Hi, new here want to buy a gilera runner you thinks its worth the price if not tell me how much is it worth in your opinion. chers alot http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/gilera-runner-70cc/1031456259
its obviously been tweeked and modified (renthal bars make it easy to wheelie) i would stay away its best part of a grand owned by some chav who may or may not have looked after his race scooter what are 05 year runners going for?
Welcome and...................I quote: Could do with a fresh set of panels, new brake levers and a new spring for the centre stand. Also needs a battery for the remote start to work. The owner has spent all that money on all those bits, but cant be arsed to replace the battery, the brake levers or the stand spring. The cheapest parts on the bike. And the panels need attention. Leave it.
It's been thrashed to within an inch of it's life and Barried too, hence the 'shopping list'; avoid it.
Thanks for all replies, yh i thought about it and what you all said so wont even think about this bike, will look for something better. chers alot.
Take your time mate, Beware of mates opinions, Read through a few reviews, Ask around - questiins aplenty, Good luck getting one rolling. .
Whats do u guys think about that one, price 600 is it worth it ? http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/gilera-runner-70cc/1031746488
looks a bit better but pictures can lie go have a good look make sure all details match, common sense really buddy if its too good to be true it probably is
Runners are excellent peds but as all these are saying watch out for the ones that have been killed. as im 17 myself and me and all my friends are into scooter tuning i know exactly what dodgy crap you can come across, stay away from anything thats ALREADY tuned to death. if you want it tuning then you buy a standard ped and do the tuning yourself. and condition of plastics are very important as to repair/replace or spray them costs alot of money! minors like battery/stand are all things that do wear over time and you will find are often broken or need replacing on a lot of peds, so thats nothing to bad aslong as the mechanics of the bike are in decent condition engine wise an things then little things like that can easily be sorted. But for a decent runner your going to be paying 1000+ and for that you want to look for a fairly new model and one that is pretty much standard
Yh thanks for the comments, i will go have a look at it tomorow "stay away from anything thats ALREADY tuned to death" Yh that one aint that tuned only carb, bore rollers and exhaust, but i will have a look at it tomorow and see if it worth the price
Take another rider/or with you, Either someone who's really clued up on the scene, Or just really big,don't talk much....maybe just growls occasionally!. .
Ye upjetted, bore kit, race pipe, rollers, clutch springs (Tuned to death by an amateur) I honestly would not go near it. an it may not seemed tuned to death but thats the basic tuning that every 16 year old knows!
