hughandjen Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I am thinking of selling my cota 247 and don't know what to ask. It has had a full engine rebuild with new bearings, piston and rebore. Also has had rear wheel rebuild and new tyres. New Amal carb. It is road registered and MOTD. Looks a bit tatty but mechanically Excellant. What is it worth Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanorbust Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 A 247 isn't a popular bike in the twinshock class, although I ride one myself, as it's probably seen as a bit outdated when stacked against Fantics and Majestys. As such a good one, I'd say, should be able to fetch £1200/1300 and I'd pitch it at £1500/1600 for starters, after spending a couple of hours smartening it up a bit. I've noticed restored ones failing to make that money recently. That said, twinshocks are a rising market and you could get lucky... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
