Auction value of stat write-off 07 ZX10

photomike666 · Post by **photomike666** » Sat Oct 01, 2011 2:49 pm

Having never purchased from an auction, I need som advice from those who have.

I've seen an 07 ZX10 at auction, left side damage and a nice dint in the frame (looks to be a small round impact). The dint is the only reason for the write off, and cosmetically it isn't that bad! Registered 02/07 and has 10,500Km.

I'm thinking an update to my trackbike, and a few lower K parts for my current 07 Zx10 (with 40,000km).

But what are they worth once written off? I've seen a lower Km 07 for $9K in great condition, but have no idea what to plan for in the auction.

All help appreciated.

Snared my 08 zx6r with 9000km front, rear and tank damage for $4500 at auction.

Bit like ebay,if you want it bad enough just keep bidding if you only have a certain amount you are willing to spend stick to your guns and dont go over that limit.Dont forget most auction occur a 10% fee on top of final bid and you may also have to pay gst,so in reality you are paying 20% of purchase price.good luck

Mike, just some food for thought : I'm in the process of bringing in a race frame from overseas, and plan to rebuild the bike around it next Autumn / Winter. That being the case, I'll have a complianced undamaged (albeit paint-marked) frame available at that time - possibly of interest if you want to put the write-off back on the road ?

Cheers,
Brian

Doesn't mean they sold it for that figure . Its pretty tough to sell a bike at the moment . Just a thought .
