Curvy SV - what's it worth?

[skov]

Hi guys,

I'm considering selling my SV, and wondered if anyone can give me a clue as to how much I can expect to get for it.

It's a '99 faired curvy in yellow (the best colour!).
Done about 24k miles.
It's a little cosmetically challenged. I've ridden it all year round so the finish has suffered a bit. It also has a few cracks, scrapes, and scratches on the fairings. Mechanically it's sound, but it's probably due a good service.
It's fairly standard but has racetech emulators in the forks and an aftermarket end can. Also got the 33bhp washes (not fitted).

Any ideas?

Cheers,

John

about a grand, maybe a bit less

[warrenhewitt10]

yeh id say about 800-1000 depending on the condition!

I've got some cheese in the fridge if you'll take that!!

I think about a grand is about right if its only fairing damage you have. Most important thing should be a bike thats running right with no rust imho. Cant you sort of buff the scrapes out or something?

[skov]

Ooh now you're talking, what sort of cheese is it?

You pay me, after all it is a curvey :)

Id, say the 1kish mark as well or look on bike trader see what similar ones are up at, thats what i normally do.

Them's fighting words!
Everyone knows curveys are best :p

i'd say £1100 - thats not bad milage for a 10 year old bike. You could get a bit more if you tidy it up (post pics?) and if you sell it restricted to someone on a 33bhp lisence (better to pay an extra £100 than ge the bike unrestricted and then pay £250!)

Its red leicester where one end has somehow magically hardened and turned a beautiful sun setting red. The rest is standard fiery orange. All 100% fine to eat honest!

Throw in a half eaten pack of jacobs crackers and we've got a deal!

if you clean it really well and stick it on bike trader you could get 1300+ looking at some of the ones local to me on there

polishing the down pipes makes magpies pay more

Rivita minis is my final offer. I'm not made of money!

Or maybe i could stretch to a fiver & a curly wurly!!:p

[dizzyblonde]

NAh, I'll just give you peanuts :-)

Seriously, need to give us a bit more info, before anyone can give you any valueble replies.

Sorry mate, curly wurlys are far too intricate for my simple tastes.

How about a marathon, a pack of opal fruits, and a bottle of Jif?

In that case I will have to respectfully decline. I'm only interested in biscuits with a radius greater than 1".

Well yeah, its a curvy aint it?

Probably around £800/£900 I reckon.
