Default price advice required

I have a friend who cannot get on with his 2006 SV "Sport". He has had it since new and now wants to part ex it for a Blandit 650.


It has done 2400 fair weather miles, garaged since new, in red. Only mod being a snow shovelectomy.

What could he expect as a private sale? and what are the stealers likely to offer?

£3500ish private, £2800ish at a dealers.

The best guide of these things is Autotrader

Because before that he had a zzr600 (anything is better than that) and could not get on with that either.

I have told him to go and have a few test rides

I would tend to agree. Be lucky if he sees more than ?3k private.

Reckon they would offer about ?2400 at a stealers.
