The link just takes me to auto trader buddy, not to the specific bike

Looks like an honest bike from what I could see,a few sensible mods and no glaring evidence of any past history.

Service history sounds good if that means a lot to you.

Not sure how good the price is tbh,probably a fair bit of wriggle room there I would think.

As an example I bought a much tattier 2009 T with minimal history for £2900,remember it's 10 years old by now and very outdated technology to.

If it was me I'd haggle that asking price down or walk away.

Bear in mind they are trade so will be asking the absolute maximum they think they can get

Think it was my phone having a fit.... .
It does look pretty clean and it's got a few nice bits included , the price seems about right from a dealer and in comparison to others on sale for the same age/condition/mileage etc so it's certainly not a bad deal, i'd be tempted to maybe try and find a later version (Ian, can you remember the engine number point of the bikes with the upgraded stator?)with the upgraded stator if I'm honest though (not that you shouldn't buy the earlier ones, it's just something less to worry about).

Found this one in Doncaster for example, although it doesn't say much about history etc, it is low mileage (assuming it's genuine) and I'd be pretty certain it's got the upgraded stator.

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/122269336928

Welcome along mate. I think if it was me I'd be looking at a 2009/10 bike for that price. In comparison I got my 2009 18 months ago with scorpion cans, Ohlins rear shock and steering damper and lots of other bits for £4200 and had 5k on the clock. That was a private sale though not through a dealer. Regarding the stator I believe they were changed after engine number 8176929. A lot of good deals on this bikes at the moment so worth shopping around. Good luck

Might be able to get the price down on this one a bit and it's in the fastest colour
