650 Kat my way in Norfolk

Post by Uncle Bob » Mon Oct 15, 2018 8:57 am

It's in Norfolk and it's a Katana so double overpriced!

Looking at close up images it isn't that brilliant, certainly not a 2 grand bike.

Didn't sell, what a surprise.
Reduced to £1795 or Make an Offer. the more I look at that one the more I think it's a sub £1000 bike.

It was definitely overpriced, but all the recent ebay ones from 400 to 750 have been reduced.
That said looking at it closely , it comes with MOT ,though I haven't seen a conti tour tyre on a bike for at least 10 years! :lol:
Braided hoses, half decent 4-1 as in not a motad , seat obviously recovered but not that bad .......should be orange/black though, overall seems honest , could be worth £1350 ish being realistic.

Let him sweat though getting dark and damp now prices drop ! :P

£750-800 max. In fact no....I wouldn't even buy it at that. It looks like it's had all its katana blood drained away.

I just noticed it has different pattern wheels on it, not the usual snowflake type or the later "3 spoke" type.

Agree with Nicky though on price.

Are those wheels from another variant of the 650?
