    There is an '06 Raven R1 in Bombay with a dealer. He's asking for 6.5L. You should be able to get it for less than that. Its done 2000 odd kms.

        Usually avoid commenting on Pre-Owned bikes,but in this case the Motorcycle in question was previously owned by our client and was a 06' Raven Black machine before it met with an accident.The motorcycle was put-together in 2007 and got its new paint scheme and "golden" alloys[Pic Attached].






        All said and done, it cannot be said that the Dealer is Cheating/Duping any interested party as shocking as it seems this is the plight of an average 3-4 year old SBK in India.They are showed-off when they are New,Tricked when their next improved variants hit the market,then finally undergo a chain of Abuse until they need a complete overhaul and makeover.And guess what??they still don't get OEM replacement parts just reconditioned/Duplicate/Imitation parts.

        Calling All SBK owners to show a little more Love&Care towards your Steeds not only when they are New&Hyped but also when they get Outdated,Old and drab.After all, your Bike is WHO YOU ARE.

          are those exhaust pipes taken from the MV Agusta??
          Those people who tell you not to take chances
          They are all missing on what life is about
          You only live once so take hold of the chance
          Don't end up like others the same song and dance

            See, I knew they had something to hide and on top are asking for too much for the bike even if it isn't an accident bike. You can go tell them to shove it now that you know its history.

            @Motorbreath - Those are "Laser Extreme" exhausts.

                  You're located in Dehradun, time to knock on Navpreet's pm inbox! I'm sure he's be able to hook you up with something you'd be happy with.

                      Its very difficult to find a good second hand bike if you don't have contacts.It has been very difficult for me because in my city there is just a mode of transport nothing else.I heard that the Suzuki big bike dealer in Delhi deals in second hand bikes also.Maybe he can arrange one for you.
