Put my V-Due on eBay on Monday. So far after 24 hrs it's up to £7000, eight more days to go. If it doesn't make the reserve, then at least I'll have a better idea of what people are prepared to pay, but here's hoping. Of course if it does hit the reserve, then will come the realisation that she's actually leaving home.

I'll be one of those sad bstards walking around saying "I had one of those". If I could justify keeping it, I would, but I'm just not using it. It is though a thing of beauty.

Bid is now only £1000 under reserve and there's still a week to go, looks very much like there will be a V-Due sized hole in the garage soon Crying or Very sad

Bidding has now stalled at £9100, £900 under reserve, 40 hours to go. I'm hopeful of a last minute bidding frenzy. Will take it out for a ride tomorrow to get an mot, may be the last time.

Never sold anything on eBay before, so it's all a bit nerve racking.

Bloody hell, you're up early ! Yup, she's definitely going (assuming no time wasters ) I've got a bloke to call about the bike this morning before the auction ends, but his mobile is switched off
