Where do i find my sweet heart?

[Ali_G]

Hi Peeps, Where's the best place to look for a second hand 750 ss, lowish miles, '99 or newer for about £3-4k i look in the auto trader but they always seem to have the same 3 bikes. Is this going to be a long search??? Any advice will be most welcome. TIA

You might need to expand the search in Autotrader to a wider area to find your baby - perhaps even national to get the one you want....here is a list of other contacts.....

Cheers Frank, some of those links looked pretty good. Not sure i'd wanna buy a bike off e bay though. That yellow one looked nice, apart from the colour. It's going to be a ducati, so for me, it's gotta be red :devil:

Depends whereabouts you are(?) but www.cmwmotorcycles.com has a couple of Sports or SuperSports in at the mo!

Cheers, i'm not too far away (farnborough, hants) but sadly, i'm still at the dreaming stage. I got the dosh together but there's one small fact that i haven't passed my test yet :( though i do have my thoery test book for this friday and will do an intensive course asap.

[Iconic944ss]

Ahhh, I wondered why a 900 was not on the menu ???

Time for a supermono then :devil:

[Ali_G]

One step closer........

I paassed my theory test on Friday and just booked up my Direct Access course plus test etc :) not until the end of june and i can't wait :sing:

[psychlist]

Well done on the theory test, first step done. Hope all goes well with the DAS, heard it can be quite daunting! S'pose it depends on the instructor. let us know how you get on and which bike you go for after ;)

Could also try www.motosale.com (http://www.motosale.com/default.asp), but there's only one 750ss on there right now. Updated daily, so you never know....
