Whats it worth

[paul1606]

Thanks everyone for their opinion, the bloke in the end offered me £1500 on mine (god loves a trier) I,ve always liked the blackbird, not everybodys taste , and you know when you get one of those restless moments & think  about changing to something else .........well thats me at the moment. Id like to try one but the general concensus here screams out don,t be "A KNOB" you,ll regret it!!!!!



Considering polar bears experience & others no doubt, in doing the same eventually coming back to the frey think i,ll heed the advice cos i have,nt got money to chuck around experimenting


Thanks again everybody

I allways fancied a white bussa but it would have to be as a secondary bike.

Up untill I got the gen 1 I used to swap bikes at least once a year with a few exceptions of 2 year stints.
I keep looking at greener fields, blades, big trials, bussa etc but up untill now I have not found any other bike that will do everything I want and need from a bike.
There are much better handling or better looking, faster or better at one thing. But its allways a trade off with something else. A sorted gen 1 is the best all round package I have found to live with day to day.
I have test rode a lot and a few grab me and make me drool but in the cold light of day the trade off is all ways there.

If you do it you may love it. Maybe what YOU want from a bike is not what I want from a bike. So only you can make the choice. Most bikes have a place in the world. Work out what you NEED from a bike, not what you think you would like.

Oh and as for price I would have said about 2500-2750 but better of stripping the lower plastics,shock and multi gauge etc and selling sep as you don't tend to get much more for mods and can sometimes put some ppl off.
