Default How much is it worth?

I've got a MiniTwins race bike that was built form a Cat C SV650K3.

It was only on the road for just one month from new before being written off and was then used for 3 meetings in 2004.

It was our wet bike in 2005 so was only used a further two or three times.

I'm considering putting it back on the road as I have a brand new bike on order.

I would transfer all of the brand new road kit, including tank, exhaust, foot rests, shock, lights, etc. from the new bike on to this one.

How much would it be worth? Enough to make it financially viable or not?

A pure stab in the dark would be £1,800/£2,000 for a cat 'c' IMHO

Even with most of the parts being brand new?

Maybe £2,500 tops - not much more, but hey, that's just my opinion

That was my initial guess. Can't see it being much more than that.

IIRC Cat Cs need to have something done with the DVLA befopre they can be returned them to the road... Not sure about that

I presume you've looked at selling it to some budding minitwinner?
