 |
|
Looking at this locally tonight and we've agreed a verbal price of 1800, good value for money? https://bit.ly/1e2wkXg
I know I'm a pain in the ass with my threads lol, apologies in advance!!
Looks like it needs a bit of cosmetic work but nothing major!! |

Well, for example.
Take a Street Triple for example.
Buy it for 8k.
Spend over 1k on exhaust, full system.
It will sound nicer, but more than likely slightly different from stock, some may make it weaker at various parts of rev range, some the total opposite.
You can then get it set up properly so it fuels correctly at the right time on the dyno. Probably £200 for a generic one, maybe a little more.
If you leave it, its just a big price tag that you'll try adding into the sale that doesn't really do much.
101hp to 116hp would make me think, hmm that's quite an increase, saves me the hassle and he has spent some time and money on it.
No mention of power, adjustments, just "£1100" on an exhaust... I'd just ponder on it.
I'd find other bikes for £1800 personally. |

However, that engine case is very very suspect. It looks like it's hiding some serious damage, and if there are bits of metal from the cases inside the engine then it's bye bye engine.
To be honest, for that money you are never going to get a minter, however You want to go with something that needs a new tyre, or a new fork seal or something, not one which could lunch it's engine at any time. |
Yeah I know what your saying, valid points, I don't think it's worth it now, all sorts of nasties could be going on under that engine casing, it doesn't protrude beyond the fairings so why didn't they crack first if it was just dropped!! |

The paint on that bike reminds me of when I would fill a tub with various different colours of paint and dip pieces of paper into it to make crazy tie dye looking art.
The bike looks shitter than those pictures and that's saying something.  |
