I've been talking about doing this for years, but finally I've put my beloved Sportster up for sale. Not sure if it'll reach reserve, but time will tell. ...
Hi Hope you get what you want for it. When I asked about a part-ex on mine at Silverstone H-D they offered £2600 against a FatBob. Needless to say I still...
Well, the reserve is quite a bit lower than the b-i-n, but you're right about the trade in values; HD dealers are the worst (IMO) for saying you'll get your...
i had a 883 full service history at same dealer wanted to trade in for 1200 sporty got offered 1800 quid probably becuase i actually used it and put some miles...
Yep,seems to be the same problem we all have...."we use them!" Ain't it always the way with 'main dealers' though,take your money then continue to rip you off...
Looks like my Sportster's sold. As expected the first person that actually came to see it, rather than going purely on the description, put their hand in their...
Sniffle sniffle…… Try this guy: EBay item 280205040775 This may not be the model you’re looking for but I’m sure it will be there in his stock list....
I'd recommend www.brakes4u.co.uk ...they sell EBC parts and under US MADE MOTORCYCLES you will find all HD pads at half the stealer prices. Gordan 'Ballistic'...

Without wanting to start an oil thread (first one to say bearing skate gets a red card!), I'd be interested too. I'll start by saying that from my experience,...
That looks good, thanks Gordan. I'll have to wait until I get home and look in the parts book though as I was pretty sure that the rear brake was the same as...
I found them as good as the HD ones I had in before. The HD pads on the back failed me when the pad parted company from the backing material, so I don’t rate...
About four years ago I bought a batch of 20/50 from a bloke who came to Sheep-on-a-stick. One oil change a year, and it's kept Angel happy since. I've got...

Off topic but I'm hoping someone might be able to help My son is coming up to 16 and is talking about getting a moped. Oh my god> Does anyone know how mopeds...
Hey Andy, As a 16 year old, he needs to do a CBT first and then he may only ride a 50cc scooter and up to 125cc when 17. He needs to get a provisional license...
my son had a suzuki moped it was restricted too 30 mph in my opinion that put him in mortal danger in modern trafic bikers stay safe by keeping out off the...
The rules for mopeds have changed over the years, but the rules that applied at time of manufacture hold true today, ie ones made after 1 August 77 are...
Sorry to hear the deal fell through. How about alternative selling methods? Ebay can be great, but you've got a specialist machine. Maybe a longer term advert...
Seems like he'd interpreted "if that's what you really want to do" to mean "do what you really want to do". Ah well, I'm still here :-) The Fantic chopper is...
It's not your average moped, I grant you, but they are great fun (if a little slow) and offer excellent weather protection and luggage space. And no helmet...
I have a photo somewhere of a fantic 50 not my old one though - that went down the great highway many years ago - first bike I ever got caught on! So obviosly...
fs1-es are cool but a good one will cost you more than a nice sportster due to mr 40 something and his bizarre sense of nostalgia,,i was thinking of getting...
