Does anyone live in Bethnal green and wanna come see it with me tonight? I have no idea what I'm doing.
The bike is the write off I was enquiring about. Damage looks very minimal and not structural.
its 2k and usual value for the same bike seems to be around 3.5k which is why I'm keen.
I'm a bit nervous about it though. HPI check says it was declared cat N in april and it has 5 previous owners.

Starts and rides fine apparently. No need for new MOT or V5 as it is a cosmetic write off. just buy and ride as normal. Already asked my insurance about it and they will insure it for the remainder of the policy, until may, for a hundred quid which I think is fine.
