Big Aprilia on the bay

[Brimma]

Not sure if anyone has seen this, but it's currently running at £4500 (3 hours to go)

I'm sure it will go higher nearer the end time

Nice bike but cost a small fortune to keep the bike on the road with high servicing costs.

Johnp I have found the service costs very reasonable even the big service with belt,sliders,guides,4plugs,air filter,oil.and filter,dr,pulley rollers valve service the lot oh and all the other fluids . The shop price for parts is close to 300 notes using all the expensive stuff my dealer will do the lot inc vat .£450 . I can obviously do it even cheaper and use longer lasting parts like iridium plugs and k&n filter which have longer service life ,the same goes for oil ,shop uses silkolene 50 notes you can use Morris/halfords etc fully syn for half the price and just as good .So more to be saved .The only part I can't seam to save money on is the belt all around 100 notes . Tyres however are expensive and I did expect to get greater mileage from them . Fuel economy has been averaging 53mpg . So overall I don't think it's too bad for running costs unless comparing to a Honda c90 lol .

He didn't sell it - he withdrew it.

**This was removed although it met its reserve price previously as my new vehicle purchase fell through, resisted to sell this time, sorry if anyone was inconvenienced**

In other words he wasn't happy with the 'selling' price...............hate it when people do that (he's not on here is he?)

i think it sold, as i saw this a few days ago and the above was on the listing, i think he meant about last time listed, his wording was arry and was supposed to say

**This was removed although it met its reserve price previously, as my new vehicle purchase fell through, relisted to sell this time, sorry if anyone was inconvenienced**

If you're right then I bet he would've lost a few potential bidders! What a blunder!
Hey ho! The importance of good grammar!

When i was going to buy one i sked the dealer about service costs and it ran into £600 a time which meant £1200 every year for me which was a bit much.
