Does this seem overpriced?
 

My daily refresh on autotrader has revealed a bike less than 3 miles from me!

details:
2003 Sv650 fully faired K3
33700 miles
12 months mot (4 advisories - front brake, tyre, noisy exhaust & n other)
Alarm (veto plus?)
Datatagged
Restrictor kit (not fitted)
quite a few bumps & scrapes (tank dent, paint missing)
up at £1900
Is this realistic, or overpriced?
What do the experts :wink: think?

Over-priced

I paid £1200 for a 2000 Curvey in 2009 with 28k on the clock and she was in a rough state too

over priced there is a 2003 sv650s k3 in a much better condition on here in for sale forum for £1,800 ovno

Re: Does this seem overpriced?
 

Overpriced, thats worth no more than £1400

EDIT: Sorry, not "worth £1400" would expect to sell for £1400

Re: Does this seem overpriced?
 

It doesn't matter what price the bike is advertised at, it only matters what the seller will accept for it, and you won't know that until you make him an offer.

Don't fall into the "I WANT A FULLY FAIRED ONE" trap. You can buy the fairings yourself brand new for £300, or second hand for as little as £50 on flea bay. Don't spend an extra grand for two bits of plastic.

Also, I would pass on a bike with advisories and multiple bumps/scrapes at that price. You can get minters for that money.

My 2002 curvy was mint, 17k miles, £1700 in 2009.

I have a K3 SV650S with 17000 miles, restrictor kit, META M357V2 alarm, Alpha dot and a couple of scratches on the tank. I was looking to change my bike and the garage near me would pay me £1800. Private probably £2000. I would say with that high miles probably £1500

eeeek !! that seems well overpriced.. but like said before, its what they take not advertised at :D

& sometimes its worth travelling a far distance if it means cheaper or a better deal in the long run.

Its about 5-600 notes overpriced, could need about £500 of work/ spares depending upon the advisories

Re: Does this seem overpriced?
 

my K3 had 30k on the clock and a few extras when it was written off last August. The Insurance gave me £2k for it, since then i imagine another 10% cold be knocked off that price.
I agree with AS about the advisories, that could cost you a bit-use it as leverage on the price
