When they were new

[KiwiCol]

Anyone remember how much a brand new 14 cost back in the day?  I know they'd have gone up with the K2 - K7, but be interested in comparing the original price with what a good one goes for today.

Thinking the price to buy one has probably increased over the years.

my k2 was ex demo bike 6 months old got it for £5800 in 2002
our 2 k6's should have been £6400 brand new but we got the pair for £12000
there the only ones we got new.

K6 a k7 £6495 ,but they sold them at £6000 cos nobody wanted them then,,dealer round my area just sold a k6 fe for £7,500

[Andre]

Paid over 9k € (14k Aussie $, 7.9k GBP) for new in 2002. Paid 3.8k for K2 10 months ago.

Paid £2300  (17500mls)  in 2013

On one of the best known bike-sale sites in Germany. 51 14s to have in the range 3000-7150 € with a good selection (about 1/3) in the 4500-5500 € range. Asking prices of cause. My feel is that prices have gone up a little. The price topper of 21k+ €  with a side car not included.

2005 new K5 cost 15490€. 
2013 my K2 cost 5300€ ( 63 000 km).

2013 my K2 cost 5300€ ( 63 000 km).

Why so much new (taxes)?

My K7 Black from Springwood Suzuki rode away brand new $12,000 in March 2007

[Snapey]

$14225 from Action Suzuki on the 19th December 2001 and that was the best price in Sydney because the B/W's were hard to get.

@ andre
Yes, taxes!! Everything is expensive here in North pole.
I found that price 15490€ from catalogue number 1/05 of Bike magazine.
And my K2 was the cheapest 14 in country in 2013, only I was able to buy.

Thanks for the input guys, looks like Aussie & NZ have a way to go yet to be up with the original price.  North Pole area, never gonna happen! Over 15 thousand euro!

They'll go up a fair bit eventually, especially ORIGINAL ones (unmodified)

In 155 years time we'll think back "oh bugger I used to have one off those, should never have sold it".

Well some of you will. I'm not selling mine (even if it isn't original) :D.
