Just saw my old motorbike on ebay for £5k. Considering I sold it for £650 2 months ago and even when I first brought it in 2003 it as only £3k

Huh dont get it? Looking at the ad, my question would be why did you sell it for £650?

650 quid
Let me guess - some one told you modified bikes arent worth much
You are joking right?

wish i had know it was only £650 would of been tempted myself
That is nature of business - an item is only worth as much as the buyer will pay and the seller accepts.
It is also sunny now which will add at least 20 % to bikes, convertibles and kit cars.
Can't say I think it is work 5 big ones, probably around 2.
I see boobies 
(sorry, not a very productive comment)
£4995???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!
Good luck is all I have to say. If he gets £2000 for it I'll be surprised.....
Not my thing at all, but I can appreciate the work in it, £650 is nearer the mark than £5k from my view.

Very difficult to price... for me it's in the high hundreds to low teens.
No doubting that a lot of time / money went into it though.
OT but...
WTF is going on with that silencer on the silencer?

Hmmm Looks nice, perhaps I will offer him £650
Did The current owner pay £650 for it, and was it in this condition with those Mods on it when you sold it for £650?.
Just curious.
Yes the bike was in the same condition when I sold it. The odd exhaust can was put on by the guy who built the bike as the full race Cobra system was "very restrictive"....hmmmm. Some people will believe anything the're told. I'm glad it's gone as i've got my garage back but pitty the poor sod who may well cough up close to that price, on the back of a creative discription, for something that could be built with a much better finish for less than half that.
