possibly the cleanest and most original firestorm in the uk, is it worth the price tag?

and yes it has auto cct's and probably tyres that have seen better days... :lol:

Certainly a nice example. As a Honda enthusiast, I wonder if a person would actually pay more than 3,500 for it. Even then it's dear, but the mileage and condition keep the price up, but the fact of it being 31 years old should pull it down. I guess its true value would be reflected if it were up for auction rather than classified.

At 4,000 quid, we're getting into the lower-priced SP1 territory AND good 2004-5 Blades. I'll watch this with interest - but won't be competing with any of you guys to buy it!

here's the issue. if someone did stump up 4k for it, you'd be afraid to ride it, because it's value would decrease with mileage.
in that condition it's more of a museum piece.
I must be a sad person because I keep looking at how mint all the bolts are, dam Honda knew how to build quality back then,

All of the bikes from that dealer are overpriced, check out their other bikes.
They have some low mileage bikes, but not worth the money asked.

They have some great deals on ZQuiet but not worth the money asked.
Do you think they'll find a buyer at that price?
