Oasis green for sale?

#1 Post by Jadaris » Wed Jul 06, 2011 1:58 pm

Hey there folks,

I'm strongly considering selling my beloved falco and wondered where best to advertise it etc.

I've loved every minute of owning the falco but for various reasons think this has to be done.

Will post details of the bike later but I think there's plenty of info on the site in various places about it.

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Sorry to hear this.

If you're not in a hurry, I'd start with the free sites (gumtree, pistonheads) and internet forums (RS, AF1, Aprilia Performance). If you're looking to change bikes, I'd look for a forum of the bike you fancy and post a p/x add there.

Other than that, ebay, autotrader, mcn.

I hope you don't have to sell your bike but if you do I water in here or other fora where you populate first as people "know" you and even if they don't want it they may recommend it to others. Of course if you just want shut then as said above flea bay / pikey mart and others

Hanna is now talking to me again so I guess her bike is not for sale...

I think we will also have to put up with her sense of geography ...


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
