s2r or better

[Jontifosi]

Low miles, service history, as new as loss in Portsmouth and £2800
Money burnin in a hole

[DrD]

You'll be very lucky to get a good S2R for that - they seem to be about £1000 more

[Darren69]

Yeah, thats 900 sort of money.

This one looks nice though.

You may get an S4 for that sort of money. Its up to you to decide which is better S2 or S4 :)

Too bloody right!

[Jontifosi]

Unlikely at that sort of money IMO

[Jontifosi]

cash waiting

[m40uke]

Standard or custom

[gary tompkins]

You'll wait for ever on that budget. Average price for a good clean low miles S2R800 is around 4 grand.

They actually fetch better money secondhand than the newer M696, 2V 900's and S4's

You may find high mileage money pit or a damaged/repairable for £2800

[Darren69]

Yeah, prices going up a little bit I think, 3500 should get you a nice S4/S2 but you could pay that for an original '93/94 M900!

[Ian-cm]

I've got to be honest I think the other posts are correct and you will just not find decent examples of s2r's at that sort of money. I've been looking for one sine September last year and privately your looking at least £3000 for good s4's £3500 for decent s2r's. Dealers are charging at least £4000 for early examples and more for later bikes especially with extra's

Probably goes to show how good they are to command that price since local dealers here are asking the same money for street triples and the odd street triple R and bit more could get you a 696/796 or a ktm superduke.

My s2r1000 went for about 25% more than you budget recently. That had 16k miles but a lot of recent work. As said above you might find a higher mileage one for that but I would strongly suggest trying to get one in good condition with solid history. You will be better off in the long run.

I'm sure I have seen them go for your sort of money though so if you are patient you might get lucky :thumbsup:

[Funkatronic]

i have seen plenty of nice s2r800 sell for around 3k

[steeevvvooo]

There you go, confirmation :) I was thinking about Funk when I wrote that as I remember your one selling for around that area if i'm not mistaken?

Be patient and you will find one

[Jontifosi]

cheers all
I've given up finding one quickly and realise if i get one i'll be looking after it and not out in this constant wet weather. For now and buying a CBR to tide me over, not my first choice but i know the owner and its tidy and hardly been used. Selling my Vespa too so there's some comitment.

I'll take my time but please if anyone see something nice, let me know...

[jarv]

Any good?...........

Looks lovely - anyone in scotland want to check it out for me?

[Dave G]

While thats not far from me this one may be closer and is no reserve so may come within your budget

[Darren69]

That one does look nice.

[steeevvvooo]

Looks nice! As ever though, factor in the cost if a full service with belts and valve clearances if it hasnt been used much recently (and at that mileage it sounds like it). Worst case then you can get it freshly serviced yourself.

[sapone cremoso]

Yea sold mine for 2400, did have 43 on the clock mind

[Darren69]

I know its not an S2 but this looks pretty decent for the money.

I have a 2006 S2R 800 Red / white only 600 miles from new and is as new tucked away.

[Allan]

I have a 2006 S2R 800 Red / white only 600 miles from new and is as new tucked away in my garage and a 1100 Evo Anniversary 0 miles never ridden by anyone and can't decide which one to sell as neither could be replaced but one must go ??

[Jontifosi]

How much is the s2r Allan?

[Allan]

I am just trying to decide which one to sell at the moment and thought I would see what the response was like, but in all honesty I bought the 1100 evo to replace the S2r but standing them side by side and thinking through the pro's and con's I don't think I can part with the S2r.
I will have to decide over the next 3-4 weeks but neither will be sold cheap just to get rid as I would never be able to replace either one !

[Dirty]

I thought I was a low mileage rider!

[Jontifosi]

keep the sr2 in the bedroom

Kinky!!! :shocked:

[Davefridge]

I have an '05 S2R that I am thinking of selling. Its red with white stripe & white wheels. Immaculate & used in summer only. Stored for last 2 years. 7209 miles. Standard apart from carbon hugger and Silmoto de-cat exhaust system. Its had a new battery & speedo. Tyres are good.
Still interested?

[steeevvvooo]

I think he's bought a (lovely looking) 695 now

[Davefridge]

Thanks for info

[gus860]

I have a nice red and white s2r 1000, but I would want a bit more than that for it
