Description

 

The listing is for ‘Yamaha RD 250B Project (BARN FIND!!!)’

RE-LISTED DUE TO TIME WASTER!!! 

Barn find!!! We got it as you see it in the photos. dust and all. We've only touched it to get it going. Starts and turns over with our help and that all we've done to it. As you can see it does need a lot of work done. so please don't bid on this bike if you think you can kick it over once and ride away. This is being sold as spares or repair. There's parts missing as you can see from the photos and you may want to replace what is there to restore it properly e. g. mudguards and seat base due to rust. Matching numbers. check photos. Unsure if the mileage is true because of its age and having no history. Applied for a logbook and it's on its way. if however it's not here by the time you come for collection we will post it on. We also have a new seat cover and one s/h front down pipe to get you started. Not much more we can say on the bike. it is as you see it. a project bike. Please ask questions if you have any. We can take more photos if needed. Bikes like this are harder to come by and your money is far better invested in a classic than a bank. Perfect winter project.  

 

We strongly recommend you view the bike before placing a deposit. If you do wish to view please message or ring us before so we can make sure someone is here to show you the bike. Please be aware we can't hold the bike for viewing. First come. first serve policy. We pride ourselves on being an honest business but it seems there's a few customers out there who like to string us along. Many of time we have had to turn away a genuine paying customer as we have said we'll hold the bike for someone travelling from a far. to only be let down.

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Returns We don't accept returns on any electrical items unless they have been fitted by a trained mechanic at a reputable motorcycle shop. For example your mate a few doors down who has fitted it doesn't count. It must be backed up by a headed receipt to prove it's a legit shop and not just some backyard mechanic who thinks he knows how to repair and fault find problems on bikes. This also goes for engines. if you make a mistake when fitting you could possibly ruin the engine and not even know it before it's too late. Blaming us for a mistake made on your behalf. We can't be responsible for your lack of mechanical knowledge. We test all our parts before listed as they come off running bikes. If you feel comfortable fitted such items then please do buy said items off us. as Im sure there are many bikers that know what they're doing. Its the select few that think they can put in a crankshaft before their homework. We do accept legitimate returns if we believe the fault is on our behalf. please get in contact with us and we'll resolve the problem in the best possible way. We take more photos of our parts to take note of the condition of the item before it leaves our shop. this in some cases is to check false return claims. We are a family run business and hate going down the road of fighting claims or not being contacted before bad feedback is left. it's not what were used to. Please if there is any problem or any questions please contact us before so we can probably fix the problem between customer and seller.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Postage We try and keep the postage cost down as much as we can. but postage prices are always going on. Before you mark us down on postage please take into count the size and weight of the item. Also the fact we have to wrap the parcel. get one of our employees to take it to the post office which costs time and money. We make no money off postage costs and in most case we lose out with the postage fees. If you think the postage might be too much please contact us before buying so we can show you a print out of how much it will cost to send in the stated delivery time. Please just don't give us bad ratings without understanding the full price of sending items. We are happy to combine multiple items to reduce postage costs. Items will be shipped within 1-2 working day from payment. all items are shipped at 1st Class signed delivery up to the weight of 2kg. Because it is a more efficient delivery method. items posted over this weight will be shipped using a 48hr Delivery Service. Collection from our store during opening hours are welcomed (Monday-Saturday 10am-6pm) International and overseas buyers please contact us first for a postage cost.
