Good 748 for £3k ?

couchcommando · 01-Apr-2006, 10:33

If I were looking for a good standard (termis excepted) 748 would I find one for £3k ?
Most of them I see aren't standard, the owners seem to have raided the anodised catalogues or the polishing catalogues and even the paint catalogues and ruined a beautiful bike and then want more for it LOL
So where do I find a mint standard 748 ? Model doesn't worry me but the condition does

You won't really mate. You'll get a decentish one for that... but you'll be hard pushed to find a minter.

Have i inspired you then ?

It's either one of them or a VF1000R that I have found local and cheap....LOL

oh dear!

You worry me sometimes Tony. Get an 800ss. They're a hoot.

You will struggle to get a decent 748 for 3k. Go 1500 higher and you might get an S which is nice.

What about a Superlight.....

Fantastic bike, great handling and you will get a minter for about 3k

Just a thought

Good point - I like SL's. Classy stuff.

They are around -- I bought this for £1500 last year..it ran a bit rough but just needed a bloody good service and a new air temp sensor (£30!)
