    Have you bought it yet, Paul? I'm sure I can hear it calling your name...

    yeah, thanks for the reminder. I am still a little disappointed in that outcome... but oh well.

    I had it on my watchlist & was going to have a crack at it until you & SuziQ had a bidding war

    It looked OK by the photos, why the disappointment?

    I didnt get it. My autobid was up to ~1600 (I thought for something that had been parked in a shed for 8 years that I hadnt seen and didnt know ran or what was missing..... that $1500 was plenty, add ten percent plus a bit and away we go. It eventually sold for $2100 plus so I was waaaay under.

    my disappointment is that theres been nothing like it since, (there was a good RD350A but it went for near four grand)... and, shit, I wanted it....

    but thinning the herd and then F3 bike are present priorities.

    Oh true, it would have been a reasonable buy at around the $1500 mark but for safeties sake there would have been a major exploratory strip down done and a few hundred spent on replacing suspect bits.

    I saw that RD350

    temptation has the better of me with these 2 bikes
