Honda-SOHC

Thanks again for the advice, it was a k7 quite rough but a nice running project, I did post it in the new members area. We agreed on a sale of £750.00 which I thought was too cheap at the time tbh (just thought i had been lucky, obv a few chats his end at the pub may have resulted in him realising it was worth more maybe?).

What do you think, is £750.00 for this bike cheap? Could anyone point me in the right direction as to what I should expect to pay for something similar next time? I have my heart set on one of these.

p.s. Thankfully I've now go my deposit back 

Hi,

Hoping someone might offer me some advice on a tricky sale situation that has currently left me very out of pocket.

3 weeks ago I brought a cb750 via Biketrader from a private seller which I was very excited about. I paid a £250.00 cash deposit, we both signed an agreement (included signatures, total cost and total paid at the time, sold as seen etc etc). I also filled out the v5 and was given by the seller the new keepers slip. He also gave me all documentation like previous receipts, tax, old mot's etc. I also have text messages confirming all of this, my girl friend also witnessed the sale.

I agreed with the guy a courier would pick the bike up in 3 weeks time (which would have been today) and the rest of the cash would be paid on collection. Yesterday he called me telling me he would no longer sell me the bike 1 day before. I have had to let the currier down at short notice which was embarrassing. He has offered to give me my deposit back if he can come to my address and pick up the documents (which I am not keen on him visiting my house).

Not sure about my rights here? can anyone offer any help?

Hi Guys,

Looking for a bit of advice, I'm getting my frame powder coated. There seems to be lots of companies locally that offer this service (Huddersfield), is there anything such as a priming process etc I should ask about to get the best finish/anti rust coating? Or is powder coating simply just powder coating?

Hi Guys new to the forum thought I would introduce myself, I brought a CB750 K7 recently it needs a little tlc but she starts and runs great. I got the guy to throw in a spare 750 engine which should come in handy.

Also if anyone is interested I also have a few bits for sale in the classified area (wasn't sure if I was aloud to list them here)

Cheers,

Luke
