READ THE REVIEWS FIRST! Travelled 2 hours to look at a 2015 KTM FREEEIDE as it was described as mechanically perfect and any issues would be fixed as this is a "proper garage". On arrival i was shocked to meet the owner who had to drag the bike out of the back of the unit to find out that it would not even start because apparently it has been stood for months and the front right fork seal was dripping oil like the niagra falls. After settling on a deal that the fork seals will be replaced before delivery i left a £95 deposit (for some reason?). I received a call today saying the bike will be delivered tomorrow and he wanted the remaining funds i asked have the fork seals been replaced, he told me "its been cleaned there is nothing wrong with it! (not mentioning the dripping oil for months that is soaked into the concrete floor other than the fork leg), he also told me "If they go when you use it then i will post some seals to you!" (nothing was offered for the labour cost to install them, he must usually fit them with a magic wand). I refused to pay the balance and stated i do not want the bike unless the seals have been replaced as agreed. I was told "if i dont buy the bike i won't be getting my deposit back! After going round and round in the conversation he said "how do you not get this? Are you THICK?!. I decided i would rather lose the £95 than to spend £4500 on a nail. Go to Rocket bike centre, Craigs motorcycles or any other reputable company if you want a mechanically sound bike and not to experience what i have. Read the other reviews below (I wish i did first), I didnt think they were real but now i know they obviously are.
