Agreed on the build quality comrade. When I test rode a CB the build quality is good, not as good as the SP I had but suppose that's hard to beat. Just little bits I notice when cleaning my bike and think to myself that wouldn't be like that if Honda made it, makes up in overall looks though.

Id have touched her up for a lot less than £200

Classified price : £5.5k
7k miles

Salisbury - miles away but one of the best at that price for a while

Cheers mate.

Mark - not sure if your pal is still looking but this minter is now on Ebay and its in Yorkshire : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CB1000- ... 3cfa9d174d" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Low miles - the bomb ! There might be some negotiation - I dont thinky ou'll push it down to 5k but maybe a good 2-3 off for cash ? - you'd get a stormer there ...

Hope it's useful....

Thanks for posting mate. Sorry I should have updated the thread, he's sorted now. He's bought a new GSR 750.

I believe that CB you posted in the link was first put on ebay about a month back for an absolute steal as a classified.
The current seller bought it and slapped over a grand on it lol. Nice bike though.

Glad he's sorted - the Suzuki 750s look quite tasty - hope he's enjoying it !
