Description

Gilera Runner VX 125I unfortunately crashed this bike on my way to work about a month ago. It was rush hour and I was riding too close to a white van infront of me when a driver infront of him slammed on the brakes and I went into the back of the van. The wheel went under the van and the frront panels and headlight too the brunt of the impact. The bike started fine after the crash and was then kept on the street outside my house for about a week. I decided to move it inside after a thief had kindly taken my back passenger handles and one mirror. I then tried to start the bike and it just ticked over but didn't start. I called the mechanic I normally go to and he said someone had probably stolen the starter box from the front of the bike which would explain why it ticks over but doesn't start BUT today while doing a bit of video for ebay my dad had a go and it started! Video is here plus some general video of the bike -  https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=qyvyPw4nJhY&feature=youtu. beWe let it run for a few minutes and turned it off and back on again and it just ticked over again like before. We don't really have a lot of mechanical knowledge so can't really offer more insight into whats wrong with it. The mechanic did say that the forks will most likely be bent. I cant tell by looking at them and there aren't any oil leaks. I did ride the bike after the crash and it felt fine but it should be looked at by a mechanic before being put back on the road. More info: 12000 miles on the clock Parts stolen - both back handlebars and one mirror. One light in the headlight works so the electrics should be ok. The front left indicator doesn't work due to crash. New back tyre about 600 miles ago. Few spare parts - the big part on the right (see pic) is for the under carriage of the front wheel. The one on the bike was broken in the crash and that spare is brand new. Top box mount was broken in the crash as when I stopped I dropped the bike; It snapped of the mount. The top box is fine but will need a new mount. If you don't want the top box on the bike I still have the panel that hides the fixtures - see spares pic. Original manual included. The bike has got MOTS back to 2010 and V5 present in my name. I have one key for the bike. MOT and tax valid till March 2015. No buy it now prices - I don't know what it is worth. The bike will be sold to the highest bidder. I'd strongly advise coming to have a look at it before purchase. Cash on collection only. Viewings welcome around 5. 30pm to 10pm.
