Any experience of MotoLink in Pontypool
I like the look of this. Cheap delivery too:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/275038783971
The bike is a bit cheaper than I'd expect. They do have feedback but no bikes sold in the last year. And their Google reviews suggest they're a mobile tyre fitter.
Is that too many red flags? I guess this would be a safer bet: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/203719815627
Although if I went to look at that I could get tempted by this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/203691348636
I'm still considering the lilac / red / green Aprilia AF1 too. But it's a lot of money for an old 125 which doesn't work right.

Re: Any experience of MotoLink in Pontypool
If I was confident it was good I'd be tempted to buy it unseen and get it delivered. But there could be all sorts of typical used bike issues like accident damage, clocking etc.
If it was nearer I'd go and look at it but it'd make as much sense to buy the slightly more expensive 2020 one which is much nearer to me.
I wondered if anyone knew the dealer and could say if they were established and reputable.

Redundancy payment burning a hole in your pocket?

I've spent most of it on TWOC'y trainers. And I've got a job which starts in January. Where did my three months off go?KungFooBob wrote: ↑Tue Dec 14, 2021 11:19 am Redundancy payment burning a hole in your pocket?

It's Pontypandy, go and look at them in person and pop in and see Fireman Sam and Naughty Norman Price

Re: Any experience of MotoLink in Pontypool
Word is they're fine - fairly new but do move a few bikes. Obviously can't shout for the individual bike you're looking at but it's not a made up bike shop in someone's back bedroom..

Re: Any experience of MotoLink in Pontypool
Thank you. Maybe I should go for it. Someone fairly local has kindly offered to go and have a look at it too.

Re: Any experience of MotoLink in Pontypool
I had one a few years back. And it was standard not all messed about with and yellow.
This is it. Die Klassicerenduro.
It was ok but I wouldn't have another.
