If the first one's full service history is good then 600 odd pound could be put on many things...

Quite like the bike, looks like it would be a fun ride Thumbs Up

to me the top one has the best deal but both are very good examples.

also depends on how much ££££££££ you have to spend as well..

good luck with choose Mr. Green

I have enough to buy the more expensive one once my bike sells. It's for sale by the way if anyone's interested in a ZX6R.

Thinking about my other topic I posted yesterday about double akropovic slip ons, maybe the £2500 one would be a good choice and spend the difference on the akropovics.

I just wondered what the difference is there, obviously the mileage but they're both 2005 models but one has 3 year warranty. Also the cheaper one is 20 miles away and the other one is 75 miles away.

If the more expensive one came with a 3 year warranty as well, would the lower mileage really be worth an extra £650 ? By the time I'm finished with it, probably have put 5k miles on the clock.

I would get the first the difference in mileage is negliable.

Are you sure it comes with the 3 year warranty and it's not just an optional extra?

I agree the way it is worded, to me suggests you need to pay for it.

I agree, deceptive advertising there! Going to check that tomorrow but I reckon you're right, probably an added extra.
