guy is convinced that cos he has a bolt on conversion he can run it on the road as it is, he mot'd it as a bike and seems to think it can just be left as a bike with the dvla still listing it as a bike, and used as a trike on the rd cos its a bolt on kit. i sent him a question but he hasnt replied or posted it to his listing, and some sad buggers are actually bidding on it, if only it were that easy eh!!

he recons he has been using it, but his feedback says he only bought it less than a month ago as a solo bike!

he is also selling a very hooky harley that seems to have been used to ring another bike, no reg or docs, he says he built a chop with the numbers, but why not use the engine etc, very very dodgy imho.

'Private listing'.

Says it all. No doubt half the bids are this character ramping the price up.

if you try to MSVA the bike, that looks to me like a sportster complete with the headstock cut off and pidgioned back on, the engine numbers will tie it to the other headstock, and they will end up with an invitation for an inspection etc.

The trike just looks plain wrong. So not only has he been using it with out changing class on log book an easy process, he wont have bene insured.

Muppet.

Also, the auction ended 9th Oct at £870. (He paid £725 for the bike).

So how come this feedback for 699mikey99, the lucky buyer?
Nice guy, quick payment, enjoy your Trike, many thanks pro-audiogear ( 986) 29-Sep-11 16:30-- Private

ive a feeling he is buying bikes and mot'ing em, then putting bolt on back ends on and punting them out with the same bullshit that they are legit, and folk are falling for it. funny he lists that trike sale as a private listing once its over so no future potential buyer can see what he has been doing.

all his listings have now gone
