To sell or not to sell

(1/3) > >>

Green1:
Hi all just been offered £7500 for my green k1.  :-\  I would like to keep it for at least a year and cover at least a thousand mile on it but now I can't decide weather to sell or not.
 

hairygit:
That does seem to be a very good offer ;D What you need to work out is what it owes you, and how attached you are to it. After all, heaven forbid, but you may get hit by an uninsured driver, or the bike get stolen in the meantime, and insurance companies HATE having to pay out even agreed values :'( I know K1's are quite scarce, but rarely have I seen them priced that high, I'd probably take his hand off and look for a project as winter is upon us!, But that is me, only YOU can decide the ultimate answer to your question!

Bitsa (Ralph Wright - RIP):
Agree with hairygit that's a hell of an offer but how many times have you sold things and then regret it.If you keep it a bit longer will they offer you more with age as long as you keep it in mint condition.Over to you your choice.On another thyme a frenchman offered me a k1 totally in bits under a pile of wood 6 inches of crap on it engine in box's that I could not see and he would not accept less than 2 grand for it.I told him to walk with a jerk.
Cheers
Bitsa

Hi hairygit my problem is I get far to attached to any bike or car that I have ever owned and always regret selling them.My pegaso hasn't worked properly for years and my Triumph now refuses to start at all but I still can't part with them.I sold my cd250u for £600 more than what I paid for it and still regret it nearly every day.I already have another 750k1 in bits lined up for a winter project but haven't had the time to do anything with it and now i'm looking at buying another one  ;D I may have to see someone about it before I run out off room and money

UK Pete:
Thats a tough one, you will probably regret either way, glad to see k1's increasing in value, i struggle to get rid of anybike and usually just buy another
