jaycee Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Honda Deauville, bought by me on a whim a few days after this year's event with a plan to do 2024. Another, more exciting, 2-wheeled performance bike related opportunity has arisen, but I need every penny I can get to realise it, so this is up for sale. I'm looking to get my £270 back. Located 20 miles east of Edinburgh, could deliver locally, or possibly meet someone halfway. Edited November 6, 2021 by jaycee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebeast Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 Does it come with the stabiliser wheels just in the background? If I was a LOT closer and had enough space I could have been interested, but I am sure someone else will buy the ultra comfy frugal LDU stunner... Fit twin Supertrapps to one and it sounds a LOT more sporty,, 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaycee Posted November 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 How far away are you? I've got a guy asking me questions about it right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebeast Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) I can't mate anyway,got no space at all.. I am Plymouth, 😏, just get someone on it quick and you have your wedge 👍 As for questions on them, so long as the shaft drive is still OK, the rest of it will work fine and dandy normally.. Hammer isn't normally needed on these 😁 Edited November 5, 2021 by firebeast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr V. Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 My mate Paul, thrashed the living beJesus ran an NTV (unfaired) version he bought from @IforB this year, the bloody thing ran like a Swiss watch and never touched a drop of oil. Perfect LDU fodder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect LDU fodder The ntv crash a lot better than the heavier deauville as well🤣 wouldn't be as comfy on ldu, but handle better due to weighing(comparatively) a lot less.... Set of bt45s and leave lots for dead when wet/cold.. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will divide opinion. Some will love it, some will hate it, other will be overcome with "meh". I am very much in the love it camp. It was literally a childhood poster bike for me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWTH Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) I’ve been having thoughts over this thing, the plastics need repair so it’ll probably need paint at some stage. And I have a mate who works in an automotive paint supplier, as well as being able to paint stuff. Maybe Rothmans colours? Or dog cock pink with lashings of fake carbon fibre wrap? This could get very silly... Edited November 5, 2021 by SWTH 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long as you love it , fuk what anyone else thinks, if it makes you smile, 👍 Said it earlier, but my ntv's,( not the Deauville as rode them but never owned) , did such a great job at cheap fast commuting, as well as embarrassing quite a bit of 'proper' bikes at times, I always have a soft spot for them.. Sad, but true.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
