problem is most of you blokes tell the wife to much .. they are clueless and if you tell her no point in selling it its only worth £20 she will have no idea what its realy worth unless you tell her ...
and if any one says you should sell that so we got some extra money then reply ok as long as we sell something of yours to the same value like your washing machine or your ghd streightners they would soon change their mind
edit... if you dont have a shed you aint got a penis thats a fact every man should have a shed by law

Just trying guage what my spare 3ngine could be worth if i sell..
2000 dt125r..complete. new rebore,new piston and rings and small end.1mm oversize.powervalve modded to fit too.
Engine running fine before removal...also includes complete oil seal kit and main bearings, also conrod,big ends etc. Everything needed if u choose to rebuild it.
Was thinking of rebuilding myself, so that its sat here waiting incase any problems with my engine, but wife moaning its in way under dining table lol..
Any ideas on rough guide price if i put on ebay? May put on here first?
Yeah plan is not to mget rid of bike...keeping this one now.but its the boss thats moaning.hahaha
My minds saying once gone that i end up needeing that spare like you say lol.awaiying on flywheel puller to do my left hand seal on current engine, but nowhere i can hide engine.
Trust me nowhere safe!! You obviously are not married! Only possible safe place is attic. dont think she would be happy me up and down through roof,And it's a mare to get too! She would find if left in house tucked away or smell it!!! No room in she'd for storage too!
My bike is currently in my dining room, where it has been getting fixed!! She not happy now as been couple months lol. Hence the little prompts from her. Lol
could always make a little box and store outside in garden..suitably covered etc???
Yeah that was my thought. Or at lwast what i would try and do.
Have you not got A shed?
if you do go down the outstide route Then try and make it air tight. To reduce moisture and stop corrosion. Otherwise you might aa well sell the engine!
hahaha love the last bit... have a shed but full of kids bikes, lawnmower,tools, patio stuff...really no space to tuck away :p
my wife only knows what i tell her...untill bank statement comes through :p
gonna look at getting smallplastic bin type thing for garden and possbly sort something...or stash in attic- but that would mean rebuilding it first so that i dont have to keep going up there!
only bit that worries me is the gears, and splitting the crankcase otherwise i would have done so already and she would be none the wiser!
Hahaha love the banter. Obviously most of you are young singletons with no grasp on married life? You will see when you get older about "manning up"! Lol.
Deciding I may bang it on eBay? Gotta be worth couple hundred easy!

Meh, looking into marriage it seems most men are in controlling relationships, where their wife controls them and dictates what they can and can't buy. I'd rather be single.
I don't plan kids anyway, so no need for me to be married.

not young or single lol Im late 30.s with the wife and two kids around the same age of some on here . but have spent those years training the wife and builing two great brick sheds built the last one and put upvc patio doors and windows at the front and said here ya go love built ya a summer house and she fell for it even helping out ... she used it for about a month in summer then over the winter motorcycles and parts slowly moved in .
Hahaha good skills. Mine is trained hence rebuilding in dining room but I can only push her soo much before she withholds the bedroom antics lol
Buy another motorbike when she witholds the bedroom antics, that'll show her! "Well, I can't get my end away, so got a motorbike to make me happy!"
our lass once got funny and moining about the bikes in sheds or garden and she said somethings gota go ...I went in the loft and got her the big suitcase and placed it at the front door with out saying a word ... not had a problem since

(late 30's,been together 5 years,she's late 20's) so i can really push it.... trousers...CHECK....knackees...CHECK
yeah thing is with women you have to start as you mean to go on witht he relationship .
if you let her say what where and when at the start she will do so for ever . I hate see blokes who can not take the bike out with out the wifes say so and even when out they ring every 10 mins
