  1. Aye, bet they sell it tho, especially given the recent news Re: WSBK - What were they new out of interest?
     
  2. They were £30,000 not sure what mines worth now any one hazard a guess it's got 4000 miles and mint
     
  3. I paid 24 new.
     
  4. I had thought £30000 what they worth now then

  5. Last time I insured in the uk (2013), it was covered for 15.
     
  6. So, what's the general consensus on a 400 kmh bike in terms if value?
     
  7. If you are going to use it, its worth the same as a 4000km bike....to you anyway.

  8. Import I guess? If UK I would hazard a guess at £17K. Trouble is if an import it may not have history to prove? It may not anyway? It could have been tracked and body work replaced to sell. If you know it's history and are investing make sure you document for the future with as much proof as possible. I would happily pay £14K for it and credit card it so I guess it's worth £17K. What do you think it is worth, that's the main consideration? :)
     
  9. I bought a 300 miler 1098r last year, hope to get out on it soon :)
     
  10. I can't wait for May June time to get on mine can't wait to hear that sound again missing the fix of the termis and open clutch
     
  11. You fellas are making me want an R again
     
  12. It was this site that forced me to buy one its a real pleasure listening to everyone's stories and experiences I tune in every night it's a real tonic especially over the long winter period so cheers you guys

  13. I'm not planning on using it, more as a long term investment. 400 kmh is like new really. And yes it does have history.
     
  14. So is the price right, have you bought it yet? :) If you don't you will regret it :Wideyed:
     
  15. Not bought it yet, still trying to convince the wife it will be better than investing in a pension.
    Nobody has a crystal ball, but I'm thinking about where a bike with that mileage would be in 5-10 yrs time.
    With previous/early R models now getting stronger I'm thinking long term.
     
  16. Dont know how you can do it. Really just dont get it.

  17. What, not ride it?

    I have 5 bikes out of them I only get to use a Fireblade to commute on into London, the weekends are spent with family or working.

    One day when I grow up I will get time to ride them, until then I want to get a few nice bikes together.

    Does that make sense?
     
  18. Nope. If I cant ride them, I see no point in owning.

    But then I am not a collector of anything and never have been.
