It does looks nice. If you think you may have any regret parting with it and you have the space, I too would keep it. You cannot put a price on sentimental value but if you have good reason to part with it, then that can help ease the situation and make it the right thing to do. No help with a Β£ figure, I know.

Matt this is my favourite Bling bike.
Sorry I can't help you with a price, I doubt you will come out money wise.
What's the reason for not Riding?

Is there a ceiling for bikes like this? I know how much they cost to build, and as Matt says, he knows what it owes him, but realistically, what's the top price someone will stomach paying for a bike like this, for sure its a stunning bike, and were it mine, unless I absolutely had to, it would be going nowhere, but that's me, given the chance I'd have kept all the bikes and cars I've owned, as for one reason or another I liked them that much to buy them (aside from an utterly boring Lexus is200). My current bikes and cars are keepers until I can no longer physically use them, and probably worthless by then too. So, would there be buyers for bikes 10k and above? Yes new ones obviously as bikes now are not like there were when I was getting into them, affordable travel, now its all tech and gizmos and boom 20k please. Am I rambling?

Hey Yogi, shame you are selling, but your choice, has to be around 8-10k?
Good luck whatever you decide.

Its worth what someone will give you for it and trust me I know, there aren't a lot of buyers about with deep enough pockets but the you only need one, I only got one interested party in the Spondon but I knew he would buy it within about 30 minutes of chatting to him. Don't listen to the naysayers, I feel so good after unloading most of my collection I can't tell you, still have my Buell and thats probably done 300 miles in two years but it is one of the best in the country so it has a hold on me but that may yet leave the building. Best thing you can do is put a price on it you'll settle for, itll find its own level after that. Nice bike though and good look with the sale. Andy

I'm totally with Andy (Spondon440) on what he said. If you are not using it, and freeing up funds brings a whole lot more joy, then you just need that 1 person who loves it exactly the way it is and has the funds. I sold both my recent Lc hybrids for 5 figure numbers, and basically got back what they owed me, so it does happen. I would ask 10k + if it were mine Good luck mate, whatever you decide. Dusty

Matt there will be people who mess you about theyβll offer you stupid money they may attempt to play you off against Steve on values. These people are assholes who You donβt want as a buyer as theyβll be a nightmare, they have a history of messing about and will probably never purchase yours or Steveβs bikes. I would be firm on the value I wouldnβt accept being chipped or negotiated with in fact I would advertise it as such. It owes you decent money forgetting your time , you couldnβt build one for close to what you want for it and as Andy and dusty say you only need one decent buyer (not an asshat) to have it. Glwts buddy π

I wonβt be giving it away and at the same time Iβm not a dreamer,,I know itβs rare to get anywhere near what these cost to build
Iβll have a think and put it in the for sale section
Thanks for all the help

Yogi, I understand how grown-up life can change your priorities and leave little time for riding, and sometimes having money in your hand can be more important than a garage full of wonderbikes, and credit to you for facing up to it. I just wonder if you might be able to do what I did when I was selling a Vintage bike a few years ago. There is a dealer not too far away that has a 'museum' display of classic bikes and specials in showroom condition. I asked if I could display the FB in his museum, and he was fine with it, for a 1% commission. That way it only gets seen by people who are interested in buying- why would they be in a shop otherwise? As it happens the bike sold for a good price before it got the the shop, but it might be worth a try. Your Yam special (sorry, I still use the older word!) at ten grand would look really reasonable next to a Β£25,000 998 Ducati, or a Β£17,000 Kawa 750 triple.

Hello mate Excuses mainly π Thereβs always something more important to do House move and the missus health are factors as well Sometime i use mine just to go and get something small from the shops etc. For me if my bike has been cleaned and has its best tank and panels on i also tend not to ride it just in case it gets dirty.
