    @twin - Good deal or expensive bike?

    My search for an @twin contiues - unfotunately I have to p/x my kawasaki zx6r with a dealer to afford one! But thank you to those on this site offering me theirs.

    Anyway Ive found on in a dealer - black, 18K on the clock, W plate (2000), good cond, full service and MOT, and big screen - £3,600.

    Does that seem about right for a dealer? Or bloomin expensive? The p/x offer for mine was a bit 'low' but Imsure I can bargain with him.

    i think that seems a bit high particularly when i know a dealer over hear selling a 2000 in mint condition for £3000.

    Is it worth me having a holiday to ireland and a tour of dealers?

    Actually I might just check out some dealers in your neck of the woods - ive seen some of your posts before about cheaper bikes........

    Cheers

    Cheers Simon, that would be great - if they're cheaper then I'l price up ferries etc and make a holiday of it!

    Ive just been contacted by a dealer - 2003, with top box, silver, 3k on the clock - £3975. Hmmmmm.

    This kinda makes the first one look dear, especially if this guy's prepared to haggle a few hundred quid, don't think you'll find many newer than this
