Value of a Divvy 6 with 44k. Prolly for TOG.

First of all will people buy a bike with this kind of milage at all? I
wouldn't and I know it's a good un + that Divvies go on forever!

Secondly if it is worth cash of any kind is £1200 quid a realistic
*asking* [1] price for:

Yamaha XJ600S Diversion,
1994/M,
Met Green,
44000 dry miles,
2 Owners,
10 Mths MOT,
Garaged from new,
All Service Receipts,
Givi Rack,
Motad Nexxus

It's mint except for needing a new rear tyre.

I'm asking 'cos it's been in a couple of local papers (London) with no
response. I don't know if dropping the *asking* price to 1k is the
answer or advertising more widely.

If the feeling is it's worth less than 1k I'll just keep it - it's too
good to chop out for peanuts.

BTW don't really want to sell it via this site so this aint an ad. [2]

[1] I know I'll be coming down a bit - would drop to 1k.
[2] It would be like selling to a mate - I'd be terrified the f**king
thing would blow up and create bad feeling.

 

Create bad feeling?

In UKRM?

Seems unlikely.

 

eh? So how many wet or underwater miles has it done?

 

Feeling [1]

In UKRM

Impossible

[1] Any kind of feeling.

Thanks TOG.

Where would you recomend I advertise this to best reach my target
market of people with 995 who want to buy high mileage Divvies?

 

Its not a good time to try and sell a bike - I'm rtying to as well and
a guy I know who does motorcycle training has commented on how slow
the market is.

Both would help [price drop/advertise more widely] but I would make
sure you have completely exhausted all the freebie ads just outside
your immediate area first.

But in turn, does that not make it a good time to buy? I'd like to
swap my FJR for a 'busa but none for sale down this way as far as I
can see.

 

Loot, MCN, Ebay.

 

Thnaks to all!
