Forks & yokes - £200 Bit steep imo, but you'll probably sell at that price
Front wheel - £60
Rear Wheel - £80 Fair if you're including postage in the price
Acewell Dash - £100 Fair
Tank - £40 Fair
Odds and ends - £150 Dunno what the bits are
Bars with risers £40 Cheap

Rough estimate of course, but that tots up to £1170. I was willing to sell the bike with all the spares I also have for £800...

This is what I would personally pay for the bits,but you'll probably getsomeone buy themat the prices you want.

Why are you breaking it now? Surly that is going to lose you money!?

Noooooo keep it!

Or, post it on the CBR forums and wait for JB's inevitable "witty" banter while you try and get some useful info out of him....

Why you buy it cheap or something?

No but I sought advice on selling the bike as a whole and would only have got £1000 if that. Yes I've lost out from what I paid for it, but faced the reality of what I would get before I tried to sell it.

kepp it as a winter project?
