What is it worth????

Post by MikeyT »

Not particularly looking to sell the Storm, but just had a new rear tyre fitted at the local bike shoppy.
Anyway a regular customer, who has a Yam TRX at the moment is looking for Storm and asked if mine was for sale.
Which gets you thinking - how much and what else could I buy, it is a fairly well sorted storm, so opinions on how much you would ask.

X reg - 2000 bike, owned from new with 5,600 miles with stamped service book. Full tax and mot

Mods done:

Forks have been Rogered and Penske shock to Roger's spec
Stainless Hoses all round
SP1 master cylinder
Double bubble screen
Digi Gear Indicator
Moriwaki style colour match belly pan
Harris polished rear sets
Choice of standard, Remus Hi-level carbon or Moriwaki Rainbow titanium cans
Rear colour match undertray
Rear carbon hugger
New Pirelli Supa Corsa's
Gold link o ring chain and renthal sprocket (1 tooth less front)

Cheers all
Mick

:D I reckon you should get out more .... 5.6k mls in 4 years! :roll: That's a disgrace :!: You might as well sell the bike! What's your excuse? :lol: :lol:

Sounds like you have all the nice bits added. Shame to sell such great bike ... but then ... if you never get to use it.

No idea of price ... If your selling you're better off stripping the bike and sell in original state. You get more money for the trick bits when sold seperately.

Anybody else?

You're only going to get what someone is prepaired to pay you for it. I have had mine up for sale in MCN for two weeks and all I got was one email from a bloke that needed to sell his bike first :roll: and he offered me £450 less then I had advertised... There does seems to be a lot of people trying to shift these so I reckon you are going to have to advertise it dead cheap to get a sale :(

Mikey,
You will profit more from the bike if it was stock.As it is it is only worth whatever someone will pay for it if they like your mods.
Storms are getting harder to sell on due to the price of brand new ones being available for £4999 with full honda w'tee

If you search the threads i have put a couple of similar requests as yourself and got a good feedback.

Aftermarket goodies sell well on e'bay especially top quality exhausts. Do your sums on the parts and add about £3500 ish for the bike, then go and put the money towards an Sv1000s :wink:
