Posted October 20, 201113 yr 0 replies in the bar Moved here in the hopes of some help. My friend Andre is looking for a bike. He's 20 in a few weeks and I was either looking into getting him a bike (Would have to be dirt cheap) or helping him find a bike. Does anyone have any suggestions as to WHAT bike he could get nice and cheap? Does anyone know where to get said bike in london? Much love to you all!
October 20, 201113 yr Moderator how about a YBR125? great little bikes but as for cheap I dunno, thats for you to find one
October 20, 201113 yr Author I'm talking like DIRT cheap! Also, if anyone has an old 125 in their garage?
October 21, 201113 yr Just to let ya know,,,,,,, if ya get a dirt cheap bike for your mate there will be work need to do on it. So ye have 2 options,,,,,,,,,1) buy cheap bike, spend as much again fixing it up,,,,,,,,2) save for a half deecent bike that needs no work.
October 21, 201113 yr Author Sadly, I just saw him today and he's in a bit of a state.... Ex-girlfriend being a bitch, got offered a job but cant take it or his mother loses her benefits (that she relies on)(Legitimately sick and unable to work)(Caring for 2 children)(He's doing most of the caring) He wont have money to fix it up and he wont have money for a mechanic.... I was gonna buy him a haynes manual to go with the bike and let him use my garage and tools. He'll benefit for the hands on work He'll enjoy the work Anyways, he's my best mate in the whole world and I wanna do something epic for him. I'd love anyone who could help forever! Point me towards a cheap bike!
October 22, 201113 yr Author you mean my 1 month old 61plate ybr? The one that is my baby? my first bike that i'll remember forever? Thats an excellent idea!

Yep!! ..........................He wont have money to fix it up and he wont have money for a mechanic.... Anyways, he's my best mate in the whole world and I wanna do something epic for him.
October 22, 201113 yr He's no money to fix a bike up He's no money to buy a bike He's no income Without income, he wont be able to afford to run the bike (tax/insurance/mot/fuel) From the content of previous posts, it appears that his mothers benefits are keeping him then I conclude the best chance of him beng able to afford a motorcycle is for him to take employment
October 23, 201113 yr Author neversaydie. you raise good points. The problem is, his mother is sick and NEEDS the benefits. he cant get a job or she loses those benefits. So he needs a house. Cant get a house without a job... FUCK THE SYSTEM!
