Have you tried phoning round a few dealers
oh, and you have let chancers know you have to get shot of it.
me i'd buy it £6,66 lol
I also think that Classified Adverts perform far less well than auctions.
You wanted honest opinions so I'd make the following points1) Get rid of the colour and formatting of the advert, it's not necessary. A clean, straight forward advert will help sell the bike.2) Your price is ok for a dealer but too high for a private sale. I paid a lot less for a great 03 plate 13k mile FZS600 a few months back3) You say new tyres but you also say they have done 2500 miles, choose one line and drop the other4) No service history, some may be wary. Got any receipts or anything that might back up the servicing?5) Drop the bit about the matrimonial issues, you need a car - end of.6) Slim the whole advert down, if folk are initially interested they will ask about the detail7) "When I say totally reliable I MEAN it. I would go anywhere on this bike tomorrow without hesitation." again drop this, it's unnecessary and smacks of desperationHope you take the above as constructive and good luck with the sale, she looks in great condition. Let the pics speak for themselves except for the cam cover pic that shows corrosion, drop it.Bob
oh, and you have let chancers know you have to get shot of it.reasons for sale are a) too much bike for meb) change of job means it won't be usedc) selling it for a dead mates wife (won't work if V5 is in your name)d) only allowed 2/3/4 bikes at home, last in first out!
On a serious note take a look of the 2001 blue (the best colour) bike a couple places from yours on eBay bike is in Maidstone kent 30k on the clock, nice reg plate evo ! has genuine belly pan, twin high level cans, genuine yam touring screen the expensive one and many other extras new c/s and fresh mot he offered me the bike for £1800 and said its very tidy, taking that into account if a dealer offered you £1800 I'd take it. All the best.
Best bet is take a picture with wife/gf half naked astride the bike that will do the job, seems to work for others.
I'll definately be keeping an eye on the sale though.
6) Slim the whole advert down, if folk are initially interested they will ask about the detail
