    Hello

    First post always wanted a fireblade and been recommended to purchase one. Had a r1 ktm 640 supermoto, had a break for couple years now in market for another sports bike.

    Seen this on eBay looks great and ticks all boxes but after reading a lot of horror stories about oil consumption and the crank and abs unsure if to risk this or save more for a 13 plate etc

    I've seen this seller on eBay a few times and often wondered who he is. His adverts are always the same, the descriptions are always over the top and sickly like this one and his photos are always professional and taken in the exact same location and manner as this one. Has anybody bought a bike off him? Wonder where he gets his stock from? Bike looks tidy though, someone else here will tell you if the price is right and whether to expect problems with a 2010 bike. Happy hunting.

    He has been on evilbay for years selling bikes. I've nearly gone to see one in the past when looking as he does seem to get decent bikes in.

    I suspect he either buys part ex from main stealers or is one of those we will buy your bike type outfits.

    Either way his bikes look good and decent feedback.

    2013 bike available for 500 more though

    Thought the 2010 just over priced for me. to many miles on the 2013 one. I'v seen a few with 7000 miles for £7000. I'v even seen one with 1000 miles from a shop for £7000. Its end of season. And the likes of these superstores are only offering £5000-£5500 for 12/13 plate bikes so £6000 is a possibility in the next 2 months.

    Thanks for your replies guys, I've also been following him on evilbay and his adverts are always the same but must admit they do look like good bikes.

    I also started coming across 12/13 plates for £500 more. I'll save a little more and keep a look out in next couple months see if I can find one
