I personally would say it is over-priced for £2000 but it is starting at £500. It should sell at around 1500 with that many owners. I certainly would not pay more than that but I may be a tight arse.

£2000 seems well over priced...especially with 11 owners.

Ive seen quite a few suzuki GSXR SRAD's and kawasaki ZX6R's going for just a bit less than £1500.

try not to let your enthusiasm for your first big bike get the better of you. I'd advise you to get your licence first then look around at everything, get insurance quotes for a variety of bikes.

Once you get your licence you can then go around all the dealers and get some test rides on as many bikes as possible to see what you feel most comfortable on. Sports bikes arent for everyone, you need to see what suits you best.

Remember that if you have an accident a sportsbike can be more expensive to repair due to the fairing etc.

Try out some sports bikes, naked bikes such as honda hornets, suzuki bandits and yamaha fazers etc. Try out the trailie type of bikes and the tourers. Try to decide what suits you for the type of riding you will mostly be doing (commuting, fun open roads, touring etc)and what you really want from a bike.

I'm not too sure about the price of restriction, but i think it's around £100.

£200 and you don't need a restriction kit either. Do a search on 33bhp restriction. I will not repeat it in this thread.
