Seeking help - any kind soul in Christchurch willing to check over a bike for me?

Hi all

I'm looking for my 2nd bike now due to the first being stolen

I'm looking at a Yamaha Virago 535 in Christchurch City

Could anyone help me out with going and having a good look over it, preferably a test ride? & when I travel down to collect it, I'll take you out for tea (probably not the fanciest place) or a crate of your fave bevvy, what ever your preference

Oh

I just tried to PM you but I got a msg saying my site involvement isn't enough to use the PM system yet

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=340081930 - this is the bike, there's a ph number there, not the same as the one I have, I think it's the wife's but I'm sure she can help. I spoke to the husband this morning and my name is Olivia. She'd be able to verify that with him.

FYI - I'm comparing it to this bike: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=332103777 hopefully I can get that viewed this weekend.

Thank you soooo much!!!

I think he black one is in better condition,well looked after and lower kms...the orange on has a few spots of rust and a very high kms and the rear tyre lookes squared off......even though its younger my choice would be the black one and maybe you can barter the price down a bit....
