    image.jpeg thinking of selling my bonneville. Got it as a non running bike. It had been left outside and hadn't moved in three years. I've spent a lot of time and Money on this but it still has carb issues. Lumpy at the bottom end. I've only been running it for two weeks and not done a lot of miles on it so it might clear itself out after a few tanks of fuel. I've decided I'm not spending anymore on it as its getting to the stage of me putting in more than it's ever going to be worth. It's done 17.5k. Putting it on here to see if there's any interest in it. image.jpeg

    Open to offers but with the money and time I've put into it I'd be looking for about £3000

    Fair price, I'm looking for a cheap hack just to tear to bits for a build idea...

    It's a nice bike with potential to be really nice but I've not got the money or experience to get it where I'd like it to be.

    Just to give you an idea on prices, when I bought my 2010 T100 Efi back in april 2011 I paid £4200 for it. It had 2000 mls on the clock and a separate set of "saucy" pipes.

    As a result I reckon you'll be lucky to sell an 11 yr old bike that doesn't run properly and has 17500mls , for £3000.

    Nice bike. Think that's a good price. Especially since it's the last of the carb models. Does have potential to be really nice. Tank has a good colour scheme.

    But this isn't the last of the carb bikes. Carbs moved over to F.I. in 2008/9 if I remember correctly?

    2008 is the year I think Dave, 2009 for the US market.

    I thought they went to EFI in 06. Oh well. It's still a nice bike

    Yeah thanks. It is nice. I've spent a bit on it.
    New fork tubes , new headlight , rear shocks , new bars , chain and sprockets, service pack, bar end mirrors, front mudguard and the tank and carbs are coming off and getting a good clean out. Hopefully that will sort out the running problem!

    If you want to sell the back shocks let me know, cant see it hitting the value of the bike too much..
