Curvy naked for £1799 - thoughts?
 

Hi all
Is the 2001 650 naked in Fins priced a little steep AT 1799?
I saw it advertised in MCN.
My K5 is gone since March 2012 due a hit+run driver but
am lonesome again for a vee twin!

Yes

£1500 - £1600 tops for a mint curvy. Any more than that and you are creeping dangerously close to K3-K4 money.

that is insane! i paid that for a curvy 5 years ago!
For me, I'd pay nothing over £1200 for a curvy. Pointy is far more reliable mechanically and can be picked up for little over £1200 if you buy smart.

yeah used bikes have gone crazy money lately, I paid £3000 for a 2 year old k5 with 500 miles on the clock at the end of 2007.... I've seen k5's with 10,000 miles going for £2500-£3000 recently. Probably since not as many people are buying new/changing for new bikes every year or 2 like they used to..

Is this a dealer who is selling? then the price isn't that far out compared to say a private seller on e bay. Plus with all the nice weather of late everyone wants a bike.

If you can hold out for 4 months when the clocks change, it's ****ing down with rain and freezing cold then the demand and prices will drop. Depends how much that extra couple of hundred is worth to you.

£1800 for a curvy!!! as said pointys can be cheap, I paid less than £1200 for a 56 plate s model ;) bit tatty, but loaded with blingy crap Ive since sold, I wouldn't pay much for a curvy these days.

Dealer is Fins,Surrey

I've noticed a general trend that bike prices in the south are more than if the same bike was sold up north, I don't think it's just coincidence either.

That said the max I would pay for a 2002, low miles immaculate curvy with some useful goodies would be 1500 quid so yea I think that's very overpriced.
