Is this worth the money?

Finally ready to take the dive into getting a road legal pitbike, this just popped up on ebay today is it worth what he's asking? As I have no idea haha, or any idea where the best place to look for one is? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Road-legal...item2c8ef40e7e

For £550?... Are you really asking if its reliable....

Not to be funny mate but you really don't want the hassle of one.

Cheap Chinese pit bikes just aren't reliable.

Re: Is this worth the money?

I've got a lovely Kawasaki KSR 110 I've just taxed and tested.

It's very well built and is a great fun thing to whiz around on.

I want a fair bit more than £550 though
