bandit -> sv

Hi,

I posted a while back about swapping my bandit for an sv, i've decided to go ahead - just wondered if anyone knew what a good price would be for a bandit 600-S, 2004 model with scottoiler - 1500 dry miles - 1 owner from new (me) - i've been offered £2400 against a £3700 SV 650 K4 by Streetbike in Birmingham - I have just bought an RV125 VanVan for the mrs from them so I might have a bit of leverage with that, but if not - do you think around £3,100-3,200 is a good private sale price? I know you can get the faired ones new now for about £3,800 so don't want to price it too high!

anyone willing to swap?

trouble is the bandits are going mega cheap at the minute ive seen naked 600's going for 3500new dunno about faired think it was 3995.sounds like a good offer uve been given

hi-re your prices on faired bandys,i was quoted 3595 otr-k4 model at knotts of redditch,and highway mcs in wolverhampton(also have new sv650s@3695} was 3695 k4 otr-so i reckon youve got to go under 3k?-i saw the light and have just brought a new sv1000 otr for 4000!
best of luck.

Blimey Look at the price of the R6!

Well done on making that wise choice- don't know much about where to get your best deal locally , but I do know that the sv is a far far better bike than the bandit- as my mate rich knows lol.
