Looks pretty clean, but they are short on specifics in the text, not clear why they didn't state the actual mileage. At that price I would assume/hope the bodywork is all original. I'm sure there are a few of us who have put more than that into our bikes...they just don't look that nice. Thanks for sharing the link.
Not sure why this got locked... possibly a mistaken click by our new Mod?
Anyway, no problems with "overpriced" discussion, because personally I think it's a very relevant topic. As much as I love NSR's; dare I say, more than anyone, I think they are insanely overpriced! _________________ Andy.

Hi there just to let you know the Repsol sp in Farnham Honda was mine ,It has sold for close on the asking price, It was all original panels and paint it had done under 4 k miles , the tyres fluids and crank were all that had been changed, Its all to do with how original and genuine the bike is , So what ever you think about crazy prices, Dont go selling your immaculate 28 sp for silly money, They are only HOW MUCH if you havnt got one, all the best ,jonmac. _________________ John
I remember when "rhyshrc" paid £10k for his MC21 Rothmans about 10 years ago, and I thought that was insane! I struggle with the prices, and have done for many years. I've said it countless times before, what NSRs are worth and what people will pay for them are two very different things, in my personal opinion. I certainly don't begrudge Johnnymac getting that for the Repsol, but I bet that bike never sees tarmac again, and that's just sad. It's taking NSRs (and things like RC30s and original Fireblades) out of the hands of people who want to own them and ride them.
I'm currently facing my own moral dilemma regarding pricing, where I have a load of HRC parts, some of which are very rare, and some Honda NOS that I have come to the realisation I am never going to be able to make full use of. I never bought it all to speculate, I bought it with the best intentions, but now it's got to go.
Here's an example... The brand new MC18 barrels I have, I told RobH years ago he could have first shout on if I ever sell them, as he was the only person I knew at the time who was consistently putting miles on an '18... but what should I offer them for? I just looked up MC18 barrels on CMSNL, and a pair of barrels would sell for (if they had them) £1400. Fowlers had them listed at £848inc VAT each! You tell me... is that right? They used to be about £300 from Honda, and even taking inflation into account, those prices are hugely exaggerated. Is £500 for the pair of them fair, is £1000 fair? Technically, at £500 I'd lose money (taking inflation into account), so I feel cornered morally. _________________ Andy.
