Hi it has done 23587 miles,and it is BLUE, and this it what else was said in the advert :-

If your not a fan of the exhaust note it also comes with the originals which have done next to no mileage.. The cans that are on it at the moment are a "1 of a kind" prototype from ART racing, there isn't another set the same.. The bike also has a k+n panel filter and a dynojet stage 1 jetting kit...

It has the best datatool alarm with two fobs (1 of them brand new) and two keys.. The bike is also data-tagged so if it was pinched they won't get far! also makes a drastic difference to insurance costs!

I have service history stamps at: 628 miles, 4449 miles, 9026 miles, 12869 miles and 20379 miles and obviously a service by my mechanic no more than 200 miles ago!.

Tyres are bridgestone battleax and have plenty of life, everything on this bike works as it should...

Generally it is in good condition but with it being 11 years old it has the odd mark on it...

hi mate it sounds ok
condition is more important than mileage as far as these bike are concerned. you could check to see if the k&n filter has been cleaned recently. depending on what you paid for it, it seems to be a decent bike.
i like this one,

i don't know what it will sell for but if it goes for between £1750 and £2000 someone will have bought a nice bike.
don't forget to post some pics of your bike when you get it fella......... :thumbup:

Hi Rod and welcome :) When you've picked it up, give me a shout if you fancy a ride out. I live just up the road in Kingston and I often pass Guilford on my rides out.
