Col... ..... I've been looking for a 996R for a while and there are a few around, the one at P&H is too much money in my opinion..... I'm sure its a straight bike and all will check out OK, but its a lot of money for a 996R. For that price you can get a 998R (not as good as a 996R in my opinion), but is worth more money. P&H have had that R for a long time, there have been a few guys on here looking at it - I don't suppose they are dropping the price at all either. I think it owes them a lot of money. Having looked at a few 996Rs and read-up about 998Rs, (and taken much excellent advice from this board) for a typical bike (lowish mileage, excellent condition) you should look to pay about £11.5K - £12.5K for a 996R and £13.5K - £14.5K for a 998R. If its higher or lower mileage and condition is different then these prices may vary slightly. I think Pro-Twins have just got a 996R in, again too much money, but may be worth checking out. At the P&H price, it'll still be there for a while, so take your time and be sure!!! Tim |
