How much could i exspect to get for my haynes roadster bec if i were to sell it?
The engine is a 2008 gsxr1000 with 1,500 miles on the clocks. The car itself is all new the only second hand parts used were mx5 hubs+diff, steering column,front brakes. Everything else is new.
The car needs iva tested but needs a power commander and set up to pass the iva test.

i think the price is dramatically less if it's not on the road...
at a guess, and it is just a guess, i'd say probably around £3k ish as is?
on the road maybe up to £5k?

sounds like a good spec, so that'll help you out..
good luck!

Not what you want for it, with out an iva that is for sure.

i don't think it'll even be half that sadly...

whats with everyone selling up anyway?

they're all weak, i'm not selling until i've ground both my hands off, then i'll consider it.....

I realy wish i had never started this project and built a streetfighter bike instead.

what the hell is a street fighter bike!??!

A streetfighter bike is a choped up sports bike built to your own custom design (no iva needed) so you can do what you want to it.

A mobile road block if you're in a BEC on twisty roads!

^^ if your that close just bite the bullet and finish it if you can, like they all said you'll get alot more money for it when you do sell

besides you'll kick yourself if you go to all that effort and don't finish it....

Maybe one way to get your money back is to break the car and sell the bits. I for one would be interested in taking the engine off your hands :-)

I have a '97 blade sitting - with V5 !! needs forks and tank - otherwise seems straight and fine.. only 15 or 16k miles - can check as clocks etc all fine/intact :-)
