For the record, I’m not agreeing with the article. I just posted it to stir the pot.
Seems that some used prices are rising unrealistically, and small capacity (especially L-plate-friendly) are ridiculous. I had only lowball offers on my GN125 last year but those people will still be waiting for a usable MOT-worthy bike to come up at breakers-spares price. Decided to keep it, it was worth more in parts than the offers I got anyway.
Probably if I listed it tomorrow I’d get more than it’s worth. If it was a scooter I’d be laughing.
