    Triumph Street Triple 675 with Arrow Exhaust

    I'm selling my pride and joy so I don't have to keep the ACC coffers full and to buy a bike to race instead.
    Comes with complete Arrow Exhaust system which cost $3000 fitted as well as the original system in a box.
    Rear wheel hugger.
    Crash bungs.
    Screen.
    In great condition, well cared for.
    Absolutely amazing bike to ride, especially with the Arrow fitted, great handling, keeps up with the bigger bikes through the twisties.
    Had a market valuation done and is valued at $14700
    Would consider a ZXR400, CBR400, FZR400 or a VFR400(NC30) suitable for Pre-89 class or F3 racing.
    Make me an offer, will consider serious offers over $13000

    Mate, that must feel like selling one of your balls.

    A tough ask. (You sure it's an '07?)

    Yea it has taken me weeks to get the courage to make the decision to sell. If it doesn't sell I won't be too gutted. If it does sell it will take me ages to get over it, it's been the best bike I've ever owned.
    Yep definitely an '07.

    Wow Paul, you really have got the racing bug!! Can't say I haven't flirted with the idea of selling my road bike to fund racing another bike but I know I'd miss being able to just go for a ride whenever I felt like it, plus I love the CBR too much!!

    Good luck with the sale. You could race 2 more bikes with that much dosh! Just don't make your bucket any faster!!

    Unfortunately most of the money will be going on the mortgage and whats left is going towards another race bike. I don't want to pay Nick Smith any more money than I have too with rego's for over 600cc bikes getting ridiculous as well as the insurance premiums.
    I will miss it heaps but the enjoyment from racing will make up for it.

    Just quietly I'd be inclined to pop the stock pipes back on and sell the Arrow system on Trademe seperately for a grand or so .............


    Nice bike.

    Hi Allan, I have considered that, but feel that the bike without the Arrow is probably only worth about 11,500 to $12,000 and then would still need to sell the Arrow exhaust for at least $1000 to $1500 to make it worthwhile, which I wonder if someone would buy it, even for that price(the Arrow that is).

    Yes. I can give you $8k tommorrow!

    Have you put it on trademe? If you have add the link to your OP. Put up pics, add some more description. Advertise it a bit more.

    I'm guessing winter time isn't a very good time of year to try and sell a bike? Especially in the South Island.
