How much do you think I sould pay for it, the guy said it its running really well, but might need new rear shocks. Thanks in advance!! Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!!

thebaron Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I just rang him, He is looking for £600, is that too much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilc0 Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 600 is its scrap value. Then new tyres/inners, chain and sprocs, etc etc etc your moving into a grand plus. £250 to £300 max for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebaron Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) Hi All, The Guy Said he would'nt take any less than £350? I know its a bike I dont see very often, is it worth a chance? My plan would be to do it up to a reasonable standard, Paint it etc and have a bit of fun then sell it on. Any help would be much appreciated!! Thanks Edited March 11, 2012 by thebaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reginald Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 That would be about $521 Australian dollars.....Id get three . reasons 1. i love SWMs; 2. it would be perfect for my 15year old daughter; 3. make a 200cc replica - very cool and very handy; 4. running gear seems similar to my tL 320S [bottom end too?????] so its good for spares.
