Hi All,

What would a mint 1981 R80G/S (with Dakar conversion) fetch these days?:augie
Inclusive:-
Jim Cray Gas flowed & twin plugged
Ohlins rear

Curiosity only..

Regards
 
Pictures would help, being an 81 it could never get away as a genuine 80 g/s PD so hard to value, to be honest market for mono's is pretty good having looked at some of the recent sales on EBay.

Mileage?
UK Bike?
Owners?
 
Pictures?

Will do once I figure out how to resize & attach..(there are some on the site somewhere..):blast

Originally UK bike (26K)
28K at present ( need to use more)
Owners I think three but a bit irrelevant as completely rebuilt ( inc. gearbox)

I confess bit of a trophy bike..off for a spin as wet my appetite..:bounce1

Forgot..

High compressions pistons

(great torque & goes like stink..)
 
Ohlins, rebuild and dakar tank really devalue a nice original bike - it means sheps offer is a bit high - I'd take his arm off if I were you?
:bow
 
Realistaically it is worth what someone is prepared to pay.

I think the engine mods devalue it personally. if I had the cash I'd be looking to go to around £4000 ish

Some people are paying stupid money, but for a non original bike, the value is less than if it was a standard original dakar:thumb
 
Send it to Oz, following recent sales you would probably get 8000 quid :eek It is miles better than anything that has been advertised here :thumb2

Wow 12 posts before the first serious response :)

I agrree with flipfly, the low mileage if it can be proved to be genuine might push it up a bit further towards £4,500+.
 
Hi cbi, you havent used it much in the 4 yrs since I said
guess it wont depreciate like the adv and 1200. :D
 
Making a point of using it now..

(took time for my two boys to grow up a bit ( age 5 & 3):beerjug:
 
£ 3400, not bad I guess for an original but still a bit scruffy bike.The PD is a nice bike but hasn't had the brakes done despite some mild engine mods.Brakes were marginal on these bikes from new so a faster one really needs better stopping power.I've ended up on top of more than one roundabout when loaded up,after failing to get the thing stopped.Made me laugh at the time but could've been serious.:)
 
Too dear imho, there are better bikes around for less than that.

Ebayitus strikes again :D

That was a £2800 - £3000 bike at the most.......but whilst there are muppets who will pay the money, I suppose that's what the bikes are worth :blast:blast:blast
