Hi everyone. Not been on here for years! As the title states I am putting my 748r up for sale. Y2k with 11200 miles. I have owned her for 9 years now and I never get to use her which I consider to be a waste. Just thought I would see if there is any interest on here before going down the usual route. She is ready for belts and fluids so for that reason I'm asking for £9k. I can elaborate if there is interest or pm me. I'm in Nottinghamshire . Cheers guys Steve
That is a good price and beautiful bike. My advice to anyone is if you don't have to sell a 748 or 916 , don't. Soon they will go up again when the economy improves after the scamdemic wrecked it....
Thanks Stingy. I would love to hold on to her. I get goosebumps every time I uncover her, it's just that I can't justify the maintenance costs for the little she is used and we all know they don't like being stood for too long. Thought it would generate more interest tbh!
I agree Paul, is it Pierobon? i cant quite see the sticker. Lovely bike by the way and priced well. Shouldnt hang around for long
I didn’t click disagree and run cos I think it’s mean, but I wanted to say instead that I disagree. Because, the economy is in the toilet right now but the effects have not fully taken hold yet. I’m expecting asset price deflation to become obvious in the next 3-6 months. Look at the bikes and cars that are not shifting, and house prices decreasing- even though there is a housing shortage. So, if you have a bike or car you don’t need, my advice is to shift it now, before prices hit the floor (remember what happened 2008-2010). If you’re a buyer, wait 6 months if you are buying a toy. If you need transport it’s a different story.
2008 was the year money momentarily became worthless. No one really noticed that weekend in September. I did when I was asked to bid on a few billion collateral on the Friday night and was informed on Sunday night I had won the bidding. A few moments later the Lehman bankruptcy was announced. I had bought their bond collateral. The entire world was saved from economic meltdown when the central banks underwrote the financial markets. That crisis took five years to recover from. We are nowhere near that kind of territory now, but we are in for a prolonged period of no growth that mainly relates to the economic damage caused by Covid lockdowns and the colossal amount (£300bn) of debt the government raised that now needs to be repaid. There are plenty of people retiring with a few quid or down-sizing their homes who would gladly scratch a long held itch by putting a Tamburini in the garage. Bit off topic, sorry
