    Toying with the idea of selling my Yamaha FZ1N. Most who know me will know the bike. Had a new Hagon rear shock/belly pan/Renntec sportsrack/coil packs. Has a Yamaha gel seat, heated grips, Remus Okami exhaust, Baglux tank cover and bags, tail tidy, etc. Still runs as sweet as the day I bought it, back in June '07. But it now has 61500 miles on the clock. The cheapest I've found on the net is £3500, but that has 30000 miles on it. So what do you reckon it's worth? Sensible answers please...

    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    Was the "sensible answers please" bit lost in translation?

    Mark - I suspect the extras you've had fitted recently counteract the mileage so looking online I'd say perhaps £3500-£3700?

    I'm sure its a great bike but I reckon the mileage is going to really put most buyers off.

    Riders have a 2007 which they cant shift and thats only done 36k. It looks nice, FSH, lots of bits etc - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2007-YAMAH...item460a507b0e

    No bids even starting at £2,500.

    The trouble is their are lots of much lower mileage bikes about.

    Put it on Ebay with a reserve of what you would take for it and keep your fingers crossed.

    I would think you'd get around £3k for it.

    I'll swap for a GS with only 43k on the clock.....
