Default Anyone in southampton??????

Right guys i am hoping someone in southampton might be pretty close to a set of Motorcycle fairings on ebay, i live in glasgow and its going to be a complete bitch to drive down to, so was wondering if anyone fancied nipping round and quickly checking them out for me???

I know its a longshot but i would be greatly appreciated as i have been let down before when i went to pick up some "lightly scratched" fairings.

The traveling would be a right bitch just now as i am offshore!!!! But if someone can have a weee looksie if its close and confirms that everything is not fkd, i can pay the guy over paypal etc and obviously if someone goes and looks for me i will compensate them too. Then i can pick them up once i come home.

The guys also not posting them so i will need to drive down to pick them up at some point, the tanks included so its going ot be pretty bulky and heavy.

I'm going there this afternoon to collect some coilovers.

I have sent the guy a message to find out if he is anywhere near where I'm heading, if so I can check them out, although I'm on a tight schedule so he does have to be close to where I'm going.

I may be able to collect them today as well if he comes up with a price you like and he will sell out of ebay. Have asked him how much he wants.

I'm in Somerset so a little further North than Southampton so less far for you possibly!

Can you PM me your tel no, and I'll ring you if I do get to look at the kit or if I hear from him at all?

Si

PS Obviously if I don't hear from him before I get there, I won't be able to help - I'll be there aroud 3pm ish. May have to use someone else who actually lives down there if so.

Doubt he will have heard anything from the seller Ryan, he is pretty slow with replies by email, was a very nice gesture by Si though, the guy hasnt even replied to my mail yet asking if its possible to see them before the auction ends and his address if it was cool.....

I'm back home.

Didn't hear from the seller sorry Cutch No email or phone call and I had access to both.

If I do hear from him eventually I'll forward on anything I get to you.

Good offer by Ryan too


Did get a run out in a 600 bhp Evo so wasn't a totally wasted trip for me

Si, thanks mate, the run out sounds like fun too!

I aint heard a thing either, dont think he's really caring too much about it since they are his mates. Ah, well no matter, thanks for all the offers guys, it means alot to someone north of the border.

Cutch,

Got this message from him last night:


hello si.sorry only just got you massages.been working the late shif at work.you can come and have a look at the 2moro after 530 and make me an offer.i live right next to the services on the m27.thanks phil


I was literally 2 miles from the services Even stopped in their for some fuel when I went out in my mates rapido Evo

If he had sent that a couple days ago it would have been ideal

I may very possibly be going back there this weekend, if so I'll let you know.

Si
