oh! congrats mate, i shall be following your steps in a few month's time too :) How much did u secure it for?

Obvious things i can think of are getting a HPI check regardless of what the ad says, and general ride i suppose. See if there's anything wrong with the balance, startup, clutch engaging, oil level, any rust, suspension, documents + v5, etc.

Good luck and hope it turns out to be a great one for u.

I'm jealous - just paid £3250 for my black 400 K8 with 10,150 miles and 2 previous owners, I bought it from C.J. BALL in Norwich, it has knuckle guards and pillion backrest and has been dealer serviced throughout its life.

I was all confused for a minute. Steve's post was 2 n 1/2 years ago.
I don't think he had the Burgman that long,, I can't remember him on it ??
