Not sure which category to put this so excuse me if its in the wrong place...
Seen an immaculate k2 up for sale last night on ebay and looks mint and been looking for months for an immaculate k2 to join my blue k3 so opinions would good on to  what its worth genuinely paying for it.

It looks mint condition to me :onya:

I'd still try and view it before throwing too many ££'s at it though. Photo's just might have been taken years ago...Buyer Beware!

4 previous owners and such a low mileage, you pommes must be hen pecked  :stir:

I'm not too good at pricing to be honest.
I paid £5100 for my K7 6 years ago from a dealer with 5000 miles on the clocks. They do seem to be holding their prices well at the moment.
If I was buying it I'd probably go to £4500 tops.

If I was looking for a k2 and came across one as good as this looks(obviously I'd view it first),I'd be happy to pay 5 thou for it.it all boils down to what you are prepared to pay at the end of the day,,,,if you really want it,.?

I'd say it's worth a bit more than they ate asking but beware of a bike with a few owners and such a low mileage as that can be worse than high mileage if it's been left sitting for long periods of time .
Check service history and ask for as much paperwork as you can see receipt ECT.
My r/b k5 was low mileage and is I great bike (Not so low mileage anymore) but the tyres were very old and even tho loads if tread were dangerous in the wet .
the fuel filter was full of crap due to its sitting but generally in good condition .
It would need a full service and fluids changing along with checking if the age of the tyres.
Then make your offer for the bike .

only a slightly modified gsx1400
oh and a standard one too

My K5 was 11 years old with just 2K on it when I bought it with FSH - as Steve pointed out tyres were like rock with no grip , apart from that no problems. Guess I would pay between £4500 and £5000 for that K2  :)..must check and see if I can get 2 in my garage without Mrs Notty noticing !!  :rofl2:

5k tops is what I thought it was worth,it does look in very nice condition and had a look at the mot history and some yrs it hardly moved in 12 months what a waste

Irish in Oz

I'm still trying to get my head around valuation between Oz and UK. Yesterday lovely FJR 2004 with 8 thousand miles for 5495 GBP, then I look back and payed that in Oz for a 2007 GSX1400 in 2009 with 2500 miles.
My 14 in Oz has about 55,000 miles on it, well maintained and never race or rallied. What would it be worth in Straya.

Mine's insured for $6K (they reduced it this year - I must argue that) but owes me more of course.
I bought it for IIRC $8,5K with akro, pcIII, givi topbox etc etc and about 67K kms on the clock which was a fair price then, for what it was.

Hi Gixerkid

                       Just to add to your dilemma  :whistling:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/suzuki-gsx-1400/264064935082?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649


When i was looking for a 14 a K2 was my preferred choice too, however i got persuaded with a K3 in the end.
Still always room for one more!  :rolleyes:

Good luck  :onya:
