Y reg 2001 Red Falco-no longer for sale-close thread, thanks

Hi there
I've owned this for over three years now but due to buying a house and moving - finances sort of forcing sale BUT not desperately.
I'd like it to go to a good home - it's not for sale on ebay or anywhere else at all.
It's Y reg, 2001 with just over 18k on the clock. Looks gorgeous and goes just as well. Has had very little use in general especially last 6/7months because of the new house purchase and all that goes with that.
March this year it had a brand new MOT and a service including back pads and new front tyre. Tax also to March next year. The service was done by Southern Cross Motorcycles and I'm sure most of you will know who they are. Last year it had a FULL service by Southern Cross.
Viewing - absolutely any time (well, evening really as I work till 6pm) - am in NW London.
The only bad bit - had a puncture (rear) 3 weeks ago riding "the roundabouts" near Ace Cafe. I have repaired it and it seems ok BUT I would put a new tyre on. I don't want to spend any extra money because of current finances but would suggest it gets done.

Anything else - just ask.

And - one last thing: because I know what this bike is like, if in January the buyer wants to sell the bike back to me - I will buy it back and pay the same price, no questions asked (of course, bike being same condition as it is now)
Pics - to follow. Just wanted to put this one today (while supposedly working).

I hope I've followed the T's & C's - as I have to admit, I did not read them :smt002

P.S.
Could do with a quick guide on putting pics on - if anyone has the time to - thanks

I know Dalemac was after one at about that price ..... I'll see if I can flush him out (BTW I'm not talking colonic irrigation here).

Any pics yet?

I can email pics and I'll also try and put them on - once I've had a look at the link you sent...

I'm not going to assume anything at all - if he's a really good friend of yours...

No probs with the ad, RF :)
The 'printroom' wont allow direct linking to pics as in copying the url for the image itself, hence why it wont display (just tried it)

Sounds like a good bike at a good price! Hope you manage to sell it!

there's been some interest - so will wait and see...

will continue to be a member even though I might be "bikeless" for a while...

I also understand that donations to keep the site going are needed and will be doing so in the not so distant future

thanks Dalemac
I would need 1k at least - got some bills I need to sort out by the end of this month unfortunately... the rest - I could wait a few weeks. As I've said I'm not totally desperate to sell but I just hate being close to the limit on the finances...

the reason I prefer not to do ebay is the timewasting (but may have to do it anyway) and here it's different - anyone with a Falco will be genuine and honest :smt002

P.S.
that would mean you can take the bike away and pay the remainder after - as I just haven't had the time to use the bike at all... that is, if D-Rider's
willing to vouch for you :smt001
