    Sorry Boomer, but your lips are brown.

    Just cause someone lists a price doesn't mean he wants people saying it's too much. Almost all of the listings on this site are too expensive, but it's just plain rude to comment. On the internet, we lose touch with manners.

    Why are they valid, because you say so? They may be, but they may not. But something is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Someone may want a RSV-R with all those goodies, might like the '05 colour scheme (better than the naff '06 by a looooong way), doesn't have to muck around getting the thing dyno'd, tally the cost of it all and say it's all good value.

    I can think of many senior members on this site that have been asking silly prices, for bikes without this amount of bling, and nobody said a thing! One day you'll sell a bike here, and you'll want a "fair suck of the sav" yourself.

    Maybe he's fair game because of his post count, but he's not likely to even stick around and continue reading this site if this keeps up.
    Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.

    No offence taken. Constructive comments are helpful, I'm not a dealer so welcome advice!

    But one question for those saying extras aren't worth anything:

    Two bikes, same model, year, km's etc.

    One is stock
    One has aftermarket cans, power commander, dark screen or whatever extras you want to consider but is maybe a grand more and in your budget.

    Which would you pick?

    This is a loaded question I know. Different things suit different people but I bet the majority would pay the extra for the bling!

    I don't consider that as rude or lack of manners; i'd say the same thing to someones face; maybe its my up bringing or lack thereof

    Still.. good luck with the sale mate.

    If I was selling my car on the side of the road, had an interested buyer looking at it, and someone else was loitering around saying "sheez mate, price is a bit steep!...you know you can get that cheaper somewhere else"...

    I think I'd be a bit pissed.

    Thanks Boomer. No issues.

    I'm amazed at the amount of interest! Supposedly there's no such thing as bad advertising.

    At least the comments are keeping it at the top of the thread list which is good!

    I must retract this statement as I've just found out that this particular '05 is a '05-'06 model as opposed to a 04-05 model!! This obviously changes it's apparent value somewhat
    My bad but without pic's I assumed...my bad mate!
    I do suggest that clarifying this detail would help others not balls it up
    Good luck with the sale

    Ok. To clarify.

    This is an 05/06 RSVR Factory. I.e. the one prior to the gold frame and, in many eyes, a lot nicer than the current model.

    I'll update the starting post as well.

    The magazines seem to think the 06 (same as an 05/06??) is a kick arse bike, measurably better than the earlier model) and this one is still in its warranty which is a bonus. I'm glad I don't have to choose between this with the bling and a brand new one!!
