Hi all, just got confirmed news that the third party has accepted liability and will be paying me out. this said i will be selling my damaged K3 and putting the money towards buying a new bike (if i find one).

it has mainly cosmetic damage to the front nose cone and the front forks are bent. i have the engineers report which i will upload along with pics of the bike in a few days.



could make a decent track bike, had a small service (oil, oil filter and air filter change), recently fitted new chain and sprocket before it got damaged. tires and wheels are in good condition also.21000 miles, 2 Keys, V5 in my name, 2 Previous Owners.

feel free to pm me i will try my best to answer your questions

looking for around £800 or any offers? swap? anything?

here is a pic before the accident

thanks

Hiya, tried pming you but didn't seem to work. Would you be interested in a 1998 gsxr600 race/track bike? Just done my first season at 3 sisters and got 1 win and a few 2nd and 3rds. Totally standard engine for reliability. Oil and filter changed every meeting. Braided lines, rearsets, linear springs, etc. Brakes and susp fully serviced before started racing. New SBS front pads. Spare wheels and various used wet and dry tyres. New Chinese levers(tried last week at oulton, spot on!) Plus some spares. I want to race minitwin next year so want a project.

Forgot to say, its my old road bike so has v5, old mots, etc. I don't have road kit anymore but nothing to stop someone putting it back on road as all wiring still intact.

I have a trailer bud, don't worry about transport. Unfortunately I only sold the road parts a few month ago! If I were going to put it back on road I would make up a detatchable rear l.e.d light/number plate bracket so I could remove easily for track use. Would mount a h.I.d lamp at front with a hole in race fairing. All wiring is intact, shortened but tidy and easy to re use at rear. All switchgear still on and connected, all clocks still in use and illuminated. Sorned at moment. Not sure if still have side stand, would have to look. Would give you a paddock stand if need be. All bits are ten a penny on eBay for these bikes.

Sorry for huge pics, don't know how to make smaller. Ps got more trophies since then. I know it looks very shiny but remember it is race bodywork done painted by me!

Don't scrap this mate. Keep hold of it till someone takes your arm off for it...
I'd be looking into it if I hadn't of just bought one.
Someone gives you £700 for this, spends 800 on gsxr forks, and hundred polishing it up, they have themselves a very nice bike for cheaper than most pointy's

Yep don't break it, if I didn't already have two Sv's in my garage right now i'd have this as a project. Before you say anything, no I don't have the room and my wife would shoot me. :p

Maybe but not a major increase, forks like that are worth little to nothing, Frames cat c so few people will want to take that on.
All you've got for sure there is the engine and wheels worth any money and that's only if it be proved to be running sweet.

Where about are you exactly? I'm not willing to "buy it now" for that price but it may be worth a visit to give it a little once over before I make a decision but I could well be up for it.

I've Got a few people that are coming to view the bike. I fired the bike up couple days after the accident and it ran fine however it has been sat since then and as a result the battery is dead. so will need a charge if i can find someone with a charger.

Yeah but it's finding someone who's willing to spend £800 on a Cat C K3 that's the tricky bit lol. Speaking as someone who struggled to sell a cat d k7 with less miles on than this about 2 years ago and I only managed to get £1800. If this bike were fully functioning and not a cat c it'd still be only sold for about £1200 at best.

When I pop up tomorrow I'll come on my bike pal, we can just swap the batteries over, then once I've heard it running I can vouch for it on here for you. besides its not like anyone can ride it away anyway lol, at least put people's minds to rest on if its tickity boo.

Are you interested in buying it or you just wanting to look at it? because to be fair would seem like a waste of time to just come and view it

okay update guys. few people have viewed the bike and was put off due to a knocking noise. so i got my brother to look at it and it was a problem with the clutch basket. a new one has been fitted along with a push rod and the noise has disappeared. in doing this a new gasket, oil and oil filter has been put in so the bike now runs mint. Price Still Stands £700
