How much do I sell my TDR for?

So i've decided to sell my bike because I'm just not getting the use out of it anymore (working away a good bit).

The bike is a '98 with around 17 or 18k on it (haven't looked at the mileage in ages!) and runs perfectly - just got it serviced a month ago too. Also taxed till next year.

However, I know that there are 3 things that will need changing by a prospective buyer:
- Foot brake switch which currently doesn't activate the rear brake light (the front brake does so I just squeeze that lightly while rear braking)
- Loose / crossed wires that means when indicating right, the rear one stays on and the front one doesn't light (left side indicates fine)
- Front tyre has a slow puncture (needs hardening once every two weeks or so) and probably could do with being changed grip wise anyway (have a new back tyre so that's fine).

I don't want to undersell it, but equally I don't want to price it the same as the equivalent bikes because of those small things the buyer will likely want to do if buying it.

I have a price range in mind, but I'm interested in getting some opinions on what you'd sell it for in my position.

Cheers

I'd say about 600 euro

Tdr 125

I thought for a sec it was a 250

I'll give ya a €60 note for it!

On a more serious note try for €800. If it doesn't sell, lower the price. Always someone willing to pay more.

My first proper bike was a '98 TDR, loved it so much

Had my first drop off her too, busted up the gianelli pipe

Thanks for the replies all - roughly in line with what I was thinking. Ye it's a great bike but im barely using it at the moment so figure it's better for someone else to learn on it than for me to needlessly hold onto it
