    Guesing @ £4,500 £5000. All the nice extras add up, but mine was 4500 with half that mileage. I'd tend to think also that the aftermarket fairing is a cheap crash fix, mine is...lol. mine also had tail tidy, crash bungs, asv levers, braided front lines.

    I reckon £4000. Mileage is a turn off for most buyers, and it is a buyers market. Keep it and ride it till it dies.

    I have an 05 with 31,000 miles and was thinking on the lines of just over £3000 if I sell it. The best way to look at it if you have that kind of mileage is all the fun you've had on it. Much better than getting a good price for a bike that's been sat in the garage with low mileage.
    I'd also take the Akra off and sell it separately....... just my opinion mate.

    Best bet is to have a gander through MCN, that'll give you some idea.

    I would say some where between 3.5 - 4k max due to high miles and after market fairings will alarm most people so probably the lower end

    Well i'm aarently miles off then. Thought it might be worth a bit more, even considering the after market panels. When I was looking, in December, I couldnt find anything less than 5k. :eek: saying that, it IS a repsol. :)

    Use this to upload pics, and post links here..

    I have had no calls for my RR5 with 15k on the clock – standard but with Alarm and Datatab + Bungs & New Tyres

    Up for £4250

    Think it’s a color thing!

    Also noticed you have a after market fairing - most would think this is due to an accident or fall...


    You may be better of stripping and selling the parts and the bike cheap...

    I would be interested in the PC & Exhaust

    Its very different when you are actually looking to buy a blade..when your not looking everything seems cheap..its only when you get out there and you realise what it actually is like

    Yep, they are a great bike and at the end of the day, the mileage isn't bad. They are designed to run and run. I am thinking of changing my RR5 which is currently on 17k, but it goes so well, i think i will hang on for 12 months.

    My 05 Blade has 41,000 miles on the clock and still goes like a gud un. No service history, hate getting ripped off by garages just checking nuts and bolts and changing the oil. I can do all that myself. I Change the oil and filter once a year and I've had the valve clearances checked, must've saved a fortune! Do the maths, nearly £200 each service every 4000 miles. If I lost a grand selling it without a service history I'm quids in!
