    Just in case anyone is thinking about buying a track bike, or wants a damaged repairable late model road bike, I will be selling a CBR600RR in the coming days.

    Its either a 2010 or 2011 bike; cant remember. It has approx 700 miles on the clock. Some of the fairings have scuff marks & the brake lever, bar end & one footpeg is missing but otherwise its fine.

    I suspect it will be cheap.

    It belonged to a friend who fell off shortly after passing his test; it hasnt been ridden since.

    I will post more details soon; its being dropped off at my house tonight.

    Just a heads up. :)

    This was its pre-accident condition:

    Looks like it with the bronze calipers

    Yes, abs model. It is an official UK bike; brand new in 2011. At first glance, damage is very light. Will take pics tomorrow.

    This is a genuine sale on behalf of a good lad.

    It is not subject to an insurance claim & no finance is owing.

    Don't know yet Col; I need to have a proper weigh up of the damage.

    The going rate for a minter with these miles is around £6k.

    It will go out to the best offer, either on here or eBay.

    Ok I take it that the bike has 7000 miles on it and not 700 then?

    If thats the case then you are looking around the £4k mark depending on the actual full damage.

    You should get decent money for it then if it only has 700 miles on it.

    When you get the chance mate and I understand it may be a while, stick up some pics for us to see the damage.

    Okay fellas, some photos.

    The bike will ride with replacement brake levers & footpeg. The fairings are scuffed up but repairable, with the exception of the nose cone which will need replacement. One mirror is broken, the other is fine; both removed at present.

    Currently fitted with a double bubble screen & Akrapovic exhaust, but these will be replaced with the Oem items & made available separately.

    Mileage is 722. HPI clear.

    Will go on eBay next week if no interest here.

    Offers over £3500.

    PM for my mobile number if you want to talk.

    That is very little damage mate, and it would cost very little to fix up.
    A second hand nose cone, side fairing(or respray) a few bits and pieces like a brake lever, footrest, indicator, and respray the swingarm.
