As the title says, add up how much you have spent on your current bike, not including repairs or servicing or consumables, just trick add ons for looks or performance plus the cost of the bike....

Eh patent pending would refer to it being a design or prototype of somekind, surely it would be copyright being a word or name...lol

I was refering to the way they go, pretty much any bike over 750 goes like a missile these days....

12k is a good sum for a bike with that spec, its amazing how quick the price can go through the roof if let it and its soooo easy to do that.

Bought my FJ1200 in 95 for 2680
Panniers in 96 for 450

If I sold it on eBay now without panniers I recon I would get about 500 pounds as its high mileage. Cheep motoring in my books. ;)

When parts wear out I usually replace them with up rated items. How you calculate that I don’t know :-/
