just putting he feelers out to see if anyone is feeling wealthy with a few quid at there disposal, considering selling these pair of puppies in a bid to raise some funds and also to let someone else enjoy there beauty instead of being stuck in my loft forever and a day, i know i will regret it but thats my problem ... i've wanted them, got them, minted them up and now letting them go to move on in life with a bit of folding in my pocket....
as yet they are not up for splitting but may consider at a later date if they dont go as completes..
what are your opinions on value please, i have a good idea obviously but just want a bit of confirmation of others and to see if anyone is willing to pay for minted fully loaded bikes...

can we find out where you live and what time you are likely to be out

skint is the word

Mate..........they are both sweet bike's

i only wish i had 'the coloured folding stuff' spare in my wallet

I'd tear my right arm off for those bikes(especially the Gen 1

) , it puzzle's me though how you could part with them after all your hard work?
If you still have the Gen 1 in 4month's time(i very much doubt it though) i'll come calling

All the best with your sale fella

trouble i've found in the past trying to sell complete bikes is that the fun of finding the parts for a f & f and building the bike up at the end is gone.
most would sooner do that than buy a bike thats all done.
thats why a lot get broke up in the end.
proper sickner though when there all in bits all over the floor again after looking so cool.

Very true.

You have to split them up, they will send in no time & you will get a lot more money
