I have a 1999 Yamaha Diversion taxed but just out of MOT. Needs back tyre and fork oil seals, which I have just ordered. Bergundy faired version, tidy condition. I have owned it 3 years and been ultra reliable. Very comfy bike,31000miles, 70mpg! Any interest to you. (Located North Yorks) £700

Pedal cycles don't need tax or test anyway.

I have a 15 yr old mountain bike that you could have for 50 quid.

On a serious note, if you can't afford £700 for the bike, assuming you want it for road use, you can't afford the tax, test, insurance, petrol, or anything else, so stop dreaming and keep change in your pocket for the bus.

LOL! And what if he has factored in the cost of the tax, test and insurance etc and come up with £500 to spend on the bike?? lol!

Maybe he just wants a really cheap hack and isn't prepared to pay much for it!

Compared to the annual costs of running a bike 200 quid once off outlay is neither here nor there, and how could he possibly have factored in the cost of getting an as yet non existent bike through an MOT?
