Havent been about for a while as I moved on to an sp1 then an 04 blade but I'm selling the blade to raise some Â£Â£s for doing track days and I want a firestorm again.

I've been offerd one with 30k miles which needs a chain and sprockets, I dont know if the cct's have been done or what the service historys like , its px for my blade.

I've also seen a 8k mile nice example which a mate says I can have for Â£2k ( mint and standard apart from a small fairing scuff ).

so bearing in mind the chain and sprockets are gonna be about Â£100 whats the 30k mile 1999 firestorm worth ?

Assuming everything witht he bike is v.good, no issues and it has actually been serviced (despite whether stamped book or not), I'd say Â£1700 tops. Can only guess as with a bike of this age as it's value varies with each example, range might be 1200-1800 (you don't say what year it is). I wouldn't even pay that if the engine were making suspicious noises.
