So anyone keen?? Look like a whole heap of bitza's to me.

If it went cheaper enough I might be interested but you would never know from the ad if it was worthwhile or a heap of POS's. About the only worthwhile info is that two frames have been two-packed. As to the rest there is neither quality photos nor description to have you bidding with confidence .

I would agree with you, but if it is 500dollars no res. then I would probly bid but I think he thinks it is work heaps even tho he doesn't state going or not etc. I would say it will be like the rickmans one that is on there at the 2500.......it looks like an ugly duckling. LOL oh well I am still waiting for something else good to come up so that I can park a new project in my shed, I seem to be leaning towards bultaco or english bike, May have a lead today on where lies a VF 414 not going so I will check that out first....

If he thinks its worth heaps then he should give the auction half a chance by describing the bikes fully and accurately. And then back it up with some detailed pixies. At the mo he is only gonna attract bargain hunters e.g. me .

I would be interested in a Rickman but I don't think that Rickman is an attractive deal. Even looking at it superficially it needs a lot of work. Again the seller has done himself no favours in the description or the pixies. My bet is that it will get passed in, no takers.

Bullies don't get me too excited but something like this would be nice.



Good luck with the 414 hunt (just keep it quiet from Ross )

This one I have heard about sound like VG from all the stories and aparently it has a dud ignition system which is why it went into the back shed 15years ago...... So may be a goodie I will keep u all posted

Sad news I spoke to the guy in blackburn, he never got the montesa runnning so it sat outside for many a year until one say when they were doing a rubbish run, OH no yep he pulled it appart and threw it away :-(. Now I have questioned him and it was 414 with a yellow tank..........................

:oWhat was he thinking.

I hope yoy told him he probably threw away $5000, and that his soul will burn in hell for ever and ever .
