Does £8500 seem cheap?

[YamR1V64motion]

for an 07 Ducati 1098 with 5000 miles?, was going to get a new CBR 600 RR but not sure now.

[SpydieNut]

sounds cheap to me

and no,it's not my bike

[Conian]

Suspiciously cheap! Where is it?

[996 sps]

That is cheapish, highish mileage though for year so may deem about right.

[phillvr6]

Seems a fair price to me given the mileage and time ofd year.

theres 3 cheap ones on Biketrader, one was £7500 but had been stuffed, the next one was the one i mentioned and was £8750 not £8500, my apologies, and the next one was £8995 from a dealer and it looks to have Termis on it but doesnt list the milage, i really dont know what to do though, i got my insurance cheque today and definatly want to buy a bike now, firstly because its cheaper and secondly i want to put a stop to any silly thoughts of not buying a bike and getting a Range Rover now instead of next year, but now i cant decide wether to get a new 600RR or put in more money and get a used 1098 help!! .

[hellsbuddha]

depends on what you are using the bike for.

If its just a weekend plaything the 1098

If its more of a workhouse - commuting etc - 600RR or the 750suz

Gotta be a 1098...go test ride one, im sure that will help you make your mind up..

[slim_boy_fat]

Sounds about the right price for the 1098.

If it was my choice it would be the Ducati.

Sorry, but for me it would be the R/R for winter. I'd then be looking around April time for a new bike when prices may have dropped further due to new reg.

Boring I know, but how much are you actually going to use the 1098 over winter ?

[YamR1V64motion]

i wont be using whichever one i buy over winter much, i just want to get one now to save money, i do really like the Ducati but it is extra expense and i want to do some track days so maybe the RR might be the best bet?.

You want to buy a car or bike which you won't use to save money

[YamR1V64motion]

theres some great slightly used bike going for really good money for th time of year, seems no point in hanging on for prices to go up again, i will ride it a bit over the winter, when its dry and the gritters havent been out anyway.
