View Full Version : K8 naked in black for sale
My K8 naked is up for sale now.
It has, today anyway, 43208 on the clock. it has had regular oil and filter changes done by myself and service stuff swapped etc as per book.
It is a very tidy bike for a bike with 43k on the clock.
I have pictures available if you want them mailed. I will try and get them hosted somewhere so I can put them on here.
Add ons are, braided hoses, belly pan, mini front indicators with special side plate for mini's, R & G crash bungs and a gold chain which has been used with a scottoiler (scottoiler not included - sorry), Fuel exhaust, slight scratch but doesn't stick out too much in real life. Other than that, pretty standard...
Bad points are the water pump cover is corroded, its an SV ... lol and the forks were looking very tired so I did a quick fix spraying them black but it was a quick fix. They look OK but just thought I'd mention it.
I am after in the region of £1950 or near offer. For a quick sale I might be open to a bit of haggling, try me....
I am near Heathrow just off Junction 4 of the M4.
Any questions, feel free to ask.
Does nobody like naked's anymore ?

I think people do like naked bikes but near £2k for a 43,000 miles SV sounds seems expensive.
Fair point. It looks good in the flesh though and I can understand the mileage putting some off. I am open to haggling but would highly recommend somebody half interested to take a look....
Some pictures ...

More on request if you let me have an e mail
Going to put it on eBay soon. Open to offers and I can't stress enough how nice this bike is in the flesh.....

I would just like to add that
a) It does look nice when you see it.
b) It is the best sounding SV I can remember.
c) It might have a good few miles but FG1 is a very slow rider.
Will pay you the same as I paid for my last sv......
And that one had only 6k on it
To be fair to you though, I bought a 2003 naked, complete undamaged, full akra system, tail tidy, renthal bars, flyscreen (x3) New Hagon rear shock (to be fitted) new front springs etc (to be fitted for upgrade). Unfortunately I had to MOT it myself (passed 1st time no advisories the morning after I collected it with just fitment of a new battery to ensure it got to test station )
Bought 3 years ago
Will you accept my offer?
Terry
I don't know. What's the offer ?
Same as I paid for the above bike £925.00
Erm, no thanks, I think i will pass on your generous offer.
Thanks for showing an interest though...
No probs !!!! I got a real bargain!
Pm me what you are willing to accept as a minimum.
Need another bike as my son nicked mine !!!
Its a shame you are in Stafford. If you were able to look at the bike it would help.
I won't pm my lowest price as the bike is up for what its up for. If you would like to make a counter offer, via pm is fine, then I would consider it.
Do you know anybody in the Ruislip area that may be able to give an unbiased opinion on the bike for you ?
I will be going down the eBay route on Friday. I don't like eBay so am definitely open to haggling if I can sell sooner rather than later.
Ok, I would like to avoid eBay so I will hold off for a couple of days.
After a bit of jigging finances around, my bike could be yours for the very competitive price of............
£1500 for a quick sale.
This is because of two reasons. I don't like eBay but I do like the org.
Anyway, let me know if interested.
Bargain for a genuinely nice bike!!

I can, interstellar miles puts most people off and at £1500 still isn't what I would call cheap. It does look nice from the photos.
for £1500 there are a looot worse bikes with a 1/4 of that mileage and same money. it looks very well cared for. 6k a year is what i do on my bike and mine is just for pleasure only difference is mine is tucked away for the winter the above bike is used daily so its not interstellar miles. ok at the original £1950 asking it was a bit rich but at £1500.....
its a bargain.
I've been on a ride out with the guy
His a sensible owner and the bikes been looked after.
Lots worse out threre.
It is a very nice bike. Met up for a ride when the weather was a lot nicer and the bike looked in great condition. Most of the SV's that day had over 50k miles and were all flying down the back roads very happily without any problems.

Hi there, is this still around?
It is indeed. I need to get my bum in gear and get it on The bay......
Speedy, replied and extra pics sent...
Well, I had interest last week with somebody interested in viewing this weekend. I held off the Ebay add but haven't heard back from them.
Looks like it will be on Ebay Sunday evening then.......
i dont understand why people are not biting your hand off for this bike.

i dont understand why people are not biting your hand off for this bike.
Probably a little bit early, next month would probably see it go, once its a little bit warmer.
Plus its not that long after Crimbo
Bad timing is the only reason I didnt buy it.
Bought the wife a naked k8 about 2 months ago.
Mileage is scaring people off. Not looking forward to selling mine, on 56k and rising.

I didn't buy it as I have gone for a pre-reg brand new CB650f

Hi, is his still for sale?
Will
Sorry, been absent for a bit. Yes it is. I have answered your pm too..
Hi FG1, I've PM'd you again - my sent items are empty, not sure if this is a feature or it didn't go, please let me know if you haven't received the reply.
This is still here and available. It's probably my own fault though because I haven't got my ass in gear and advertised it elsewhere yet. Mind you, once the sun comes out ........
Anyway, before I do get my ass in gear and throw it on gumtree, eBay and the likes, anybody fancy coming and taking a look.
Willf has had a look and I am sure can confirm that it is indeed in a very good condition.
So, start breaking the door down guys, and gals of course......

This is a a really good looking bike and well cared for. Needs to be seen in the flesh really to fully appreciate it. £1500 is an absolute steal, would have paid the original asking price if I had the money...
Jason, thank you for the praise. Will has tonight confirmed that he wants it. I hope it brings him as much pleasure as it brought me. It will be a sad day as I watch it ride away but its replacement has already cheered me up...

Replacement...pray do tell!?
You wouldn't believe me if I told you.
Hum, does it start with a T ?.
I'm sure the new owner will like your bike, you spend every night shift cleaning it...lol.hence mint condition.
Well, thats the end of an era. My lovely bike rode into the distance today, without me ........
it starts with an s
s1000r?!

S125
Scott Scale 60, oh I already have one of them.
Well, it's a pointy, so a SV1000???
Nope. Sorry to disappoint but been replaced with a K8 naked.... Lol
In grey but with 30000 miles less. I did think of getting something different but this was a good price and I do like the SV.

Haha, brilliant. Think a photo maybe necessary.
You going to fit the shock to this one???
Jason H

I think we all know he's never getting round to fitting that shock!
