What's it worth?

Decision time.
I'm really not using my little Vortx and looking at my schedule for the year I can't see any chance of track time or weekend jaunts being possible.

I need to get a rough idea of what it's worth.

RT+ (full inboard/rose jointed)
Yamaha R1 2003 5PW
Paddle shift
Powercommander
Raceleda calipers
Raceleda lightweight hubs
Lightweight caterham 13" alloys with R888s
Weighed in on the SVA scales at around 440kg

I did 600 miles in it last year, 200 this year.

Any ideas?

So 800 miles in total (ie any prev owners/users)

When was it built/SVA'd, when is it MOT due.

Might add to the "deal"

As its a toy why not keep it?

I did 900 miles in 10 years in my Striker and enjoyed all 4 engines and every mile of it

Must admit I'm wondering whether its worth keeping the bike for the same reason. Does about 500 miles a year, the weather and work lately is not bike freindly....

SVA'd in Jan '07 so it's not due an MOT till Jan '10

It's on an H plate
I built it and am the only registered owner.

I have considered keeping it but we have another toy that's as much fun but gets used more

Don't sell it Paul! You will regret it...

Yours was the first VortX I ever sat in... fond memories...

What a sad-sad day...
