Default Where to sell a K3 SV1000N

Folks,

Time has finally come. After several false starts, I'm going to move on....

Where is the best place to sell a connoisseurs bike such as this? The .org is pretty quiet these days. Ebay is full of chancers. Autotrader is very expensive. So if you have a wonderful well loved Naked SV1000 to sell on, where would you list it?

I wouldn't. I'd keep it in my garage for those long summer evenings when you fancy going for a cruise rather than a frantic blat on the sports bike.

That would be the ideal if I had somewhere to keep it. However I don't which is a real shame as I'm sure I'll regret getting rid of it.

Not far away from you if you fancy owning it

Not at the moment - I'm trying to get things out of my garage so I can convert it into a workshop. So adding a bike would be counterproductive unless you wanted to trade it for a non-running TVR that's been stripped out for track day use.

You haven't said how much you want for it.
Post a pic, and it might sell itself.

Everywhere... forums, Facebook, Gumtree, eBay classifieds. Not sure I'd bother with Autotrader any more though. I never look there.
