Cheapest Bike You've Seen?

[lawrence567]

Curiosity really,

What's the cheapest running & road legal bike you've seen anywhere,
new or used doesnt matter.

Lets say 125cc upwards.
I've seen some on ebay for 600-750...

& it doesnt include the 0% finance deal.
OTR price!

Yamaha XJ600. 1991. Tax and test til OCT.

It cost me £550. Perfect first bike i say. Doesn't matter if i drop it and i can learn how they work, I'll have to learn how it works! It runs fine, but the battery is a bit dodgy. Not complaining.

My local dealer has a tatty 96 sr125 12 months t&t for £400.

My new honda xl 125 clone brand new is costing me £740 on the road, delivered and taxed etc

No cigar for me but My '96 CB500 has cost me just over £600 with a good MOT etc and genuine 28k on the clock and without spelling doom, the engine is perhaps the quietest, rattle-free engined bike i have ever owned. It sounds like an electric motor!!

And considering it has about 1/3 of my TL's power its a surprisingly great street bike..
Just need to change some of the bolt-ons someone has put on it as it looks half way between a despatch riders bike and something the local vicar would ride

those chinese scooters are about £599 OTR with tax!

My wife bought a second hand chinese scooter for £50 this time last year.

It needed the steering lock sorted and has a cracked panel following an attempted theft, but £50!

Starts first time, every time, never misses a beat and does 40 mph; fantastic!
