Hmmm...looks like I spoke too soon... embarrassed seller can't get it to start( I have a hunch or two why...battery obviously, but these things also drop fuel lines off the in tank pump.)
I've told him to sort it and call me when/if he does.
If he can't, then I might just have it for a vastly reduced price.

Oh, just reread my last post...looks like I'm callously waiting to rip him off!. I'm not, Ive told him what might be wrong with it,how to check it out and offered to talk it through with him.



Are you kidding? He gets the thing running OR you get it a lot cheaper is EXACTLY the way to go!!

Only if you want to take advantage of someone.
I don't.



I was actually trying to make you NOT feel like a douche.
Who said you're taking advantage of him?!!
How are you taking advantage of someone by expecting the bike you're looking to buy to actually run? Though when you thought it did run, the deal apparently hinged on the price of a friggin battery.
And if it doesn't run, why SHOULDN'T you expect it to be cheaper if it's a NON-RUNNER ffs.
