July 7, 200818 yr I saw that liting today. The seller clearly states - It is not restored, it is not nearly new and it is not just in immaculate condition. It is 100% brand new. He then goes on to list all the faults with the bike !! Definition new (NOT USED) Show phonetics adjective not previously used or owned: Used car sales have risen because of the increased cost of new cars. Did you buy your bike new or second-hand? See also brand new. (from Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary) How can a bike be owned by someone else for 29 years and still be 'NEW'. It is not new - just unused. Yes it's extremely rare to find a bike so old unused and would be fantastic to wheel straight into a museum. I don't think it should ever be used now.
July 7, 200818 yr I think by "new" they mean "unused" not as in "showroom condition". Plus it's ebay, so I'm just surprised when any words are spelled correctly let alone used correctly.
July 9, 200818 yr A grand Steve? If you have that sort of money to trhow around I will sell you my 240 and buy you all new Hebo clothing and boots to match! You will need a spare bike if you're going back to Robregordo....
