It was a missus thread but alas I was the only one with the balls to do it!

Now I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure those aren't balls.

not mine either

anyway picked it up today
(http://i1314.photobucket.com/albums/t574/blackstarracing8/s-l1600_zpsdart6em0.jpg)

2007 model very good condition one previous owner bits of rust so might need bit tidying up just under 19k miles full dealer history
bought it for the missus to learn on all for the princely sum of £800 Mot booked tomorrow (I though it had one when I bought it)

Moz wins with the addition of the L plates.

Whilst it would be terrible for you if it failed the MOT tomorrow, Im sure it would make everyone else's year

I've gone over it with a fine tooth comb so it won't unless something develops en route , was a pig to start though  I've not ridden it yet but just seems to be idling a bit low

Blimey..... Total guess from what I thought looked like an L plate.

Passed , could just do with new brake pads and chain needs slight adjusting which I knew , just needs a bit of tlc and a thorough going over and it will be good to go , loving the £17 tax
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Carbon_ZX6R on September 29, 2016, 09:29:09 PM
Well the cg125 is gone , should be picking up it's replacement tomorrow with its 2200mm wheelbase....
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........

Why is to gone so quickly?

Sold for loss or gain?

Because the other half has decided she would rather have another baby than learn right now and was useless to me as s commuter as it topped out at 45 at times , technically a profit sold for 100 more than I paid but if you count insurance it's a loss but that don't really count
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Carbon_ZX6R on September 30, 2016, 09:51:58 AM
O it's also a v-twin and red....

Passing that through Google Translate, Woman > English, that comes out as "says I'll never ever see her on a bike of her own".
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Phil_8 on September 30, 2016, 10:01:50 AM
I can only assume its a cruiser with stupid rake and the 'red' was there to throw us off thinking you got a ducati

....or it is a ducati with an extended swingarm

It's a stock bike and it's not a cruiser , it is red though...
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Carbon_ZX6R on September 30, 2016, 11:59:43 AM
It's also a 650.....
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........

it'll be some piece of shit like a Yamaha V-Star then
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Carbon_ZX6R on September 30, 2016, 12:41:06 PM
I did say it's not a crusier....
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Raydial on September 30, 2016, 12:47:57 PM
Well, SV650, then.
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Phil_8 on September 30, 2016, 12:53:29 PM
2200mm wheelbase though and not a cruiser or modified

....i can only assume you miss typed that or just have no idea what a wheelbase is
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Carbon_ZX6R on September 30, 2016, 01:20:48 PM
The wheel base is slightly over what I said , there is one group of bikes that are well that length.... That are not cruisers but I could cruise on it if I wanted
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Raydial on September 30, 2016, 03:14:38 PM
A super-scoot? Silverwing?
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Carbon_ZX6R on September 30, 2016, 08:00:52 PM
I've picked it up! Extremely pleased , I'll give another clue that should narrow it down , it's shaft driven
Title: Re: Well it's new bike day...........
Post by: Carbon_ZX6R on September 30, 2016, 09:20:45 PM

Full dealer service history , 21k miles and in good condition let alone for its age , a shit heap it is not!
Had a Honda senior technician go over it at the roadside with a fine tooth comb and only thing found are slightly loose headrace bearings , rides lovely

Got it for a silly price and thought it would be perfect for commuting and taking the missus on , full expecting it to be boring , but it can get a wriggle on for a lump , nice and responsive riding it back through London then onto m25
