06 bike prices

[julianb]

Just flicking through MCN, and can't believe the pocket money prices that 06 bikes can be purchased for. Under 5 and a half K for a brand new 06 CBR600RR!!! I need to have a lay down. I paid £7299 for mine in July...

That's nothing. I paid £7200 for mine in Feb, and it's worth about £3.50 now!!

I paid £7300 for mine in May and wrote it offer 5 weeks later. Have spent the last 9 weeks trying to get as much money as possible out of the insurance. Ended up getting £6150. Bloody good job i did not have all of it on finance.....

4 Wheels!

I broke my shoulder and had to have a operation to staple the bone back together. I have only just started driving and the accident was 24th June. It will be at least another 12 weeks before i get decent movement of my arm and that is with physio.

The fact that i can off when i wasn't playing silly buggers scares me even more, i could have understood it if i was doing something stupid. Also i have got an 18 month old daughter that i want to see grow up. I think maybe get a track bike in a couple of years.

I thought about a Griff or Chim but the cost of insurance and running made me decide to go down the Westie, Tiger route.

Gave up fishing when i was about 12 years old. Now it is beer, cars, golf (when shoulder working) and women....
