[QUOTE="kerry, post: 179302, member: 3981"] I agree with Carl, however, A good matching numbers with an up to date certificate will always be easy to sell when you no longer need it, one without will not be as a friend of mine has found out, a nice bike that did come from the spares company as a non matching bike. Personally I think best to buy a non matching bike at the moment as long as it is a big saving his was not. What worries me is obvious re stamps or even worse ground off engine numbers, were they stolen at some point ? To get back to Martin who is looking for a bike, again check with Simon first before buying. My advice buy a non matching if good mechanically at under £30,000 or you lose money on selling, or a matching good one at £35000, KXM77 that failed to reach it's reserve was then offered at around this figure yesterday by the auction house. I saw this bike yesterday and did ride it, I was worried by a few things but these were sorted I am told last night so a genuine all matching completely restored with proof from crank upwards can today be bought at around £35000. Prices are dropping so don't rush, the spares Company now has workshops checking sale bikes first so a good place to consider but with prices dropping best to haggle a bit. Kerry [/QUOTE]
