Featured Got A Surprise Letter This Morning

Well me ole mate, they need never know , just bring some of the treasure you dug up to the BBR hospitality suite at the weekend and you secret is safe with me .

 

Really , can't believe that you would make that up just to wind her up ....



.... of course I realised there was no treasure honest!

 

in 1989 or so I sold a Norton 750 Combat Commando for what I thought was stupid good money. I instantly regretted it and asked the buyer if he would consider selling it back to me, he said no. I asked him to keep my number if he ever changed his mind. 17 years went by and in 2006 my mother said some guy called about a bike and she gave him my new number. It was Mr. Norton Commando and he wanted to sell. I asked how much and said he wanted what he paid for it $2000 USD, he said he never rode it, I bought it and it looked exactly like it did when I sold it. I rode that bike for a month and the old problems of electric, leaks, wooden brakes and rocking horse frame.

I then remembered why I sold it, so on eBay it went, I made another stupid tidy profit and thats why you should not worry about this guy. If you like it, keep it. He might sell it again when things change

 

Yeah, there's loads on a roll of insulating tape, Dilli.

 

File his letter for 3 years then have a rethink.

 

Go bike shopping, ignore prices (within reason), get quotes on custom paint jobs.

Decide if you would swap your bike for the new one with paint job. If not then just keep the offer in mind, file the letter. If you would swap then;

If the new one is less than what you have been offered, go ahead and sell.

If the new one is more than what you have been offered then go back an explain why you would sell for the higher amount.

 

One question Tez,,,,why would you want to sell

 

Ooooh what ya ganna get

 

Well done Tez.

Will the next bike be towing a certain trailer or will it be sold or are you keeping that decision under your hat so as to keep a certain member on here dangling

 

Rocket 3?

 

Nice story, depends how much you are selling it for, personally i would let him have it back and get the new TFC rocket, what a bike that is…..
