If you don't smile at the advert you didn't read it correctly :lol:
Too much ? Does the cheek warrant the price?

That looks a nice bike, I wouldn't be surprised they would get £3500 fairly easy. Restoring soon mounts up on cost. If I didn't have one already (even if it's a bit rough) I'd be tempted by that.

I did see that the comment was noted. Wonder if the listing was proof read before posting it up?

As for the price, rarity value?

I'm sure that was £3900 last night, now at £3695 - it's so tempting, anyone want a scruffy(ish) 250 partly done for £2k with about £200 of parts to help it on it's way?! :lol:

I get your thinking there UB why not slip in a cheeky offer nearer £2750 and let it fester in the minds eye , then when no one bids after 2nd listing maybe it'll pay off...if not you go back to plan A ;) which is to convince yourself that you will find the time/ motivation to sort yours ...just saying :lol: :!:
