Just wondering what the general concensus is on how much a 31k engine is worth complete with carbs, reed valves with fibre petals, rubbers link pipe, power valve motor, ECU and CDI, the engine is on standard bore and has no casing damage etc, overhaul I'd say its a very good motor, only thing its missing is the oil pump
Thoughts/views.......

Somewhere around what a brand new X7 would have cost, or maybe as much as a 250LC .. and I can see a few 'pm sent' messages popping up too lol

I'd reckon on around £100-150 for the lot and can I have first dibs on it ?

hehe, yes I know its very subjective, I've just removed it from a bike today and the owner wants to have some idea of value, I said it all depends on the buyer etc, but if sold as a complete package as stated above then it should be worth a decent amount, the snag is I struggled to give him a value, partly because I was thinking I wouldn't mind it myself !
Joking aside, I said it should fetch anywhere between £600 and £750, would that be a fair valuation/assumption?, I did say I'd ask on here as well, if only to be fair to him as he is a good customer so I'd like to look after him, I think the fact its on standard bores is a big bonus as well, I've left the head loose so I can take photo's etc for him
I think he's hoping the sale price will cover the cost of me building him a new LC engine as he's putting his 4L0 hybrid back to stock and all he has is the original matching engine casings for the frame, so he know's its going to be fairly expensive for me to build a new motor for him

ok cheers guys, think he'll be happy to hear that as it will cover the cost of his engine build and have a few pennies left over
suppose best place to sell it is fleabay then ?, unless somebody wants to make an offer on it ?, if so, PM me and I'll get some piccies taken as its sat in my garage as deposit for his engine rebuild !
