View Full Version : sad sad day

I am selling my beloved raptor. It has a new rear brake disc and mot. its W reg.
anyone who loves the v twin but wants something bigger its ideal. very low seat and upright riding position. has the tl1000 engine.

Ooooh- real bad day.
Can it really not be avoided? Do you really need that cage? Home shopping might be the answer unless you plan on bringing furniture home??????
Hope it works out for you.
Garry:rolleyes:
unfortunately need the cage, got to transport kids to clubs and saturday jobs etc. bike is a luxury I can no longer afford. will buy a new one when I sell my flat next year. just looking at big picture. its fine. food is more of a necessity than bike
It's a sad day to be sure. I'm assuming you've done the maths regarding simply taking it off the road and downgrading your insurance to F&T only...
... if it's gotta go it's gotta go... doesn't mean you have to leave here as well though.
Silver lining and all that. ;)
oh you wont be getting rid of me that easily lol just the raptor that is going not me too

"I used to have a bike you know..."

Aw, no... Now who's going to pick up my bike for me?
Gutted for you though... I know what it's like to have to hang up your boots, even if only for a while. And yes, I really want your Raptor, and no, I can't have it.
:(
Noo, your Raptor can't go. As Northwind said not having a bike is gutting, & soul destroying (ok maybe I'm exaggerating a tad there).
Shame I'm skint as!!
