Bike And Equipment

[Apllo13 1]

Hi Guys,

 

Apologies if I have place this in the wrong place? I’m hoping for a bit of advice here as I’m quite out of date.

 

Within the next couple of months I would like to buy a bike. At the moment I have it in my head I will spend about £1000 for a bike and hoping I would get some spares included. Is this realistic sum or am I completely off track?

 

Where’s the best place to look for a second hand bike? Is it just a case of keeping an eye open on various track days?

 

I have seen this one “Item number: 270995609286” on eBay. Looks like just what I’m after but not sure if it’s a good price?

 

I would like something with a laydown engine instead of what I previously used or will that be out of my budget?

 

Are Weslake engined bike’s still used on the training tracks?

 

Here’s a funny question for you. I see riders using Kevlar’s and body armour now; does this mean no one use’s leather’s anymore?

 

I know some of these questions are like asking “how long is a piece of string” so any advice would be great just to get me thinking in the right direction.

 

What I don’t want to hear is “Your too old don’t bother” I’m sensitive you will hurt my feeling.

 

 

Thanks
