    Well I'm considering changing my Sprint ST 955 for a newer model. I reckon I'd get somewhere around £600-£700 for it - its a 1999 in red, average nick, no service history, new(ish) Michelin tyres, heated grips and has.......113000 on the clock. Still goes well though. What do people think? Am I being realistic or not with the price?

    Worth that all day long. If I had the cash spare I would have it. That is one bike that will be a classic. And why they discontinued the model amazes me.

    Although I would get more for breaking it I haven't really got the space (plus OH would be less than happy). I've attached a few pics to show the old girl in all her glory(!). If I get a lot of interest in spares then I might be persuaded to break her.

    No you're not sticking your oar in! I was thinking I'll have to break it but not sure where to list - Ebay/Gumtree/Autotrader.. FB Marketplace!

    Bugger, I would have had the right hand plastics off you - like hens teeth. Ended up getting rid of my 32,500 mile 99 Sprint for £500 to an Ebay seller having sold odd bits for £100 myself. I did keep the panniers though, just to store stuff in.
