Good luck. Have someone looking at my GTS tomorrow. If it sells I'll be buying the one in Leeds... ;)

Sarge: Nice, I doubt I'll turn down the yellow one so if the Leeds one is available go for it :D

The one in Durham, they won't go lower than £5300

Maxiscoot nz: I really doubt the pump has been changed at such low mileage so I'll likely have another pump change to do in a couple of years :D

The scoot has only done just over 3000 miles and has had 2 owners both have had it serviced at the dealer that is currently selling it so they have the full history.


The only thing I hate about it, is the top box... its a bodge job Givi not the proper Yamaha one that I still have and will likely use instead.

A question...

1. If the diagnostics are run with the fuel pump still active can that cause any issues? I forgot to disconnect it at first so the pump runs during the test.

Anyway... she looked great and sounds great, couldn't test ride because my back and knee was feeling a bit naff after the long car journey...having re-run the diagnostics after disabling the pump I noticed the fan actuator test failed, the fan did not come on as it should. So before delivery/payment they are investigating and sorting it out.

Salesman seemed very surprised at how thorough I was :D

Scoot was up for £4500 and I negotiated £4200 with delivery and a tank of fuel, its only recently had a service, but it will also be checked over before delivery.

I am quite a happy bunny :D

And me! Sold my GTS this morning. Guy said he wanted to negotiate on price until he viewed it and offered my full asking price! Put a deposit on the Tmax in Leeds and then took a drive up to see if it was as good as he said. Great dealer, very smart showroom with hi-tech workshop. As for the Tmax I was literally gobsmacked. Just over 7000 miles and it looks brand new. One owner who obviously spent a lot of time cleaning. Got a Ermax rear hugger on it and sadly a standard screen so I'll need to order a short dark one.

Pick up in a week and a half..... :) Images to follow....

Having the rear hugger was one of the pluses on that TMax that I liked, sadly both our new TMaxes have full screens but luckily I have about 4 others of varying sizes :D
