Hi Nigelmort,

Firstly a big Hot Adelaide welcome to the ODK Forums.

This was the one on Gumtree for around $600 and then suddenly dropped to about $300, am I correct ?

I'm not trying to burst your bubble but this one has suffered rail failure and had a piece of flat plate welded between the rails underneath the engine as a quick fix.

What I would like you to do is to run a straight edge along the rails and tell me if the rear rail has sag in the middle of it. If it does then repairs must be done to save it. While you're at it check the front rail as well.

Sadly the 20 inch twin rail machine suffers from this scenario the worst as there is just too much flexible metal on hand in the rails.

Look forward to hearing back soon.

Cheers,
BB.
