Hi thanks, I am in Godstone, Surrey. M25 Junction 6.

Carbon frame protectors included. The only thing not included in the pics is the tom tom charger lead as I took that off as one of my others broke.

Hello matey... been a while... Street Triple is going, as is the VTR... Keeping the Pan and the CB1300 for now. Really stings getting rid of the Street Triple because it's such a fantastic bike, but i am trying to get rid of any form of loans/credit etc, even though the street is on 0% it's not something i need to weigh out right now - need to sort my house as work may force me selling up next year... not what I want to do but rather be prepared now than panicing in the spring...

Still got your VTR? :)

Yes your exempt as you was a member before the new ruling came into place. Thanks for reading the rules though, it's nice to know some folks do. :thumbup:

Good luck with the sale, that's a lot of bike for the money.
