Time to go (bike,not the wife)

[BigAlan]

I have decided.

Purchased new by me Sep 1st 2011, serviced every 4K miles, new PR4GT tyres fitted, fender extender, Kawasaki sat nav bracket, radiator guard, skidmarx hugger, "blue" extended rear fender from Canada, R&G engine bars, panniers, top box and a lovely Top Sellerie seat, all these extras I am leaving on and will include a Beauwolf exhaust but not the carbon one fitted now, laminar lip and spare screen.

The bike is as you would expect, reliable and the best bike I have ever had by far.

MOT tomorrow so will start for a year from Sep 1st, 31k miles all done by my good self.

In Oxford.

£5950     PM me if interested, otherwise it's off to the dealer.

Al
Just to let you know that I got £5,900 for mine px.
It had 36 on the clock.
That was the glasses guide price.
It went in to them completely standard, which is how they wanted it from me.
They said that they would accept £6,500 for it although it'll be in the window for a bit more than that.
So if anyone is interested in buying yours they will have a great bike at trade price.
If not, you may consider pxing depending on what you have got planned.
Good luck
Barry

Hiya Al, like stickyone I would also be inclined to remove as many of the fitted accessories as you can as dealers don't really want that on P/X bikes and then you can make a few quid selling them separately.

What bike have you decided to go for ?  something completely different ?

Good luck with the sale mate

Funny how  the dealer says wants a standard bike , so take off all the bits that everybody on this forum then goes and puts on , I would sooner have a bike with all the mods done a lot cheaper that way ,,

[BigAlan]

If anybody I know wants the bike they can have the lot, if I end up at the dealers then I shall be removing all the stuff and will post it here.

What am I getting, well it's no secret that I like the Ducati Multistrada S with the touring pack on it, I did fancy the Pikes Peak version but could not justify the £3.5k just for the Ohlins suspension so I shall have the electronic "skyhook" instead.

It's taller than than the GTR, lighter so easier for this old guy to walk around with.

Let's hope you won't have to "walk" around with it too much Alan     

I'm sure you will like the new 'un, and enjoy lots of smiley miles with it too     

What colour will you choose, Red or Grey ? 

[nightrider]

I had a look at the Ducati , but the service prices put me off £800-1200 for a major one , the gtr is so easy to do yourself, it will be a great bike to  :biker3:ride ,, I sometimes think about changing the gtr , but then take it for a blast and soon Change my mind ,,  , but good luck with the sale ,,

if it's a Ducati, it's gotta be red

Its gonna be a flying machine Alan, bags of power and much less weight

White is what I want, I have a mate who can dip parts to make them look like carbon fibre so might get a bit of it done like that.

Had one guy message me already, let's see how interested he is.

Water transfer (hydrographics)  is the way to go....bloody awesome...maybe that's what you were referring to

I don't have the original, I let it go a year or so ago as it was so heavy the rafters in my garage loft were straining to hold it up. There available on eBay at a reasonable cost if you prefer the "spud launcher" style.
