    Yamaha Slider X reg (2000)
    Leo Vince ZX Power pipe
    4900 Miles
    450 pound

    Seems like a good deal, not too many miles, bit phased about age though.

    Thanks

    Px166 had his up for 450 and that was a 52 plate, with new forks and it was prety clean so, i think your price is a bit steep for 2000.

    Well without pictures It hard to value... But I'd say its sounds like a gd deal if you try to drop him to 400ish?

    Yeh sorry, was in a bit of a rush when I posted that. It is in good condition no scratches etc no wear on tyre, willing to drop to 425. It is bexleyheath (greater London). I hope its not the one you are talking about, but howcome? is it stolen?

    Thanks

    its a slider, there hard to sell anyway. and the value of them does drop.

    id say look mate, 350 cash and i'll take it now.

    they go for 300 on ebay all day long

    I'd take a slider for that much, if its a good one obviously. My mate was gonna get an old one like the one mentioned for that much but it was scratched to hell according to him. Good buy :punk:

    no mate its not the one i was thinking of, i was just saying as if it was its the most ultimately ragged ped on the planet, been rebuilt about 10 times, overheated about 3 times, runs like shit, looks like shit, and i dont like the rider hes a cock :p

    My only gripe with scooters are that if they are cheap enough and aren't crashed bent etc, does it really matter if it's led a hard life if you plan to seriously tune it? I mean if you get a big bore kit, a new crank, variator, clutch etc aren't you really making a new scooter ? ? ?

    Well yeah totally agree I'd be wary of a bike that has been thrashed, but if the engine was seized solid due to poor maintainence for example and the bike was cheap then it's easy to make a killing :D
