I personally like the 1200s.I think it is a nice bike and no doubt all owwners of them on here are top blokes (judging by the ones I have met) BUT, at that price! the ad would not be misleading if it read "come and get rogered with a pogo stick" That is not one value for money sports twin unless Beyonce has owned it and ridden it down to the beach on a very hot day.
1 in 4? Maybe the "Off Chance" and in fairness we can find examples of any model that are perceived by the masses to be priced way OTT. A dealer may well get fortunate but it would almost certainly stick with a private seller.Herb wrote:It only takes one buyer though. The dealer probably stick their bikes on at a silly price for a few weeks, and maybe one in four times someone with more money than sense and too lazy to shop around makes a compulsive buy.
If no one buys, then they drop the price a bit. Nothing lost apart from some listing fees and a bit of space on the show room floor.
I paid £5.5K for mine against a ticket price of £8K from Pidcocks nearly 4 years ago. Someone can always make an offer.

Herb any chance I could use your negotiating skills ! 2.5K off the asking is some going.
I thought I had a good deal on mine when I traded in the SV1000s (I was happy with the deal) but nothing as good ad that, well done
