850 quid with no mot, good deal or skip?
https://www.gumtree.com/p/kawasaki-moto ... 1173932633 Here it is, was wondering if it's worth having a look? What could possibly be wrong with this bike and how much would it cost me to get it into shape? The owner doesn't seem to list any problems

Re: 850 quid with no mot, good deal or skip?
looks ok to me, just check ove the usual things, fire it up, give it a bit of a rev, see how it sounds...but £850 is a decent price, its cosmetically tatty, but i dont know what you are after or if that bothers you that much?
remember, its a 19 year old bike, it will have 19 year old brakes/suspension/electrics/problems...its not a 2016 bike with FI/abs/tc/warranty...

Yeah don't worry the 19 year old bike thing has been hammered in my head already, still want it though, don't really care how much the maintenance will cost
