up owning another motorised cycle you have my permission to chuck me off Beachy Head.

In fact I encourage it.

 

[Me!]

Have you got any better pics of it Jon (the bike !) please.

 

[vbird]

I`ll start the bidding at £1000

 

[Jaws]

I think its sold.. Still up in the air a bit but only as far as the chap has got to organise transport.. Its going north of the border

 

[andyBeaker]

Still up in the air

He's chucked it over a cliff as well?

Probably for the best.

 

[Pugwash]

I just found one of my old photos of it John.

Hope all goes well with the sale. I was very tempted & if my redundancy had not been put back 6 months I might have succumbed.

The downside would have been:

• didn't replace my red bird when I wrote it off because my back couldn't take the riding position any more
• I've already got 4 bikes in the garage & the Mrs would have had a fit
• I don't get enough time now to ride as much as I'd like, so yet another bike in the stable wouldn't have helped
• after spending many hours looking at it instead of riding it, it'd more than likely end up at teh back of the garage with the Trophy under cover & not used, which would be a shame for that bike.
