Looking for another cat

Hi all, been away from the forum for a few years after i sold my cat, now looking for another if anyone knows of any.
Had a look at some dealers but a bit expensive of course.

Many thanks

What is the maximum that you want to pay?

I think 1500 should get me a good one!

I've seen a few on eBay for that price, or thereabouts.

Stourbridge, West Midlands.

Straight up the M5 from Cardiff.

Seen this on ebay: Item number 164658045538 (couldnt figure out how to post the ad)
Said he would do it delivered for 1650 with new m.o.t
Any thoughts anyone?

Looks okay, just needs a few weekends to tidy up and paint the engine covers, replace rusty nuts etc.

The new chain he is fitting is a bonus, too. MOT history looks good, no serious failures in the past. Mileage was at 18,285 on 12 September 2020.

I would be inclined to leave the MOT renewal date as it is, doing pre MOT checks on the bike during the summer has to be better than doing it during freezing February, unless you intend to leave all the spanner work to someone else.

Yeh thats exactly what i thought, i had a look at his reviews and ratings are good, a possibility, i`ll sleep on it.

£1100 - Surrey.

Yeah thanks tee-forty, i saw this one, just too far away and havent access to van or trailer anyway.

Seller says: "I can potentially help with delivery depending on where you are based".

Van hire should be less than £100, but you would also need some straps, a ramp and an extra pair of hands, so it does complicate things.

Yeah cant be bothered with all that, want something up and running and reasonably local to me even if its something else.
