    Question NSR 250 Value

    As you may know NSR250's are getting pretty rare nowadays, and I was wondering, will my TYGA body kit have an adverse efect on the value of my bike?

    I do know that some bodykits become classic items themselves but should I sell my bike and get an original replica?

    Your thoughts...

    Won't have much of an effect mate. In all honesty, a big question regarding cutom kits and paint jobs is, "Has it been crashed?"

    I sold my NSR250SP for just over $6k about a year ago.
    Had a custom fairings/tank, but also included the original Pentax fairings/tank in virtually perfect condition. Bike had usual mods, including HPC coated Dogfight R's.
    As long as they are tidy and run well, most people have no idea how to spot a shitter.....but Sniper's right about the crashed part

    Yeah i miss the smell, also being able to scream into a bend and slam it down a heap of gears without locking the rear.....
    Plus the sound of the dry clutch was enough to deafen young children
    I was doing my restricted licence on it, and the examiner asked me to pull over. An old lady was walking past and heard my clutch rattling she knocked me on the helmet and told me something was wrong with my bike

    Maybe, what kind of donut? And when was the last time the piggy had a rebuild? Would also consider identity swap + your GSXR400
