Help needed, buying second hand bike

Firewalkwithme · 2005-11-22 09:43:39

Tomorrow I'm going to have a look at a second hand bike I'm thinking of buying. It's a private sale so I'm looking for a few tips, things to look out for etc. It's a Honda Varadero 125. Also, does anyone know of a motorcycle mechanic who I could get to have a look over the bike before I buy it? I might also need someone…

Also, does anyone know of a motorcycle mechanic who I could get to have a look over the bike before I buy it?

I might also need someone with a suitable van to deliver the bike to me so if anyone knows of someone who does such a service I'd be grateful if you could let me know.

Thanks.

They lads in the motorcycle recovery service (as per Jackal's post) know their way around a bike, so you could ask them to have a look.
