maybe selling the R6 ,1999 T plate its done about 17k miles ( i double check but i know its low for the age of the bike ), im just not using it at the moment and while i have some time i my hands id rather buy another project to run around on and get ready for the coming summer ( if we actualy have 1 this year ) , not going to say what i want for it just yet but id like to know what you guys think its worth.

full underseat exhaust conversion
solo rear unit - R1 rear lights
carbon fibre > chain guard , front and rear hugger , rear light surround.
front indicator conversion ( now intergrated into the headlights )
headlight covers
dynojetted
quickshifter
race rearsets
ohlins steering damper
metalicy black paint

probably loads of other stuff that i cant think of aswell but its had a good few grande spent on it.
like i said im just not using it at the moment and it needs to go to some1 who will enjoy it and trust me you will , sounds wicked nothing like a 600 at all more like a deep throaty 1000 and the pops and bangs it makes when backing off the throttle are awsome.

anyway just want to know what you guys think she's worth and or if any1 is interrested

With all the bling you're going to have to find someone that really likes it as you like it, otherwise if anything it may devalue the bike.
You probably can get more than a similar stand bike is worth, but expect it to take a while longer to find a buyer unless you're lucky.

If you've got the standard stuff, you'd probably do better getting it back to standard and selling all the bling off seperately.

i like the r6

but all that extra's would boost my insurance and it will be around 600 a year on a standard bike.

i go with trying to get it back standard and selling the extra parts separate

going back to standard isnt really a option as i got the bike with most of the mods already done ,
also couldnt really put the exhaust system back to standard as the swingarm was modded to acomodate the twin underseat conversion. only thing i can really take off would probably be the steering damper and maybe the quickshifter.
and as for the *bling* there all peformance mods dont ya know Smile

Jimmy - These guys saying its £2300 have no idea.
I'd put it at about £800 max market value.

In fact, for your convenience, I'll take it off your hands right now for £750 if you want?

Got a nippy reliable 125 2t, Honda build quality for quick swap if really interested. Wink Older rarer bike these days. Thumbs Up PM....... Very Happy

For most needed history check for my crash threads and vids. This does come under wear and tear though.
