Hello from Poole
First topic message reminder :
Hi all,
After a break of 15 years since I last owned two wheels. I have just put a desposit on the following Cat.
[img][/img]
She is a 97 on a P with only 18K miles, FSH and a lot of recipts to go with it. When I went and looked at it first time I noticed there was oil on the front tyre and it turns out the fork oil seal had gone on one side.
So I left it at that point to have a think about it. But decided that it was the right bike for me so went back the next day. When I got to the shop the bike was no where in site and I thought "crap" they have sold it. But it turns out they had the cat in the workshop and the forks are going to need a complete refurb as there is pitting on both forks (Shop owner not happy as the MOT was only done in late May and should have been picked up then). So hopefully that will be done this week and I can pick the bike up next Sat. Fingers crossed.
I have sorted Helmet and boots from my brother (GSXR750 owner) so just need to source a Jacket and trowsers for the first ride
With no NCD I thought £170 full comp is very resonable and very happy to pay that.
Regards,
Richard

Re: Hello from Poole
Hi All,
Well the Silver and yellow bike was never mine :( Dealer kept promising me the bike would be fixed by the next week and so after 4 weeks of empty promises I decided to get my deposit back.
So I went on to the web that day and found another "cat" via eBay.
Pic's can be been seen here New Bike Finally
