Bit of a bargain maybe???

[Louise]

Well as a few of you posted in the 'Advise/opinion on this 125' post

Finally She has found one. Right by me, so I can veiw, we have agreed on a price and can collect (If I think everything is in order) On Thursday.

I had trouble finding a 125, but I didnt relise how bloody stressfull it was for someone else.

2003 NSR 125, 11k Miles - 2 owners, last one since 2006 riden in dry weather

£1000

I for once cannot wait to ride a 125 again

Thing is, I need to teach her how to use gears

Should be good - but still, I think a bargain for 2008!!!

Seems like a bargain. Hopefully it's not just about to need a rebuild that's all! But considering the price, you'd still probably be within budget anyway . Glad you finally found one.

Well my SV650 might sell on Sat, bit of a breather but im searching for an R6......... So im looking for myself and the odd 125 for her.
Im truely sick of seeing bikes for sale


I had trouble with HSBC last time getting the 1k out for the bandit, they only allowed me £900 - No so bad, but WTF its my money

So I said place it in my natwest, at least tommorow (Wed) I can ring in advance and let them know Ill be taking it out.

Again, I think Bargain provided no type of re-build.

Cool, what year R6 you looking at? What sort of budget? Plenty of people on here with nothing better to do but help you! (me).

well my budget myself is 2k - my OH has siad she will lend me 500, so 2.5k.

From what ive seen on fleebay, 2k-2.5 can land me a 1999-2000 reg R6

I so want one, I love them - but - ive seen a 03 ZX6R for 3K, its just getting that extra 500....... they are the only two bikes I really would like to ride.

Its a shame, Im really fussy on the look of lights

Since I had 'low carbs' from a previous bike put it, the SV is like the clappers - But im bored of the SV now

[St0rmer66]

You're fussy on lights but like the 03 ZX6R? . Very good bike though...

That model of R6 is fairly easy to come by for that sort of price. Should give you plenty of choice. The only major problem I know with them is that they sometimes jump out of 2nd gear when revved hard. If you can get a test ride then definitely check this as it's an expensive fix (£400-500).

yea 2003 pointy lights do it for me.

Thanks for the advice, I will deffo look into it when I find the right R6


Have been offered a nice R6 2003 for 3k from a forum member, Id pay it but OH thinks not too which is a shame.

Exellent choice
