Looking at a bike tomorrow, the seller has stated in the add that he won it. (Online raffle)
It’s second hand, 2018 with around 5k on the clock,he says he’s only done around 40 miles on it.
Would that tale ring alarm bells with you?

Not if they've got the V5 for it.

Raffles use 2nd hand bikes.
Yes he’s got the V5, and a check shows a change of keeper 6 weeks ago that ties in, I also
assumed that they would only raffle new bikes.

Not a VFR.
