Ok I know I've posted too much today but Middle Finger . Smile

That out the way I really really like this bike but not sure how much it's worth.

If the bike is good condition what you reckon?

Are bike like cars that the more you mod them the lower the resale gets?

Engine related mods sure as a nice can increase value. unneccicary or overly flashy cosmetic mods decrease value.

No idea on value, but thats one hell of a nice bike! Thumbs Up

Mods lower value. The only things that can add value are things like ohlins suspension and full akro exhaust systems - and even with them you'd expect the originals to be supplied.

By the look of that bike its a hawk or bros 400 or 650 with an illegal can, a silly headlight, very cheap indicators, and painted rims.

If it was the 400 I'd pay about 700 quid, and about 900 for the 650. Maybe 1k for the 650 if it had the original parts too.

Actually to be honest I think its quite nice, mind you those idicators would be the first to go if I brought it, apart from that I think its dead smart.

First of all Robby you are the most miserable git. I like it!!

Yeah its a 400, so around 700 quid, thats cool.
I know you all like supersport stylings but I can't get one of those cos I'll crash it so I'm going for this.
