    I concur. A R6 is a big jump from a 125.

    It has had about £100 worth of seed and stuff on it. It went all moss'ie and I have got rid of that but it isnt in the best condition I must admit. As for the bike! Still waiting for parts from the UK, the US and Thailand. Some spraying of the panels, the seat needs repairing, base sprayed and putting togther. Insurance (The model doesn't even show up on comparison sites), MOT and TAX. Then a shakedown. Less than 2 weeks. It is going to be tight so hopefully no rain to stop play!!

    True Kev. Mine is still "work in progress". Still a lot to do and I really need to get it MOT'ed by next weeked if it is going to make Squires. How it stands today:

    No worries. There is a 2010 one, which looks a little better, for sale at the moment. 2 years older and could be used as a reference. LINKY If it doesn't sell I would get it home and take some additional photos and re advertise it. Also make sure the dealer isn't charging you a day rate for storing the bike. You may end up with a bill from them.

    List the good bits in the ad, make them statements. The salient info can get lost. You should check the following statements but people like lists Insurance not recorded No finance outstanding Brought new this year V5 and xx sets of keys (red one??) One owner Buyer to collect within xx days. Cash payment required within xx days Engine still runs perfectly (?) MOT not required until April 2015 Etc..

    So there is a possibility of a claim. Amazing the number of people who change their minds after an accident. The bike would still be unrecorded as far as I am aware and this needs to me mentioned when selling. Just a line saying "third party insurance so not recorded". The reality of it is how you advertise it. This will make a difference to the money you would get back. If it goes for £500, someone would have got an absolute bargain.

    Great stuff Mike. I thought you had ridden a cow to the MOT to start with.
  13. DirtyDT replied to jeannette's post in a topic in Yamaha Workshop
    Not sure about this and it makes a huge difference. If your son came off and there is no claim from anyone else then it should be "unrecorded". If so the value would be a lot higher than any bike where a payment or claim has been made and a category assigned. If it is unrecorded you need to say so in the ad. Explain concertina accident please.

    Worth well over £1000 in that condition would be my guess. Very sought after for the learners and a '12 plate. Got to be worth at least that.

    As YPVS Tone. Left is Dark green and black earth Right is Chocolate and Black earth Flasher unit connections are Brown and Brown/White You need to explain at what stage you are having a problem. Have you found the Dark green and chocolate wires? Have you got a flasher relay in place? Have you connected them but they don't flash or flash really quickly?

    If it has been continuously off the road before 1998 and has NOT been taxed, insured or SORN then you need to nothing. The TS is in this category. If it has been taxed, insured or SORN then you need to keep the SORN current and re-SORN it annually.

    Many thanks.

    Only been in the back of one once but I was in a coma and don't remember a thing about it. Scary day at work tomorrow though. I have to ask the strapped cash top bosses for 13 million squiddies!
