SP2 for £3500

Post by tony.mon »

Here's a little project:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... escription

Needs a bit of work, but not much, but I'd want to be sure about title and the "repair to DOT standards" bit.....
Only one bent fork leg?

Seems unlikely.

Opinions?

could be a bit of a bargain this, repairs have been done would be better as per honda ie body work etc.

Went for £2500.

Now if you just replace the bodywork and headlight, and fit some cans, that's a mint one for seriously good money.

And I know what you mean about a cat C, but IMO it only matters when you come to sell it.
(as long as the repairs were done properly).

Didn't know about insurance, but then as I'm now old, I only pay 2s/6d a year, so it doesn't matter much....
