HI, Me and Martin here visited a car dealer who has a low mileage RR5 Repsol for sale..200 miles round trip for me..but enjoyed the drive.. Keep away and do not buy this bike.. We found the following: Mileage discrepancy: 2008 MOT showed 3000 odd miles, the service stamp in 2009 had 2000 odd miles on it Left Panel Had been resprayed Rear Cowl had a crack in it I called the company that did the service, they said they do not keep records of mileage or what work was carried out - VERY Suspicious The seller suggested i alter the service book before i sell on the bike! Link to the Add... HONDA CBR 1000 cc CBR1000RR-5 1000rr Fireblade
Yea this thing looked nice at first glance, was polished so well you could see your face in it but the closer you looked the worse it got, it had had a repair on the side that just happened to be against the wall the repair was bad the orange was slightly darker than other side and looked like orange peel, millage had been messed with, service book will now be changed. Don't fall for it guys I'm pretty sure this has done alot more miles than 6k
Deffo been on the track with those tyres..... there are some right dodgy bast.... about. I once went on a long trip to buy a car and after loads of conversations etc with the garage i thought it was mint.......... my arse it was ! I felt like hitting the sod when i got there.
the dealer said he had someone coming on Sunday - no doubt the service book would have been altered by now.. Anyway..the guy who was due to go down Sunday read my post on firebladerriders forum - and decided not to go..
Well done mate! We should of taken a pic of the book as it was and then I could of arranged to see again and then reported him to trading standards.
Never thought of that....oh well... one day to go..just need to figure out how to get to Southend to collect my new bike..
You Might have to speak to the wife nicely and buy her some new shoes or something Or just take her car and tell her she needs to pick it up from southend
