Default Should I be worried?

My brother sold his old rs125 today however the bloke who bought it came from london with no jacket and just one glove with no licence or insurance.

The bloke learnt to ride the bike in our street with aboslutly no idea about bikes (buying the most unreliable bike ever!!!)and basicly no idea!

I feel quite sorry for the dude he had his mrs with him and a 4 year old kid (he's bron in 1986) and i dont think he knows what he has let himself into!!

discus!

p.s i just been to the pub and cba to speel check! Guiness is not good for you!

+1 yorkie_chris. If the guy wants to take that chance then he is the idiot thats taking the chance! Its not your fault that he was top bidder! The guy sounds like a bit of an a**e but if he doesn't care, why should you?? It sounds bad but we all have common sense just some choose not to use it!

The guy will have bought it because he heard from his mate "ere it's fast as fk innit mate" why else does anyone buy an RS125?!?!?

If he's going to be that much of a plank then it's not your problem, if you're going to be a bleeding heart eejit then more fool you!

now in all fairness, I would have given him fair warning and advice, but it's not my place to take away peoples right to give me money!
