Nice looking bike, and welcome to the forum

[trixynut]

Welcome aboard mate.
That's a nice looking bike, and with all the good extras already on it too: cans, belly pan, hugger, fender-extender.
Enjoy.

I know cheers. And a rad guard and tail tidy too It helped in the buying decision.

Just out of curiosity what is a rough value of one of these, (let's see if I've been done over or not)

Cheers matt

Aah, yes, see the rad guard now, and braided lines too.
Dunno bout your tail tidy, looks like a trimmed.standard mudguard to me.
Mucho discussion on prices in the past. I am.guessing its a 96 uk model with average mileage, less thay 30k?
Looks clean and got some bits on, would say around 1500 quid if a private purchase, maybe a shade more....

Yes it is a chopped down rear reg holder but its nice and neat

Well I paid 1100 squid. With 36k miles so I think I may have got a bargain for once

That was from a dealer too and it's got 2 brand new Michelin pilots and a service woo hoo.

Basically I went in to buy another bike but as I was looking sum1 else bought it and the trx was the guys trade in which I liked so the dealer did it me cheaper than he was going to advertise it as I missed out on other one.

As it turns out the trx is way better anyway.

I just can't get enough of the engine note ( I love it )

And the insurance is dirt cheap too. Best grand I've ever spent!

Nice bit of kit Matt, nice colour too.
Keep an eye on the oil level 'till you know how much it goes through.

[cravensmythe]

Nice bike, is it one that Jordan's had for £1280?

[m4tth3w]

Smaller number plate tidies up the back end

[cravensmythe]

I definately think I prefer the blue to the red!
