My new 650 Honda Bros

[400bandit]

Hello people. Here's a few pics of my newest purchase, kind of an impulse buy but what the heck.

Here's a free can that also comes with the bike

From the e-bay ad;

"Honda bros 650 only 28000 km thats approx 17000 miles i have owned this bike for nearly 7 years i have made a few tasteful upgrades,rgv250 seat unit,stainless exhaust with fireblade can(not too loud and ok for mot),powdercoated wheels(triple s),dyno jet kit,new bridgestone tyres."

Now that seems awful low mileage to me? I wonder if it has been round the clock? tbh I'm not too worried as they are supposed to be near indestructable. The guy who owns it is suppost to be a maintainance mechanic (although I am aware there seems to be a lot on ebay )

What would you say would be a fair price for it? I'm happy with what I paid, I think with the mods (quite tasteful IMO) it's hard to put a price on it.

"Now that seems awful low mileage to me? I wonder if it has been round the clock?"

I meant that if it is actually 28,000 KM's then thats pretty damn low for one of these, they're a firm favourite with dispatch riders and couriers. It may be the case that it has been round the clocks (128K) which is possible for these machines. That said I doubt it as they guy has owned it for 7 years and looks like it just been his sunday bit of fun.

Cool, I think it will be worth the 641 pounds that I paid for it, what do you think?

Looks good, I do like the BROs series.

I almost got the 400version but there was something about it that didn't sell it to me. Prehaps it was the fact that when I started it up there was a blue liquid dripping from the enigine haha, so I walked away.
