price ideas please
« on: 25 June 2013, 03:09:41 pm »
I love my FZS600 (02) reg, but having come in to a little money I can afford to buy a newer bike...hooorah!  Will certainly be going down the FZ6 route but I wanted some ideas what my bike is worth...
02 reg. red (so obviously faster) FZS600.
33000 miles
scottoiler, heated grips and givi rack everything else is standard.
down pipes are ok but getting close to needing replacement I reckon
front fairing is in one piece, but araldite is holding the 2 indicators in place after two very low speed and embarssing offs.
I would say the overal condition is average.  rear tyre (road pilot 3) is about 2000 miles old and it will need a new front to get theough the MOT which I'm doing this weekend.
What do you reckon???  I'm thinking I'm lucky to get £1000, more like £800 or am I doing myself an injustice?

Advertise it as £1500 (you should be able to get that), and if not, £1200 sounds very fair!

Depending on where in the country you are I have seen them going from anywhere between £800 - £1500. I nearly bought a "mint" 2001 model from Glasgow for £1100 last month.

Have you taken an fz6 for a test ride, personally (as well as many others) I much prefer the fzs600!


Just saying!
