Currently got a varadero 125.. but wanting a faster, more city styled bike for london... saw quite a nice 99 reg CB400 with 21,000 miles on the clock, japanese import... they want about 1,800 quid for it.. anyone want to say whether thats a good deal or not? and if they'd recommend the bike for a lot of inner city work? cheers |

regarding price i can't really help you as i'm not in UK but i would definately recommend them for city use....
The 99 should be the VTEC model |

That much money get's you a good CBR600. I wouldn't pay it. That's not to say the bike's aren't good, though. |
WWW.HONDACB1.CO.NR + NC29 swingarm ('29 wheels soon), Quill T3 Ti, lots of black, blade rear hangers, beet rearsets, brembo brake. Top mods: BT45's, touring screen & rack with 50L box! Stolen recovered, scumbags best not try again. |

what kind of money do you think its worth then?
its between something like this or a fully faired bike like a transalp or something... but, you seem to get more for your money with naked bikes... |

the fun thing about naked bikes is that they're generally very sensible commuters with the ability to turn into born again rebels with the flick of the wrist.

thats prob 21000 kilometres as a pose to miles.........13000miles, 99 vtech engine.....its prob worth that money if u ask me. personally tho i would steer clear of the v-tech model and go for a nice PB-1 and pick it up for about £900-£1200 max. Seeby |

nah, it was 36,000 km :) or something like that, it worked out to 21,000 miles... didn't go for it in the end as they wouldn't take mine as part exchange and i don't have any money till i sell it, who knows might still be for sale when i get some cash together... cheers for all the advice though.. |
