Price to set my bike at??

**NOMIS** · 8th June 2008, 18:50

Just wondering what price would people think I could get for my hornet.
And be reasonable im not out there to sell it as a bargin you sell things at top dollar unless your thick don't yah.

14000 km , 2 new tyres ( $600 )
mods - Exhaust banzai racing x 2 have got silencers made ( cheers warren )
- carbon fiber rear guard and knee inserts
- after market rear seat have to be seen cant explain it.
- k7 gixxer headlight
- Bar ends

Pics in my profile in photo album if people wana nosey .

Reason im thinking about selling this as i had my we accident as some no... ( only cosmetic damage ) and every thing is all brand new, not a thing wrong with it just thinking about something a little diff now.

So any proper advice would be good.

Oh crap btw its a 2001 honda hornet will have new reg when i pick it up from the painters, and has a wof for 5 months. not a thing with it and it goes bloody well for a 250, and people under estimate the hornets.

Wait until Spring - you'll get more.

Search Trademe and Motorcycle trader - the 250 Hornys go for pretty good dollar and a newbie will be goo-ga over your mods.

That is the pissiest little bike to be called a hornet that I know of. WTF?! The previous models are so so so much better : http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-145014816.htm

No wonder he's selling them for 5, they look like a damn Scorpio, and probably ride like one too.

Thats not a hornet!

Thats a fancy GN with water cooling that is!

Ah, im looking for a bandit now for my first bike, but hornetts are sorta similar i guess... Im a newbie. Ive seen hornetts around on trademe, always around 5k which is such a rip in my opinion so id never pay anything around that. My budgets pretty tight but in saying that id pay probably 3.5k - 4k? but then again your mods... and im stingy

Nup, it's still air-cooled, and makes less horsies than a GN IIRC.

haha yeh what year are they tho, I no what you mean but ui payed more than 4k to begin with when it had dones 9000km, and it was mint back then to .. its just even more so now . Dont see many hornets around with the stainless exhaust either

It's worth more than 4k easy. Here are some trademe links for ones which dealers are selling. Also the last one is a private sale.
