    Some service history up to 12000, so where has it all gone and how old was the bike when it reached 12k? TBH it has "STAY AWAY" written all over it IMO but each to there own.

    If it was cheap enough not to care about the faults then I would have a go but it's started too high for me.

    I missed the 04 that sold for £1800. Do you have a link for the 07 as I can't find it?

    Apart from the fact that you can't verify any big service has been done there's nowt really unusual about the bike or the price. £2.8k is only the starting bid.

    I got my RR7 eight months ago at least a grand cheaper then average because the dealer said most people consider its 32,000 mileage high. That's 4.5k miles a year which is high for most riders but in engine mileage it's f*** all.

    I'll struggle to put 3-4k miles a year on it even though I'd love to, it came with a 32k service, so I'm sorted for yonks. The engines feels and sounds as tight as you like.

    If you could confirm its been well serviced it's worth at least £3.5k not a lot more though, but that's the only problem with buying this one. Def' worth a look if you were fairly local.

    it's not the engine mileage thats the problem (for me at least),but if the bike hasn't been very very well looked after,it will be showing signs of corrosion+wear everywhere else.
