Thank you.  Yes he is very fair and I always think it’s like swings and roundabouts.  So that’s why I don’t mind helping out like that. We have a small but good team that get the work done 👍

Hope you have had a great Holiday and was well fed and watered 🤣

I'd buy the cheapest thing they have listed just to leave negative feedback, bellends

They would probably remove the listing and re-list at at double the cost! lol

I have been doing a few hours extra at work, due to the pallet network that we use going bust. So we have found another network to do our odd pallets ( full loads go direct ) any how the jobs were all picked and the shunts were all done. So my boss said you have been staying late quite a bit ( they do not pay overtime) so why don’t you go early the sun is out and go out on your bike.
Well I didn’t need telling twice 🤣.
So I had went out for a couple of hours around some lovely B roads and A few A roads, stopping off at The museum of power in Langford near Maldon in Essex for a picture or 2. Riding though some of the villages the kids were getting off of the school buses and they were gesturing with there hands to rev the Engine 🤣🤣 which I duly did as the Harley sounds great on the overrun 🤣
In the pictures you will see a Heron which I thought it was one of the plastic ones until it flew off ( second picture it has gone )

My Adventure rider mate was talking to a bloke at work about his up coming trip. The bloke said he would like to get a bike he could go touring on.

So today he came to have a look at my V-Strom. He was very impressed with the condition and the running of the bike. I said take it up the road for a ride. Which he did when he come back he said it is so different to what I am used to . (Bandit 1200 and current bike Honda CBF 1000 ) he said he is more than happy with the deal. BUT  he was not sure at the moment. He sent a couple of pictures to his wife and she replied that’s a lovely bike just buy it you will soon get used to it.
So his decision was to go and think about it and let me know later in the week.

Don't get me started. I had the 125 Repsol up on eBay listed as a non-runner/light project as all it needs is a new battery and MOT - I just don't have the time and space with 7 bikes. Had an offer which I acceted. Turns out it's Motorcycle Giant in Shepherd's Bush. anyway, courier comes to collect bike, gets on phone to buyer and confirms condition, all OK. Then he wants to hear it running so the courier pops a little jump pack on it but it won't start (no surprise considering the battery voltage is well under 3v so it'll just soakthat up). Then he tells the bloke to walk away because it won't start! FFS! I listed it clearly as a non-runner!  :wnk: :wnk: :wnk:

Disgusting behaviour by Cheshire Bike Breakers on ebay if you ask me....

They have listed a few YBR Custom parts on eBay with "Make an offer" as an option.

So I put in some offers on a few tid bits I am after. Things like a replacement ECU, Side panels etc.

Example of the bullCinnamon Swirltery. The ECU was listed for £39.99 or best offer. I made an offer for £30 thinking they would come back with a counter of £35 ish.

Nope, They REMOVED the item and re-listed it today for £64.99. They have done the same thing with the other parts. Removed the listing and doubled the price!

Not the kind of thing I will stand for so even if I need a part and they have it. I am not giving them my money now.
I suppose there may still be other people out there who are happy to pay £65 but I'm not since I saw the OG listing price!
