Advice please

As previously said, if a potential owner can't see that's a solid well looked after bike then they are just tyre kickers or dreamers, it's worth every penny of £5000.

[Notty]

well, now 700 views !!! omg must be so bad, I have cherished and loved the bike for 10 years, and you guys have always been there. yes, my upgrades are my choice as Barmy says but at £3800 a bargain FFS ...

I think prospective buyers may be a bit dubious because of the price, it's too low for a bike that's as good as yours is, so there must be something wrong with it if he's selling it that cheap.  If it were me, I'd either raise the price to 5k (or more) or close that ad and make a new one with a higher starting price, with 'reasonable offers also considered' in it.   Sure wouldn't put that in the ad that has 3800 on it.

Started price at £5k but after 10 days and 300 views with no calls  dropped it - still no calls so trade price 
My M8 has 4 bikes for sale , his Honda Sp1 has had 2500 views and although its priced at £2.5k below dealers price no callers., his MT01 1800 views and same.

I'd pause the ad and repost later.

Another tip would be to use Chat gpt or an AI to rewrite the ad

@Notty if I purchase it can I leave it in your garage ? 🙏

[Notty]

It's gone.980 views on auto trader and just one call - my mods weren't to anyone else's taste I reckon.
£3800 a steal
Sad day

Sad day Mate. Turn the page,never look back.That Ducati I sold 15 yrs ago for $8g, today maybe $35g.Just how it is.

[Daytona]

Sad times nitty,,we've all sold bikes in the past and regretted it but me selling mine was the most regrettable..I've consoled myself by accepting I'm not getting any younger (67 and rheumatoid arthritis) plus not got a corner of the garage to shove it in..but believe me,if I still had my very large garage it would definitely still be here...

[GSXKING]

😪😪😪 sad day indeed @ Notty.
Those pictures show just how beautifully you'd cared for her. ❤️❤️❤️
You'll be right mate your new ride will give you even more pleasure 🙏🙏🙏👍👍

£3,800 is £1,050 more than I paid for the Bloo Thing. It's nice to see them at more sensible prices tbh. They're only old Jap stuff and as great as they are they'll never be classic, nothing Jap ever is.

hmm, wish that logic applied. Would love to have an original Nissan Skyline R32 or R34 GT-R. They were 150k new, now worth well north of 350k....

[Hooli]

It works for me, I'll never pay over the odds for old Jap stuff.

My bike is a dungger by comparison to yours @Notty.
I wash it once a year even if it doesn't need it.
Has never let me down ever.

At some stage I will deregister it and park it at the back of the garage with a shrine around it. I've never owned anything this long.   

[Eric GSX1400K3]

Shame Notty, but hey, onwards and upwards, looking forward to hearing about your new bike mate.
