I think £1000 pretty good, your get over 100,000 miles out of a Honda engine no troubles as long as you look after it, and then you can always shank in another engine when it goes pop.

Ontop of that you get the bigger tank.

i think its a very fair price for a late model bike, even with that mileage, i would buy a well looked after high mileage honda over a poorly looked after bike any day.
and even if the bike went bang, just stick another engine in it, it wouldn't effect the price. hell find some clocks with less mileage and you can guess the rest, i'm surprised a dodgy dealer hasn't already bought this :roll:

I reckon thats a good buy myself, for a bike with 2 owners to have covered them miles and look like it does it has to have been cared for, and chances are its been serviced regularly and not parked up for 5 months a year, i would buy it if i was still after one, and its a honda i dont see any reason why it wouldnt do that mileage again to be honest not like these engines are highly tuned

edit: just read the description 1300 would probably be nearer the mark with repaired fairings and needing chain an sprokets
