Don't worry Graham .. we will get there in the end with fixing your CDI ... Plan to do a write up on here about it and probably bore the pants off everyone. I will be over at your gaffe after we visit friends probs next weekend.
Nearly 3 grand.....Love the description of a 2007 bike as being actually able to start and run. Damn well should do. Passed my test in the mod 80's and considered a 10 year old bike as nearly new. This was the sort of stock you would see down the local backstreet dealer and being used by ordinary folk who couldn't afford finance. £1500 sounds spot on for a daily commuter.
At the end of the day they will only sell it for the amount a buyer is willing to pay otherwise it will just sit in their showroom.
