Hi guys, so i haven't passed my test yet, I have my MOD1 tomorrow (Monday 9th April).
I saw an MT07 on eBay, not far from me and i loved it straight away, it was one of the cheapest I'd seen, 2014 model, included 2 year warranty, 12,000 miles, tail tidy, crash bungs, little bits of red accessories that just made the bike stand out. I walked away from the dealer after i'd told him i'll wait and see till Monday and see if i pass or not, as I'm more confident about my MOD2 than my MOD1. He had already told me that their were 2 other people interested in the bike that are coming to view it after me. Could be the oldest trick in the book, but 4 salesman said the same thing to me, as they knew i was very interested. After a 40 minute drive home I was deciding wether to put a deposit or not, I got home and thought sod it, so i phoned him up and put a deposit on it, they had tried to ring one of the other buyers a few times, but as he wasn't answering, I got their first.
Must admit i'm absolutely chuffed. He said he could keep it in their storage until i'm wanting the bike and i pass my test, but i may have him bring it over next weekend, just so i can practice a bit of clutch control, getting used to the weight of it etc in my garden lol. Sorry for the long post, I'm quite excited, it's been my dream bike for a long time, I can't believe i officially own one. I'll try add some pics but I'm not 100% sure how to do it. Cheers guys, hope i see you out their soon
