selling bikes is tough when you need that profit margin! _________________ Pomps

Pompey, they don't need that profit margin, they just want that profit margin
It was nice to finely meet you by the way. Hope to see you again now the nice weather is nearly here.
Jbb, no not sorted yet, I was going to rip it apart (again) tomorrow depending how busy my night shift is tonight
Would you know if there is a filter in the tank |

Keith,
They were asking £5995 for it originally and twice, it finished at a shade over £4000 on egay with the reserve not met
So..... reserve between £4500 and £6000
My guess would be about £5500 which, of course, it ain't worth.
No doubt, eventually, they will find some mug to buy it at their price. |

Hi
In some ways yes. A while back there was a crashed one cheap which I was tempted with. But by the time I decided to go for it someone else had bought it. In some ways a tatty one to play with for top speed runs would be better (as then I wouldn't have qualms about modifying it).
But there are lots of bikes I fancy (Tesi 1D ES, Vdue, YB7, YB4IE, SB6/R) and next to no space left to store them or money to buy them.
Prices of bikes do seem to have ramped up over the last year or so. That SB6 would have been up for about £3500 2 years ago, yet over £5k wouldn't surprise me now (SB6Rs appear to have jumped from about £4k to £6k).
All the best
