single seat conversion - and depreciation???

[Quiff Wichard]

Ok

Kim no more pillion
so I can now totally make my bike a solo bike and sell all the pillion stuff. cut the footpeg brackets off etc etc--

will look ace..!


but-

will it hinder a future sale.(of course)

will it make my bike worth less?

I am not planning on selling it now for a year or 18 months anyway ..


anyone any opinion?

Yes it will. Usually, standard is best for a sale.

You might get lucky and find a buyer who wanted a solo bike anyway but you're reducing the number of pontential buyers.

Could you do it without any irreversible(sp) mods?

[Quiff Wichard]

yea can do- in fact thats how it is now..
but I dont like the rear footpe brackets now.. they look a mess.

and I hve a shed of seats and foot rests etc. that will just hang around and a low level scorpion link pipe and loooadsssss of stuff.

Quiff, got a rear sub-frame with the pillon mounts cut off. You could buy that and save your unmolested one for when it's time to sell. Just a thought like :smt003

Did you receive the rubbers ;)

wouldnt have a clue how to change it all over- loom etc..!!

may just cut these off and get a new one if I sell it..

or may just leave em on !!
