1000ss motor on eBay - I wish but, the price!
 
1000ss motor

Just the job for slotting in my 800 for Thunderbikes between minitwin races....but, the price seems a bit eye-watering to me.

I've been waiting for one to come up for ages, but there's no way I'd pay anything like that! :o Would consider going up to about £1k complete so it looks like I'm going to be waiting a while... :lol:

I'm not sure it's even any use without the clocks as well.

But conversely, they sold me the deep brace ally swing-arm for £30 which, I thought was a bargain. Go figure.

It should run quite happily with an FIM ecu. Unfortunately that pushes the cost to £2000!

You bought a 1000DS swingarm for £30!???? :o B*stard!

I did. That's 3 I have now :D

Two spares for racing in case they get bent. Like rocking horse droppings they are.

that's well over priced.
I got a 996 lump with loom and injectors for a £1000
may be worth contacting them with a offer, as I will be surprised if anyone bids on it

They ain't gonna knock off about 800 quid tho'. Are they?

I reckon it's worth about £800-£900 tops.

I'd say that's about right, depending on what the score is with clocks/keys. Given what they sell swingarms for I'd say they'd bite your arm off! :lol:

Got to be worth making them an offer .... what's the worse they can say, "No"

I've picked up quite a few bargains by offering what I thought something was worth rather than offering the high asking price.
