Matt-Man Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Evening all, been a while since I’ve posted so for those that remember some of the old-timers hello... When’s the next party? Anyway, I’ve been offered a basket case 1100, engine and frame are a matched pair, the rest of it is an amalgamation of slabby stuff. my question to you guys is what’s its worth these days? Im told the motor is half decent and will only need servicing. (That old Chestnut eh!) Quote Link to comment
clivegto Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Hi Matt, next party will be at Stafford bike show this weekend. Slabby engines have started to fetch silly money because of classic racing. But saying that I bought a good one this year for £450. Same with frames people want silly money for them but there are still bargains to be had, sounds like you found one. Quote Link to comment
baldrick Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 id pay no more than 1500, given that its a non runner, but im a tight c*nt. if all the bodywork is there , that will save you tons of grief. Quote Link to comment

I reckon the value of the motors is going to drop now its widely acceptable to use bandit motors Quote Link to comment

Rules allow bandit motors now, so 1052 motors have no premium. Quote Link to comment
