How much would you pay for a Honda CBR600f F-4 2003 with around 8k miles, dropped once but rest is mint. Full service history.
Answers appreciated.

If I could choose, I would argue £1 to be sufficient.

Back in the day, I'd say it was 2005 ish I bought a 2000W reg with 3k on the clocks for £2300. It was written off, never been serviced and generally rough. It was probably the best bike pound for pound Ive ever had I'd say!

Going back to now, with that many miles and a few scrapes (which doesnt put me off much to be honest) and looking at the going rate for 2003 F4's Vs RR's, Id be temted to pay around £2350 - £2400?

Considering it's been dropped and has some minor cosmetic damage, £2100 ish, based on the low milage.

Ok, here is the bike i was talking about
https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2003-HONDA-CBR-600-F-4-RED-/270652247510?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item3f04218dd6

On other hand there a nice ZX6R 1999 G2 for sale for a real good price which im considering as well.

I paid £2000 for mine (older with more miles and a few problems to sort) and that was a v.good price a year ago, it is probably worth about £2300-2400 depending on overall condition service history and how bad the damage is (pics wont load for me).

It is low mileage and pretty new after all, although he hasn't had it long and has barely a thousand miles on it since march. He says it is used everyday, I doubt it. I'd be suspicious of something (probably the downpipes or other consumables) nearing replacement time.

They were asking for way too much!

Considering I got my 2001 FireBlade for £2400 (including 150 mile delivery) and a whole host of parts, that's certainly overpriced. My bike had 13k when I got it and had service history and old MOTs. 2K would have been my absolute limit.

ZX6R-G's on the other hand! Nothing really goes wrong with the G/J/A1P's or any kwaks for that matter. Honda have issues with electrics. BUT I've had nothing other than joy with my old ZX6R

I couldn't possibly tell you until I see a picture. I'm very much a visual creature.

But I would definitely check this site out before making a final decision: https://www.usedbikeguide.com/

Not in the first post there isn't...come on, you know me, when do I ever read through a whole post?

I read the title, skim read the first paragraph and click onto the comment bit. Razz
