I have a full cromo 98 performer F&F under the bench, would love to get it powdered, but it'll cost more than I could sell it for.

Mark, I sold a 98 performer f&f last week on the bay which I'd had powdered & brought og decals for....lost about £20. Sold a chrome 2000 & made £35 , not worth touching unless you going to keep it IMO :daumenhoch:

It was £22.04 , I thought fook it, it's Sunday so I gave him £22.50 , I'm good like that :LolLolLolLol:
It's now in bits in the garage ready for the f&f to go back on the bay tomorrow. I've got my eye on something else and another 2 arriving this week so need the space.
Serial number is yc98k01423. Would this make it a 98?

Post by: deeman on November 08, 2011, 11:43 PM: surely any bike bought for a score that rides is a bargain???

Post by: ED209 on November 09, 2011, 06:16 AM: My one cost £50... and I spent 50 on it and sold it for £150! It was brought by 50 Cent's dad for his 50th birthday ( thats not all true )

Rattle can job that... keep the costs down and back on the bay :daumenhoch:
