Nope,3 days later the police couldn't get in contact and the address where he was supposed to be living was vacant.Unfortunately after consultation with my doctor,my neck/spine situation is never going to change,takes me around 1-2 hours a night to get comfortable,can't lay on my right shoulder before being in pain,can't look up for more than 5 mins tops.....Just another day in life,doesn't worry me though,since the accident[November 2013] i've racked up 33,000km's on the bike. |

QUOTE (Dai. @ Jul 18 2015, 05:48 PM) Does anyone use Gumtree much?. First time listing one of my motorcycles for sale and abit cautious about some guy wanting to buy it from Melbourne,willing to get a mobile mechanic to look over it for him and send the report. Does this sound like a scam or genuine?. I've used gumtree only once to sell. Never fcuking again. Tried selling a plasma telly a while ago. Got sick of bogans ringing me at all fcuking hours with stupid questions like "would ya swap a washing machine for it?" Humanity as a species is fcuking doomed... |

I mean the satnav and car info you can display is good like for fuel, servicing and Bluetooth for calls works fine. it just seems to outdated. Subaru do sell a media hub which replaces the Rca jacks with usb. But at $300+ they can keep that shit. Read it's not that great. Compared to what new headunit can do these days. will prob go for pioneer or kenwood or mini tablet |

QUOTE (Dai. @ Jul 21 2015, 05:50 PM) Another question i need to ask about the bike I'm selling. Old mate down south has purchased the bike,put $100 deposit into my bank and paid for an inspection[$150],he wants me to fill out transferring the rego papers and send them to him,do i need to be concerned? common sense says don't go sending the registration transfer paperwork until all the monies in your account. maybe vk134 or someone else will have a view on the matter and see this post. or you could ask Qld Transport directly the procedure. How do you get a Victorian roadworthy in Queensland anyways? are bikes different? not sure when a Queensland inspection has ever been valid in another state. or is it just being used as an indication of the bikes road-worthiness. QUOTE (Doc @ Jul 21 2015, 08:19 PM) not to sure. I'm sure alpha could help out there. just make sure you keep a copy for yourself i'd have said to ask shuff's, but haven't seen him now in a few weeks.
