A few pointers before i stick it on eBay

If I put the bike on eBay will our Euro zone friends see it?
Would I be right in thinking taking PayPal is a bad idea?


Im was thinking a auction with a 4K reserve and a 5K plus buy it now.

Thanks

Ebay.fr is little used and not much respected in France, even though it is has much better funtionality and features than leboncoin. Leboncoin is France's version of Craig's List and everyone uses it. However there are a number of tricks and knacks to using it. I can help you with those if you choose to advertise in France - just send me a PM.

Told you so Ian, Dave's a top bloke! (thumbs)

On the last day of a double-bubble HISS I don't think I'm capable of thought at all! :woohoo:

What weight/spring rate did you specify to hyperpro for the suspension please?

I didn't, Just let Bas work his magic! he set it up for fast trails and rough roads.

I assume then that he set it up for your weight. Without getting too personal what weight/size are you. I am quite a big guy and need suspension to suit me and luggage while on a trip.

I'm not a 'big guy' about 11 stone but the beauty of the suspension is it can be adjusted for different loads as it has Hydraulic pre load adjustment on the rear and progressive springs with rebound and compression ajustment on the front.

I good suspension man could service and set it up to suit

It'd require a heavier spring for anyone of more..manly stature. not expensive and easy to sort
