Really good 950 SMRs are nearly fetching that much. In KTM circles the old carbed LC8 is acquiring classic status. Owners generally loved them so much they don't part with them and ride them til they drop so there aren't that many good ones left. Perhaps it was a crashed one.
Yeah - 6 owners and cat C or D but now it's in a 60's BSA frame it's on an age related plate so not really an issue

Kawasaki ZX10R, Race Bike – TT/BSB Superstock | eBay Proper track bike Know the rider, excellently maintained and bloody fast!
The cleanest part of the bike is where the engine number has recently been filed off. :Wideyed: There's plenty of bodge around the frame number too. :Nailbiting: Well dodgy.
I'm suspecting someone bought without really knowing what they were buying. Otherwise, why would you?! But then you see loads of cat B bikes on trackday addicts FB page, and yet they should have been crushed and cannot be sold to be put back together. Every time I see one, smacks of bike nicked and bits swapped and sold.

I like this and not an unrealistic price from a dealer. Ducati 996. 2002. Very Low Mileage. Absolutely Stunning. FSH | eBay Andy
I agree Andy. A few quid more than you would have bought it for 5 years ago. But in these days of heady SPS and R money, it would be a nice retro bike to have for sunny days without the eye watering price tag.
