No trace of a bike team with that name, and the stamping on the crankcases in the last picture is definitely not Hondas.
Seller has two feedback only, from 2010.
The current only bidder has a retraction in the last six months, and no other activity in the last 30 days.
Be very careful....
Might be worth a check with the local stolen vehicle squad, if you're interested in it.
if it's legit, the seller won't mind.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Re: Ebay Finds Mmmm lovely 2nd hand brake pads

Post by tony.mon »

Anyone fancy some slightly worn (but with plenty of life in them, only nicked with a screwdriver in one corner but it won't affect braking performance) brake pads?
I'm watching these, don't snipe me now....

Oh, go on then, snipe me; I've just blown my money on a 2nd hand tissue, only used once.

Do you own a red Storm? Need more luggage space? Want to make it look more like a Goldwing? Can't get enough of the redness? Try these-

That is super rare. I didn't even think someone made panniers designed specifically for the storm. It don't matter what the colour is as they are worth re-spraying if ones into touring. But I don't think they will be any good with high level cans.

Maybe the listing should read How to Convert Your VTR into a VFR :lol:

They are ghastly allright, buy 'em fit them with a bag tank & a fuel pump & instantly triple your range, jobs a good 'un...although very very ugly...
