I need to know how much a bike is worth, as it's not listed on the parkers site, if anyone can find out it would be very handy,
my cousin has got a red/white GSX-R 750 on a 'H' REG sitting in his garage doing nothing, all it needs is a service, new fork seals & a leak from the fuel outlet on the tank needs sorting. apart from that theres nothing wrong with it and he wants me to make an offer but i have no idea what it's worth & nor does he. if i can get it for a good price i'll buy for the track. reckon it will make a quality track tool!
if anyone can find out id appreciate it.

'94 on an L plate is listed at £880 for private poor condition.

I would say with a few minor defects and no MOT, it has to be under the poor price, there is a good chance it will want other bits if its been stood, service?, wheel bearings?, head bearings?, chain & sprockets?, tyres?, and I think there were significant impovements between H and L, I would suggest offering him £500.

£1000/£1500 depending on condition mot etc and if the owner sees it as a old sports bike or a collectors item , maybe withe faults etc make n offerr just under the £1000 mark

sorted, having a look at it properly sat, & my cousin said he wants no where near a grand for it, he said an offer in the 500 region.

yeah hopefully, that'll do me nicely for my first track bike, cant wait to get on a track.
havent done one before and didnt want to risk my pride & joy so thought this would be a better route to go down.
cheers for the help mate
