I had a Kymco KR Sport 125cc before, and only went bigger cause some b*****d teenagers decided to nick it and write it off.
But by god this bike is so much bigger/heavier/louder and better looking.
Quite scary, yet very exciting at the same time.

Very shiney, good condition. May I be cheeky and ask how much/how many miles?

And ditch the tank cover Laughing

It's a 2001 with 29,000 miles.
Paid £1,550 with 6 months tax, a brand new MOT, the tank cover and luggage rack.
Not sure if a good deal or not, but I was willing to pay that for it and am very happy with what I got.

And I like the tank cover Sad

Ah that's alright then, atleast I know I've not been ripped off.
The bike is immaculate, not a scratch or dent anywhere. Apart from a small chip in the paint on one if the engine guards.

Found the bill for them in with the paperwork. £381 for new disks and for them to be custom milled.

I Love it, I also agree with the "ditch the leather tank cover". I'm no bike expert, But I definitely think £1.5k with those miles and that condition is a pretty decent price. I hope you look after it Smile

Hmm, I'm getting the feeling that tank covers aren't as popular as I would have thought.
I do like the look of it on the bike, which is one reason I got it. The other reason is for a tank bag. I am an avid photographer, so im looking to be doing journeys of any thing from 50 to 400-500+ miles to get to the shot im after. My camera gear alone is worth £2500+ so want something secure for the extra bits of camera equipment or clothing that I cant fit in a backpack/luggage box.

Don't forget you can always get Panniers which will obviously give you a lot of space. If your gear is worth £2,500+ don't skimp out on your bags Smile

Looks like a nice piece of kit to me, no idea on value, as long as you're happy with what you paid for it, that's all that matters.

As for the tank cover, don't let the BCF fashion police dictate to you, according to them a sticker will give you aids. Rolling Eyes

If you're going to leave it on, long term, take it off once in a while to make sure there's no damp trapped under it.

Then as Sid said, dont let the fashion police put you off. Your bike and if you want to have the tank protector on there then you go for it. Bike is a lovely looking machine, very clean. The tank protector will help keep it that way if it gets dropped. Thumbs Up

Hehe, I'll keep it on then.
Must remember to take it off if I come to a meet though, just so I dont have the 'P' taken to much. Mr. Green

As soon as I can ride it, cant wait to meet up with some other bikers and have a good day riding and chatting.
