    One of those is on MY watch list. Haven't you heard of respect for your elders. You young 'uns wait , and be satisfied with our leavings. Anyway, it's in Dorkland. Cost you a thousand bucks to freight it down.

    Bloody young puppies, no respect these days, dunno what the worlds coming to, in my day etc etc

    EDIT And I reckon my Firefox skin is better too, though I use Opera mainly nowdays

    Lol, been there done that. Just make sure you go around and check it out physically and preferably ride it, before you enter your final bid!

    I see you may be stepping up to a 600 then?

    That's not excessive, they're mostly all 400s.
    Now throw in a Busa, ZX14 and a rocket and that will up the ante.

    I'm using 'FormalGnome'. It looks really cool.

    No, the 400 is certainly not excessive.

    Ever notice that anyone slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?

    Mate, you change your advice more often than I change my undies.
    Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.

    FINE. This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

    There are alot of people out there who are just looking to make a quick buck and dont mind who they rip off in the process. Nothing is better and more important than checking the bike out in person and taking it for a test pilot. Hopefully in that time you'll be able to identify what sort of bike it is and help decide if its worth your $$$ or not.
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
