Something amiss?

Got this in me saved searches from ebay and I wondered if anyone else thinks this looks er a little bent at the back or is this normal?

Seeing this I thought to check the level on my frame, thankfully its OK and doesn't look like the launchramp off an aircraft carrier ^^

Not being funny, wouldn't it take a lot of power to bend a Lammy frame? Unless its had serious rust problems or been cut n shut O.o

Valid point Ian, but I would not buy it and take a chance. It's a minefield.

I have seen some of the Vietnam "Vespas of doom" and some of the horrendous bodges, I am surprised that the DoT didn't ban vehicle imports from that part of the world and several dealers got stung with 'em too.

I don't like the idea of my body being lined up for 'cemetery' ;)
