I'm writing this with a heavy heart but unfortubately my 11 month old RSV has to go. :bawling
Unfortunately my financial circumstances have significantly changed and so all my expendable assets, of which the RSV is one, are coming in to play.
I don't use the bike for commuting etc so it's just a toy really and in truth it hardly ever gets used but it's costing me £125 a month before I put fuel in it or anything. It may not sound like much to spend a month but it all adds up. I'm devastated to see it go but it's just got to be done sadly.
So here goes: it's a 2008 only white RSVR1000 on a 58 plate. It's currently got 1490 miles on it and is genuinely in as new mint condition with full service history and all other appropriate documentation etc. It currently has 13 months of the transferable factory warranty remaining and also comes with a pair of unused mint standard cans and a set of titanium "E" marked Akros with removable baffles which are also in perfect.
I really have looked after it and it's in A1 condition and I've never had any issues with either brakes (even the back brake has always worked fine amazingly) or the clutch and none have ever needed bleeding or any attention at all.
The only fly(s) in the oitment are that the tax runs out at the end of August and it needs it's second service (the cheaper of the two) in November. With regard to the tax if I still have it when it runs out I'll stick 6 months on it or I will knock off the price of a years tax, whichever the buyer prefers. In addition I'll also be paying off the outstanding finance on my credit card very shortly before I sell it and I will also provide proof of this to the buyer.
I've checked out Biketrader etc and it seems that £5995 o.n.o is a fair starting price for mine and so I'll take it from there and see what happens. If anyone's interested or knows someone who is, P.M me and we can have a chat. Failing that it'll be appearing in Biketrader sometime next month. Gutted.
