Ade, I'll be there to pick it up later mate. You can give me a couple of quid my way. You have started to look comfy on it now!

Badger, its an S reg in silver, mint condition, only mods it has are the tail tidy, goes well an I think it is a minter!

Oh and its a TL1000s

Hmm depending on insurance I might be interested.

Got an X (2000) Naked Curvey in blue.

You looking for a straight swap?

Some pics would be nice and how many miles has it done?

Cheers

I think he'll be looking for a bit of cash his way Graham, he did a straight swap for his pointy which he listed at £2500, he may well do though...Will text him and tell him to update some details and get some piccys. Or i'll go and get some of it.

Cheers mate. Would only be looking for a straight swap though as I might be taking a big jump in insurance.

rite...
the bike has done just under 23,000 miles, its a 99 on an s reg, as plowsie said its silver and a minter!! and has been well looked after, it has service history, 2 keys , and all the papers from previous mots and such, like i said in after a sv again... would like a curvey... but wouldent rule out the pointy option again.

am struggleing to get pics up on ere due to my camera being an ****, will sort asap, as for the condision..... chain and spockets are fine...but could do with front tyre, other than that there are few minor marks, and the bike is mechanically sound, rides real smooth and real fast!!!! lol, only mods done are small but tidy indys, n a tail tidy.

ady,

If you are serious about a possible swap mate can you let me know asap. You seem to be ignoring my posts and my pm for more info.:confused:

No point in me phoning round for insurance quotes if this isn't going to happen.

I'm quite happy to meet you half way up the M1 one weekend or if you and plowsie fancy a weekend in the dales then you can come and stay up here and pitch your tent up in the garden.

No probs if you are not interested just let me know either way.

Cheers

Gordon

Any chance this could stay on topic ? Not really helping the OP swap his bike for something else is it ?

If you want to discuss the TL and its merits, start a new thread maybe ?

plowsie
24-09-08, 01:47 PM
I Pm'd Ping asking nicely to move it all Fizz :)

Done.

OK any more off topic carp in this thread is going to get deleted. I've split off the conversation into a TL discussion thread thats in bikes talk and issues.

Let us know what the difference is.

What mods are done ady? Suppose Jamaxx would need to know that?

Tail Tidy and mini indis. That is all.

I have thought about putting an air freshener on his bars, but shhhhh, don't tell him!

OK quote came back as an extra £115 for the rest of my policy year.

With that and the increased running costs I'm afraid this won't get past the finance director.

Will withdraw my interest and wish you all the best in finding a suitable px.
