Hope it works, just hang onto it and stuff it in the car when you sell it and keep the good one.

I nealry got an Austin Gipsy, a couple of years ago, like that, got out bid at the last second and the following day an e-mail from the new buyer offering it to me!! Think they had got carried away with biding, I thanked them but declined. :D

This is also how we got our new Mig, I expected to be out bid, and wasn't, thing is it was swmbo who saw the 'pop up' saying I had won :o :o Had to do a bit of quick thinking, if you know what I mean, we wanted on but this was an Auto. ::)

i have ncdc 2013 sat nav in the omega, this one will be for the corsa if it works, it'll replace the cdr2005 it currently has, if it needs a new code i'll still be in profit either way

make sure he's extreeeeemely observant when riding it, i witnessed a serious accident 2 days ago involving a woman who drove her hyundai accent across the path of a motorcyclist because she just didnt see him, he was travelling within the speed limit and still didnt stand a chance

it was only 2 months ago I also witnessed a minor accident involving a motorcyclist who hadnt been seen by another car driver, I understand now why my girlfriend doesnt want me to have one

You need a heavy bike!!

That said I hit a pickup dented his door, I bounced off sore shoulder and it stopped me crashing when I emergency braked and lost the front wheel on greasy town road.

***** builders pickup >:( (pulled out on me)

Had a car change lane onto me - my front wheel ripped off all of his door trim!

Car closed the gap while i was in it - he got deep scratches on his bonnet for his trouble off top box mounting bolts.

Yes, he has a really good one, hs has an off road bike, he's only fallen off a couple of times :exclamation :exclamation That was in thick Mud though.
I am an ex biker, though have access to one, but my brother is a ROSPA instructor and IAM, in his spare time, so he will be giving some advice.
