God knows how long until someone else crashes their 17 year old GSXR on the right hand side.

I know, I should have just bought it earlier. tw&t.
I had that on a super rare part about 6 months ago, I thought I won't give him offers because he must know this will get bidded up massively and it annoys sellers. Then it disappeared - so I emailed the bloke basically saying "I saw it first" ; unbelievably he said 'give me a fiver more than the buyer and you can have it and I'll tell them I lost it' (not worth messing someone round for £5 I thought!) - the buyer only paid £150 it turned out and I expected it to go for £300 . £155 and I have my holy grail motorcycle bit.

In short - email the seller ... it might not be too late!
