Yep he is a crook. He was recently trying to sell his business I think, saw it on Ebay. I think he also trades under "oldskoolparts" he tried to sell me an IT465 that turned out to be a lemon. Unfortunately a fellow IT forum member got stung with the bike and shipping to WA. I kept some of his pictures just for a laugh.
Let's face it some dirt bikes were never meant to be ridden.

Both of those ebay names are from the uk. Is that the guy? Both accounts are no longer running either.

I bought a 77 cr125 from him [in melbourne] 12 months ago. I am very happy with it, great price, great to deal with and the freight he organized to south australia thru du-pont transport was cheap with great service to. If you can get someone to look at the bike it maybe worth wile.
Cheers Troy

I've not had any issues with Max whatsoever.
