Just a quick "Heads Up"

Post by Dogbad » Thu Sep 23, 2010 3:57 pm

I was in my local bike shop today (Frank Shepherds in Lancaster) and was talking to Dave Shepherd. He's a decent bloke and I've done a bit of business with him in the past with no regrets. We went out back for a smoke and I spotted a nice toy! Yamaha 80 townmate, shaft drive model, that had introduced itself to the side of a car! Needs new forks as they are bent in and the legshields would need either a Big Repair or a replacement. It's on a "C" plate from 1985 and it runs and sounds pretty well.
He hasn't given me a price on it yet but he's open to offers always.
Anybody wants to ring and speak to Dave Shepherd for info' and tell him Steve with the XBR 8-) mentioned it and he will talk happily.
01524 65627 is his number.
I'd be happy to take it and have fun myself but I have Zero Earth Pounds to use!

This one is exceeding £155 at its current bid.
