Sorted guys. Went to local Suzuki dealer today and they had got a 02 K1 Gixer 600 in for £3000. Offered him 500 quid under what he was asking and he said he'd take 400 quid under, but would put new c/s on and service bike plus new seals in front brakes. It has full MOT and 1 months tax, plus FSH. Sorted. Er no.  Went to K2. They got a 2000 plate R6 cat D. It was mint before accident. Lad's had it 2 years with a restrictor kit. Last month took it in for kit removal and MOT. Rides off after its sorted, within about 2 miles some tart in a 4x4 has him off. Fairings fooked and headlight gone. Nothing else cept a wee dink in the tank. So its written off. K2 have sourced all panels off ebay and its off to Dream Machine to be matched. It has next model rear end on, with LED brake lights, fancy s/s brake hose all round, new diablo tyres, 22000 miles, but the motors sweet as a nut, new battery, DB, high level Remus can, in fact cept for the dink which if I want it gone I'll have to pay it'll be a pretty well sorted little bike. Mine for £1650 with the promise not to sell it for a profit.  So when I get it back, depending on DM, I'll post some pics. About time too  |

No sorry Lee I havn't. Its not been in their showroom. But think this is close. All bodywork was stacked in a box. Bike is just a rolling chassis at moment, coz they've checked everything including the sub frame and main frame for damage. clicky |

Excellent service yet again. For you yes, because you're always buying bikes from him. I very much doubt he'd have the same approach if I walked through the door and ask have you got any Cat.Ds |

I very much doubt he'd have the same approach if I walked through the door and ask have you got any Cat.Ds Steve has helped people out in the past I've only recommended to him. He did Arc a cracking good deal on that Triumph, when he px'd his exup against it. And he did those blue spots cheap for Nismo coz he knew Stu wasn't loaded. Plus some others off exup forum he's done discounted stuff before now. But yes you are right in that he helps me out a lot compared to what another dealer might otherwise offer. But I'm very grateful and not complaining. |
