Can anyone give me a lift to Norwich? So I can collect my new K8?

No urgency (ie weekend or next week sometime?) … Just needs to a suitable time for everyone :smiley:

Woohoo you bought it then:D good man;)

Yup, all excited! :w00t:

Just need to get to bike (and of course inspect/test ride it) :wink:

What swayed you against the K7? I take it then you would require the person to wait whilst you test ride just to make sure you’re not stranded in Norwich? Where do you live too as I assume you need a pick up?

I doubt there’d be any problems with bike, as it still has 6 months warranty & looks perfect. I’ve checked all documents and unless bike doesn’t start, then I’ll be riding it home! So once I’ve started bike, your welcome to leave.

I’m in Gravesend, but always get public transport to somewhere more convenient , ie London, etc.

The K7 had 8400 miles, no alarm, no warranty, due for tax & mot … and was located past Newcastle (7+ hrs drive?).

I can get after market parts cheep enough, like exhaust for £250, etc

how long is the drive from london to norwich ?

I’m in Dartford, but not sure if I can get the time off work to cover this, will have a look a bit later for you. :slight_smile:

Could be wrong, but believe it’s 2hrs (100miles)?

wanna go now ?

Not in a rush and doesn’t have to be today … over weekend, or next week, etc is fine. Just need to be sure seller is home. :smiley:

I might be able to help you out next week if you’ve not got a lift by then. :slight_smile:

Where can you pick up a full exhaust system that price? I want a loud system for my bike but everything is atleast 300+

norwich shouldn’t take 2 hours, you might get caught in traffic from elverden to thetford area. When you come back from norwich come off at Attleborough and head towards watton on the B1077 its easy t0 find from attleborough, then once you come to watton centre get on the A1075 towards thetford.

Its a great little route i took the LB lot there a few weeks ago.
It will put a smile on your face for the rest on the journey, couple of great roads, here is the google maps link.

Have fun

I would offer to take you up there but you would have to go pillion!!!:smiley:

Dude why not get the train from Liverpool Street Station - direct with no changes and about £14 for a single after 10am?? Obviously not as much fun riding back with someone else though:D

hey. I got older shape r6, 2005, I got a Viper full size can from a shop on ebay for 200 odd squid. They sent the wrong link pipe even, but quickly replaced it :slight_smile: Here they are, this is the can i have, try them http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YZF-R6-03MY-05MY-03-05-Viper-Carb-Oval-Can-Cap-Road_W0QQitemZ140315899940QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Motorcycle_Parts?hash=item20ab7ab824

Its a nice sound, quite meaty even for a 600 jap :slight_smile: Happy to sound it out for ya next Wednesday maybe!

B.

Simple answer … Never even thought about it! :wink:

Don’t often do public transport, hence the reason it never occurred to me. :cool:

Thanks for the info, now I have an option! :smiley:

Thanks … could be a plan! :smiley:

I’ll PM you Monday.

I found a jardine gp1 exhaust for about that price. Though I believe these are LOUD! Which is what I am after. Most other quieter exhaust are £300+ … Can try locate link for you.

Don’t know if it’ll fit on the K8 thou, but a hammer might do the trick :smiley:

I generally get trains/planes to collect stuff, far easier that way!! I’m off to Huddersfield by train tomorrow to collect a car, laptop/tea/toilets/sleep, get to your destination all refreshed ready for the journey home :D:D

yeah go by train m8, its easier.

if you dont and get stuck let me know maybe we can sort something out in use your car, you drive there and if bikes is cool etc i’ll drive car back or ride bike back for ya, lol.
