For comparison https://www.donedeal.ie/motorbikes?sort=price%20desc&price_to=3000&engine_to=1000&engine_from=600&year_from=2005

There is a cbf100, BMW F800s and a good few other bikes that are the same price but 4 years younger. God loves a trier

What ya think of the sp?

A myth. They couldn't sell them when they came out, the SP1 was massively discounted to get things moving and the Sp2 basically sat there with nobody buying it at all (bar a few early ones) until it finally died out.

Now it has achieved mythical status and the UK dealers are cleaning up on it. At least it only affects people that want to pay too much money for old bikes (a bit like antique dealing and art). :pac:

Worth about 2000 and that's it
A 929 all original would go for about 2500 to 3000 max and that one was butchered
I sold a mint one last year and nowadays the market for litre sports bikes is at an all time low due to high insurance quotes

You've more money than sense if you think that thing is worth 2k.

IMO €1000-€1200 max, but only if I was really stuck for a bike.

He'd have to pay me to take it away.

I love the description. Very tidy, really?

I'd find it hard believe that someone would do that to a blade unless it's been smashed.

But nearly always :P, no problem with a modder, they'll nearly always have the original kit to go with the bike should a new owner want to change back (been there), if the kit's not there then view with maximum suspicion - from bent/cracked frames and on down.

True that, but sometimes the old parts fund the new parts...;)

Dont see an issue if the new buyer is happy with the price...

Out of interest Max, how much would you say that bike is worth?
Here's one for cheaper in absolutely mint condition with 12000 miles on the clock.
I was looking at it just now and had a good look at it. Every nut and bolt everywhere still like new.
Hasn't been painted, hasn't needed engine work and hasn't a broken/cut front mudguard

Now this is a nice bike

Edit: forgot to mention it's 2002.
