going to have a look at a 96 XJR1200 tomorow,

guy rekons its all there and runs great, no reg or RWC.

its a 96 so if it was ever a repairiable W/O it wont need a VIV rite?

he's talking around the 2k mark, i know it all depends on condition

but what do u guys rekon? good price?

Depends on condition and mileage.

My 14 needs clocks and has a dent in the tank,
but its an 07 or 08, full Yoshi, Powercommander,
good tyres, chain, brakes, etc etc and was only
a few hundred more and isnt on an insurance list.

There's some good stuff about below 3K if you
have the cash, do your homework and wait.


If is registerable, and clean and tidy, and hasnt got
real bad damage or starship mileage, up to 2K sounds OK to me.

Not always the case with the WOVR. I've seen early 90's bike recently go through the auctions still on the list.....

From what I can gather so far they still show up on the list but don't need the viv????
I'll do a lot more homework before I go ahead, and according to the guy it's not on the list anyway.

I'll try and grab some pics and put them up tomorrow. And I'll do a vsr check on it.

NO!!!!! Not a good deal!
And a waste of an hour and a half driving to see a bike that had been dropped on both sides, cooling fins missing everywhere
Foot pegs missing, cans were fuked, the list went on and on....
