Re: Good time to buy?
 

have you tried putting an advert in the wanted section on here?
I am sure some one will want to trade up to something else before summer.
Good luck looking!

Re: Good time to buy?
 

seems a bit high to me. i got myself a k8 (with just under 17k miles) for 2.5k£ in May last year and that was from a dealer.

Re: Good time to buy?
 

sad thing is everyone up here seems to be buying older bikes, and the German's also cleared out Newcastle of 2 year old bikes for the last 2 years

Re: Good time to buy?
 

... and Polish folk make regular trips to collect older bikes by the van load :(
Our poor rate of exchange works in favour of visitors from the continent, and they can get a ferry to just outside Newcastle :(

It's getting more difficult to find bikes around the North East at sensible prices :(

ps. I'm still looking for a summer bike, let me know what you have :) (see ad in the wanted section, and apoligies for the semi-hijack :-$ )

Re: Good time to buy?

A good haggle could be possible its overpriced at 2k

Re: Good time to buy?

Interesting.Do I smell an export opportunity here,and the answer to our bankrupt nation's economic problems?:-$

Re: Good time to buy?
 

Best time to buy is when the weather is at its worse. Snow and ice. That now gone, people will already be thinking about spring and buying a bike. Much the same as yourself I expect.
