the system you have is full Ti,the link you posted up looks like stainless (some say stainless is better as Ti can burn through). price a for a good akky system will be around £500.
I remember seeing this when i bought my one 2.5 months back - i did offer him £4k but he said no... and its still for sale.. lol Honda CBR 1000 RR 5 FIREBLADE | eBay
But that's what you can get for that sort of money. The 06/7 is a much better bike and feels more exciting - I would definatly ride one before you get another 05 but thats just me
but i hear what you are saying...should i even be doing what i am doing? just dont tell the wife.. lol
Just got back from Southend - 1 hour to get there and 1 hour to get back, wow what a ride! Bike was nice clean, apart from paint wear on the wheel...see pic.. Engine was quite, very quite!, no rattles knocks etc..having only 8000 miles on the clock with 2 owner. Only extra on the bike was the rear seat cowl & Double Bouble.. The clutch lever was squeaky - unsure what this means... Trade value for my bike is £3600 (according to the book) and he offered me £4500 because of all the exta's on my bike: Alarm, Datatag, Crash Bungs, Exhaust But he would not budge from his asking price of £5500 - so he wanted another £1000 from me... Also i realised i need a new tyres - as the front is very illegal.. so its actually £800 more + tyres £200.... So either i buy new tyres £220 and keep my bike, or i pay the £1000 get the Repsol with new tyres however end up spending little more for a slip on exhaust.. Thinking will i get my money back when it comes to sell the bike? Not sure what to doooo!!!!! have a night to think about it...
I would want that wheel refurbed by him (or £60 off the price) then he would have a deal I think. The Repsol looks much nicer than yours now I compare the two :-/
my 2ps worth bit overpriced that repsol for £5500 better buy, new tyres just been t&t 6090 miles private sale so make him an offer,guess it depends on how bad you wanna repsol but for me this is a better buy. HONDA CBR 1000 cc CBR1000RR-7 1000rr Fireblade
I would second that; too much money. That 06 I posted had 10k on the clock for well under 5 and he was offering px. Keep your eyes peeled for one like that that isn't sold
I recon this is your best bet: Fit Honda 04 05 CBR1000RR CBR 1000 RR 2004 2005 Fairing Kit ABS Plastics d26 PF | eBay How much is a tidy 06-07 going for lately then?
How much does original fairings cost from Honda? i have read paint chipping from the copies and that some can be a pain to fit..
Thats is nice...but i dont think he will budge on price..besides i would have to sell my bike first and i doubt it will sell for £4500 .. also saw this for £1000 more honda cbr1000rr 09 in Havant, Portsmouth | Motorbikes & Scooters for Sale | Gumtree.com
looking through the classifieds in ebay, RR6's start at £5k, some are lower but the cheapest bike is not usually the best one...i think you get what you pay for.. was ther a huge difference between the RR5 and RR6? personally i like the look of the RR5..
