Jim R Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 Hi Guys, just after a bit of advice really. I've got an 06 r6 with 43000 miles on the clock and I was looking at selling up for a R1. However, I was offered £1000 in p/x! It has more money than that on in accessories! Can any one confirm that is about right? Am i kidding myself that its worth more? The bike is in excellent condition with Gilles stuff all over it, carbon everything, Akra exhaust with de-cated stainless headers, braided hoses, Galfer discs all round and power commander. Thanks for your input Jim

Thanks for your input Jim Well you can see it from the dealers view, the mileage means that it will have to be priced quite low to move it off of the shop floor - they may even move it straight on, as they maybe dubious of comebacks at that mileage (go on autotrader and look at the number of small dealers who specialise in big-dealership trade-ins which have bigger miles on them). Also take a look on evilbay at some of the high-mileage bikes (and cars) and look at the money they seem to fetch (auction fever?) As it is tidy, with lots of bits surely a private sale would be better - as it is only 5 years old, i bet you'd get a decent price if you sold it yourself. Either as a useable higher mileage machine or as a very sorted track bike. Me, i'd stick it on the bay following all the usual safety rules with a £1800 reserve. HTH
