I have an 04 ZX636 ninja for sale. due to some 'too old to be on the road' codger, it has some cosmetic damage. The engine is perfect and i have just serviced it while it is off the road.

Its only done 3500 miles...it would make a great track bike. I just dont have the time to fix it or do track days so I'm looking to sell.

To get it on the track it would only need some LH and top fairings.

I will even throw in some pirelli super corsa SP's to the buyer

Open to offers but no less than £2500

When I first read the title, I thought it said 'bike track for sale' and wondered why someone would think us mere mortals would be able to afford a track... Laughing

How much does it actually cost to build/maintain a track? Considering how much you make a year, I might look into this Thinking

You could prob buy a near mint bike at that price that hasn't been down the road.

That's the 02 model, although mike's right, 2.5k is where road B1hs start, and is rather umm amibitious for a crashed bike.

Lots and lots. Building a new track would mean finding somewhere without NIMBYs. Sad

From where I sit the best way to do it would be a big brownfield site, like Rockingham was I think.

That way it's already in an industrial area, so fewer NIMBYs. Wink
