Where was the ad?

I would NOT give him my address, but I would go and look.

yeah, 9 times out of 10 its too good to be true but every now and again....

If you see it and go through all the usual HPI checks and don't part with any cash until its a done deal, then you have nothing to lose.

i think i will email him saying i want to go and look at it at his home in bristol, he has my email adress (can he do anything with it?), but i wont give him my adress and defantly no bank details, if the log book matchs the bike and its in his name, what else could be wrong?
and its only in bristol so xan maybe i could pick up some of those third reich magic beans at the same time

Hovis, walk away from this one please. I smell something dodgy about it; it might seem like the perfect bike but there may be no bike, he might just be out to do you over ands make a runner with your dosh.

You'll find your fireblade, don't worry about that. Just don't go for this one

Seen this scam so many times.. It's always on ebay, usualy cars.

Ask yourself one question Hovis..

Does it sound too good to be true??

cant see there would be any harm is going to see it. or get the taffia lot to go en masse. i think its something to do with his divorce. wifey wanting half of everything. if he sells bike quickly he has cash which he can hide from her

then again im very gullible
