    Topic Approved.

    Papers - this is the foremost thing which comes to my mind. You wouldn't want to shell out big money and then stuck with the papers. Do check them out carefully, and only then think of getting the machine.

            7K on the odo
            2003 bike
            Something fishy.
            And remember digital meters CAN also be tampered.
            So, proceed with caution.

            Anyways, the price by me would be around 35% cheaper than what he bought it for.

              Its a 2003 Bike...and the Resale value will be as low as 50% of its original price.

              Here the buyer has upper hand not the seller.

                Buddy, its run just 7K.
                50% is too much depriciation.

                  In resale market...Product make year is more important than the mileage it has done. 50% above is the cost and all above is profit.

                      If I were him, I would never give this at 2 L.

                      I would be surprised if the dealing is anywhere under 3L.

                        i seriously doubt the papers are clean...
                        but at 2 lac... it's prolly still worth it.

                        are u selling ur comet?

                          hi sri, i just want to point out one thing. Before the xbhp server crashed, there was a guy who also wanted to buy the exact same back. is this bike based in chennai ?? there was a thread running too but it got deleted because of the server crash. That bike of which i am talking about had a bad crash. i hope it is not the same bike . Anyways, as you said it is your friend's bike and is clean, then close the deal if it comes in your budget.

                          all the very best and if you get it then take care of the beast

                          ride safe
