Title: Unbelieveable.
Post by: mx250 on July 01, 2009, 11:49:21 pm: The strange going ons of Ebay. You go for months with one or two or three Monty bits been offered and now there are heaps. Would you believe two VB swing arms concurrently - unbelievable. And it been like that for a while. Some good stuff too, useful spares ;).

I think a secret Monty stash or two has been stumbled upon ;D

I've noticed with other models that I look for parts for as well. Even on EbayUSA, one week 10 items and next week 169!!!

Strange indeed :P.

Are you interested Ross? I'm watching. I have a second frame, enduro. I've got some bits that might make the start of a H6. I might bid if the price is low. ( I really didn't want to start another project but being the opportunist I am.............. ::))

Yeah I saw that. It will be interesting to see what price it goes for. I think he would get a better price by separating them, but what would I know ::) :P.

Post by: runutz698 on July 02, 2009, 03:59:11 pm: Hey Guys,

I have a newly powder coated VB swingarm with brand new roller style tens. In the roof of the garage I am not going to be using now. So if any one really wants one it is ready to rock and roll just need bushes.

Cheers
Tom

Post by: runutz698 on July 02, 2009, 04:09:16 pm: I think the guy with the swingarms is the same guy I brought the GP off. Also would anyone be intrested in a VA360?

Title: Re: Unbelieveable.
Post by: All Things 414 on July 02, 2009, 05:05:07 pm: Yes I do need a swing arm. I've bent the VB one and I figure it'd be easier to stick another one on it rather than fix the one I have.
I notice that the pipe that he has doesn't have the baffle in it either. I fixed up the one that came with mine and every second person walks up at a meeting to ask me why I dont have a muffler. 8). Cool! It's actually pretty quiet on the track.[/color]

The only things I am missing are the gards, I am going to have a go at repairing the side covers as they seem to only have small cracks. But if it doesn't work out that well I will def. buy new ones. Thanks for the info.

Post by: 360DUDE on July 03, 2009, 08:13:10 pm: Have you not noticed most parts are from the same dude, Geoff.
He's obviously done with his Monties.
I got My H6 360 from him, then he sold his GP 360 $5 grand that went OS, then his other incomplete GP, His VB360, and now his VA360 and his parts :o
Title: Re: Unbelieveable.
Post by: All Things 414 on July 03, 2009, 08:15:12 pm: I know. He should be taken out and slapped! :o
Title: Re: Unbelieveable.
Post by: runutz698 on July 04, 2009, 10:14:05 am: HE is moving and not intrested in bikes anymore, The story goes someone could of brought his whole collection a few years back for 6Grand. Bet they are kicking themselves now.

I got the GP250 and it is missing a few parts but not a whole heap, my VF250 Was missing more when I got it.

I will post photo's shortly.
