The bike looks stunning & worth every penny to the new owner. Hope you dont end up regretting selling-I was very sorry to ay goodbye to mine a few years back-but life happen & things change. Good luck with the sale

[Neon Knight]

Whoever buys this will have the bargain of the year. 

[bigbluebear]

Not a great time of year to try and sell this......had some silly offers of £2,500 which is same as a trade in offer I've had recently ......may have to mothball until the spring......price drop to £3,500

[Exupnut]

Why r u selling?

[devilsyam]

Was my thought to along with you can buy a 08 fz1 for that sorta money now that's not me pissin on your fire it's a lot bike for that money but it's been said many times before maybe better taking off the goodies and getting it back to near stock sell the bits do it that way

[cable tie]

had some silly offers of £2,500

I don't think that's a silly offer, I think your original price is £1k overpriced .

Have to agree with the other lads.
If, (that's a big if) I was to sell mine,  07 Gen 1 with 20K on the clock and mod's galore I might at a push in prime biking season get £3500 and get jack for all the original parts, or as DY say's put it back to STD and get £2500 for the bike the best part of £2000 for the bits. 
Ok it's a load of messing around selling the bits but for an extra £1000 it has to be worth it.

[Exupnut]

07 Gen 1 ?

[Mick-H]

07 Gen 1 ?

Yup, 05 bike I think, but first registered on 27/3/07, must be one of the last to be registered.

[bigbluebear]

Last chance to buy a well sorted bike, price drop to £3,336 (or as close as to a fellow Foccer) as I've now been offered that on a trade in against the new Suzuki GSX S1000f and also the new 2016 Kawasaki Z1000sx from the same dealer.....not made my mind up yet on which one.

[devilsyam]

If that the dealer offer bbb snap his hand of

[mickvp]

If that wasn't specifically with all the tweaks BBB then I would be going for that and stripping off the easier bits.

It's for everything Mick, including all the spares I have

[nickodemon]

Take the dealers offer, as you won't get that price for it in a private sale at this time of year.

Not if Mick wants it

[mickvp]

If I had the money I would mate as its a cracker.

[Exupnut]

How much for the exup valve ?

Tough choice on the bike you buy. i haven't read many reviews on the suzook, but i had the same engine in my gixxer k6 with a higher state of tune and it was a stonking engine! The kawa is similar in power to the fazer standard i think... I think you should test ride them both, as i think your ivanised fazer with the suspension mods may actually match both the kawa and suzuki.

+1, I would have had traded my vgc stock forks for the the K-tech'd ones.

And regarding the comments about the value, its all about what people are willing to pay. A quick look on autotrader shows that a mint/vgc gen1 with around 20-30k go for around £3k all day long. So BBB's price with all the addons is a very good price

[bigbluebear]

There are many a newcomer coming on here asking advice on buying and even after buying a gen 1 asking about modifying their bikes.

You're right a good standard one will cost 2-2.5k and then spending on Ivan's jet kits at £300, rear shocks at around 400, end cans 2-300, hugger 100, belly pan 100.....spending well over £1200 before brake lines at 80, front shock internals 100. Many of you guys have even gone for R1 forks amongst many other additions too....never mind fitting costs

So I find it hard to believe on a Fazer enthusiasts forum that some on here are devaluing our bikes that have been well looked after...your own included.

Anyway it's a great time to buy from a dealer right now being end is season as I've now been offered £3,635 as they have now seen the bike and valued it as what I think it's worth.....now it's bite their hand off time
