As a follow on to the Black SP2 for £3000 on ebay, I emailed the guy for a location whilst the listing was still active. Next thing the listing had been removed. Here follows further email exchanges:
"I now see listing has been removed? Can I ask, bike sold or change of heart?
Regards
Tim"
"Hello,
Are you still interested ? The bike is still for sale. Immaculate condition, no damages, nothing to worry about. All necessary documents available. My current location is Scotland due to my work commitments. If this is going to be a quick sale, I will let it go for £3,000 delivered at my costs.
The deal will go strictly according to eBay Buyer Protection rules and policy.
Thank you
Franck"
REMEMBER, THIS GUY WAS NOT IN ANY HURRY TO SELL THE BIKE AS WAS STATED IN THE AD
"Thanks for your reply Franck. I was after your location as I would have liked to have a look at the bike had it not been too far away. Obviously, Scotland kind of kills that idea. I am interested in the bike but need a little time to think about your offer. If possible, could you send me the pics of the bike as I can no longer access your listing as it has been removed? Obviously, if you are away from your usual computer I appreciate this might not be possible.
Cheers.
Tim"

Honda SP2 in excellent condition. This bike is truly awesome and becoming much sought after! The sound it makes when opened up is truly fantastic.
I've just returned from IOM TT and it never fails to pull the looks. Nice to have a bike you don't see on every corner!
I have owned this bike since Feb 2009 and the previous owner was a friend of a friend so the bikes history can be traced back to date of registration when he purchased the bike from 'Dobles'.
It is fitted with the following extras:
Datatool System 3 Thatcham Approved Alarm with original installation certificate & operating instructions.
Both keys present and 2 alarm fobs
Smartwater Forensic Coding System
Carbon Can Co. end cans cost £420.00 (originals included in sale)
Power Commander 3 (set up on Dyno with paperwork to prove)
Quickshifter & Gear Selected Indicator
K&N Filter (original included in sale)
Carbon Look Hugger
Carbon Look Indicators (originals included in sale)
Braided Hoses
Galfer Disc Brakes Front & Rear
Bike has full Honda Service History at 619, 3600, 9279 and 11171 miles and the previous owner did extra oil & filter services in between.
Current Mileage - 12143 miles
MOT till 01/09/2012 and TAX till 28/10/2012
New battery fitted just 2 weeks ago!
Bike had 2 Michelin Pilot Road 2 tyres fitted June 2009 (mileage 9279) and still plenty of life left in them (I'm not a particularly aggresive rider!)
So why am I selling??? Mainly due to lack of use (3500 miles in 15 months and 2700 of them in just 3 trips!) and I want to concentrate more on my Enduro racing. So I am not desperate to sell the bike!
Franck""
Hi again Franck,
Can I just ask one question. Why did you pull the ebay listing if the bike is still for sale?
regards
Tim"
"I had some troubles with the fees payment and I had to end the ad. I spoke with eBay and we still have their support if you agree to proceed. Its still for sale.
Fees were finally paid which make us eligible to proceed.
Thank you
Franck"
NOW THAT LAST STATEMENT SAYS IT ALL FOR ME.
Hands up who else thinks this is a big scam. As the old saying goes, if something looks too good to be true......it usually is.
