They have this over on the "motors" forum and since seeing this on donedeal.ie I thought we needed the same. This time of year tends to bring them out.

Check out this nugget to get started

MOD NOTE: Please post a screenshot and price detail in all posts - since its donedeal many links are gone within days.

wow, dreamer is right - state of that exhaust!

I looked at the pic without looking at the price, and I thought 400e

arybvtcw0eolkf · 15-06-2015 5:36pm

€2,500 for that lol.. I sold one in immaculate condition for €1200 three years ago.

The tassle-merchants are often quite optimistic with their prices. Fine bike, though.

Does it come with the back box/chest?
It must still have some pirates treasure inside.:pac:

Maybe he is under orders to sell, and hopes it doesn't sell.

CJhaughey · 22-06-2015 10:38pm

Crashed Fireblade with no headlights or clocks?
Probably worth around 500 quid!

I know the price of bikes has risen a bit but wouldn't pay this
For a 04
I bought a 05 with 7000 on the clock over 2 years ago for €4k.

Low miles and looks clean but I can't see this making €4500.
I would think about €3000 and that's even a lot for a 15 year old bike.

Totally agree, though I have to give them credit, for the first time in ages a bike described as mint actually is IMO.

I think 3k is on the high side of what its worth too tbf. Nice bike though and it does look clean

Yeah, I'm being generous partly because of the mileage.
I wonder what kind of servicing it got over 15 years with such low mileage?
Lack of use isn't great for a bike either!

Surely that CBR is a 1000 euro bike, whatever about the other.

Nice bike. Worth somewhere between and third and a half of the asking price if you found someone that really really wanted one of them specifically but come on, the F bikes are hardly the stuff of dreams
