1990 851 value ?

phil_h · 29-Sep-2006, 20:01

Can anyone tell me what a good price for a 1990/G, 19887m 851 would be please. (non-uppy-downy-forks 16" front)
And if they are actually ok to ride, and/or how much it costs to sort them.
I could be tempted to make an another 'investment' !

Not too sure, probably reckon anywhere between £2500 - £3500 depnding on how good / bad nick its in. Just a guestimate, sure some of the other 851 / 888 bunch will be along soon to give pointers. Recall there have been a few guys on the board bought similar bikes in last year or so.

I paid £4k for my '92 888 about 18 months ago from a dealer in pretty much immaculate condition having had recent engine strip & rebuild.

Of all bikes I've had this ones a keeper,

Hi, I might be wrong but i think the"90 red 851 had 17" wheels.

yup the 90' bike had 17inchers alright - but this could be an 89 registered in 90 ? maybe

phil_h · 29-Sep-2006, 22:30

Actually, looking again at the pic of the bike in question, I think it does have 17inchers, which makes me happier. Dont know much about the non-uppy-downy-forks that were fitted then though.

A 1992 888? A SP4? Nice price!
Back on topic

The 89-90 models came standard with 17 inch wheels.
Only the Tricolore (strada) came with 16 inch wheels.
I have read some articles about those models and they were all positive of it.
Specially in comparison to the tricolore.
