Am planning to buy a CBR1000, 2004 done about 4.5k on the clock. The seller (an individual not a dealer) is quoting me 700k and not willing to negotiate at all. Personally, I feel its a bit too much and the bike should be in the 5.5 - 6 range. However, the owners logic for the high price is that the bike's got strong paperwork i.e. imported through TR (so no duty evaded) and done very little and also got a brand new pair of wheels (corsa's). My questions are
a) Is the price right?
b) Can I get the bike transfered to my name as more than 2yrs?
C) Can the machine be insured?
d) Could there be a catch? Is there something in particular I need to look out for in the machine?
Saw the machine cpl of months ago and seemed in good condition. Although am gonna get it checked professionally again and also the paperwork, I am just so blinded by the beauty right now that cant think rationally (am sure some of you would understand) so looking for some objective advice as the money involved is too much.
700k still looks cheap when compared with 11.16 for a R1.
Gracias..................!


But, on first glance, '700,000' does seem a little steep for a 2004 1000RR.
caz it's a gray market import & if u dont have Invoice RTO prople will decide the value of that bike as per there calculation for octroy(dont no abt delhi is there any octroy charges). I would also suggest to show that bike to any good mach
for 4 year old model
