Would you be sceptical? Seriously thinking about buying it but doesn't seem rite does it? I rang and they told me the original owner only put up 51 miles on it before leaving it parked up in his shed for ages...hmmm

Sound plausible?

very possible...

could be a 'back to biking' biker who bit off more than he could chew... you'd know fairly snappy if its never been driven more than 100 miles by looking at it in person..

your problem would be when it comes to VRT, because it does not have the min miles, you'll have to pay VRT and VAT

Happens a lot in the UK with dealers pre registering bikes, and cars, to meet distributer quotas. The full VAT will be the killer unless you took the long way home around Europe.

It'd cost the same in petrol as the vrt would be. But then you get a trip into Europe!

I'd rather have a spin around Europe than give them the VAT, definitely a better memory than punching your PIN into a machine in an office.
