I nearly bought a bike from Midland Superbikes (MS) a few weeks before they collapsed and would have done had the bike been an ABS model. Glad I didn't.

Anyone who has bought a bike from MS needs to check if they actually own the bike. If it wasn't MS's bike to sell, but a customer, then they didn't have legal title to sell it, they were acting as an agent on behalf of the owner and they should be telling the buyer this, and be contacting the owner to inform and seek authorisation from them on any negotiations that take place. If the owner has not agreed to the sale, and the money never reached them, has the bike legally been sold, and does the new owner legally own it?
I guess the purpose of this thread, assuming the allegations that bikes have been sold without the owners knowledge is true, is to see if anyone knows where the buyers of those bikes now stand, with regards to legal ownership?
