748R Mk2 £16K ... gulp!

[NOODS]

Looked at a really nice low mileage 748R Mk 2 but IMO he wanted too much for it.. £17K..

I tried to persuade him to lower it but no.. He told me he had spoken to the Bike Specialist at Sheffield and they told him they sold one at the same price so of course i said so why didn’t they buy it off you then? We all know why..

Shame but hey! X

The world's gone mad.

So he's a private seller basing his prices on that lunatic asylum Good luck to him, walk away, he's in for a reality check.

Who the fuck would pay 17 k for a 748r? 7k maybe for a minter

Nothing good can come of arguing with an eBay seller.

It's his bike to do with as he wants, the market will dictate.

But he's mental.

Someone could ask him what he paid and when and point out it's the wrong colour for a 748R - did they actually make any in red

All 748s should be yellow , but yes, the Gen2 came in red

 

[NOODS]

Yellow is for those who chose to ride on the other side ...

You mean straight people GayLord don't you Red is a marketing ploy you fell for, just like all those new handbags you just 'have to buy'

Is the 748r MK1 and MK2 like the 749r ... where the MK1 was a proper one the the MK2 a marketing exercise in stickers etc.

Mk2 with Ohlins forks is the main difference

Mk2s fetch more money too

On the 749 that makes no sense... they were made of cheaper bits or am I wrong?

As a private sale, no warranty or come back, depending on condition and history when it’s actually viewed I’d say around 10.5. - 12 might be the right ball park.

Idoit.

Correct decision to walk away.

 

[Andyb]

You do it?

 

[sev]

hold out @NOODS he'll drop lower.
If sheffield thought it was such a great bike that was going to fly off the shelf then he'd have had them rip his arm off for it by now.

So first they said they sold the same one for 17k, then they tell him they'd have it up for 15.. yea.. ok son, whatever.
And they're selling the one linked above for 13.5, and that's from Sheffield who is a dealer, so I bet they'll take 13 for it. And if your man is thinking 2-3k markup then 10-11k seems about right as others have said.

last generation 748R was all about the engine internals, not so much with the outward bling, as most of the bike was going to get junked when it ran is ssk anyway.

 

[NOODS]

He must have got the message... withdrawn from sale on two platforms. Unless......... ?
