As if Selling my SV was not bad enough..

I found out yesterday that the GSXR750 i was looking at buying is a Insurance Cat C write off..... how bloody gutted am i... so i am now looking around, but may be without a bike for a wee while.... after nearly being stung with that.. i want to make sure i get the exact bike i want... nothing less....

So i am now, without my beautiful SV, and less DJ equipement.

Chin up m8. Everything happens for a reason, you'll find a better one for less money, soon.

At least you found out before you bought it

Cat C isn't a bad thing really, as long as the bikes been repaired fully and the price reflects the cat C record then go for it, get a bargain. My SV was a cat C write off however it's excellent condition, decent bike with lots of money gone into it and was bought at a great price!

Would you trust someone who 'forgot' to mention it though?

If the seller was that dishonest, I wouldn't buy either, you don't know what else might be wrong with it.

Ahhh yes that's a bit different if they don't mention it.. as I say if it was stated and the price reflects it then there is nothing wrong with Cat C bikes.

Shame they didn't state it though and good luck finding another

Well BigApe has kindly agreed to view one for me in Newbury.... i would go myself, but it is a bit far, and i trust his view... if there is a fault, he will find it......

So when you read this, thanks you BigApe!!!

Are you trying to say that Big Ape can recognise crash damage at a hundred paces?
