    I have a 2005 t100 and I'm thinking of selling it. It's done 18k. I got the bike as a non runner. It had been left outside for three years and needed lots of work. I've spent money on it and got it on the road. I use it everyday( weather permitting) but it still has carb issues. Its lumpy at the bottom end and still need some Work. I'd like advice about selling it. Like ,What I should be asking for it and the best places to advertise it. Any help would be great
    Thanks

    Well it looks ok! Usual places MCN, eBay, auto trader! Look on those sights to get a rough price guide. Or if you're getting another look at trading it in.

    Have you thought about having the carbs sonically cleaned and balanced. Mine have just been done. Cost varies but mine were £65 for cleaning and balancing

    Thanks for the help. Not had them sonically cleaned but had them sitting in acetone for a while to try and clean them. Didn't work. Might need to find somewhere that does it and give it a try.
