Around £300-£400ish you can. Mid 1990s ones though, they tend to go for £500ish the unfinished auctions.

Tanks look to be 'New old stock', that is brand new items for a non new bike. If you're restoring an old bike new old stock is the ultimate stuff. 06 isn't really old enough to be charging a real premium on mint parts though.
