    I have a Honda Spada, red, 65,000km, going to sell with RWC, no rego, new rear tyre, fork seals and oil done, 2-seater at the moment (despite the LK7 mod plate). What's it worth? I'm asking $1700, is that fair? It's not restored, but it is a goer and fairly tidy, faded plastics and clocks, paint marked in places, the tank looks to have been repaired and now has cracks in the paint, some paint off the alloy frame and rust spots on the steel subframe, a few little pits in the fork chrome. Valve clearances checked. Thanks in advance for your responses. (In Yeppoon, that Rockhampton, QLD)

    That's an okay price to start off with since it comes with a RWC.

    hey Shane, Nice Spada mate :thumb_ups:

    As for resale values, I would have said about $1800 - $2300 with rego depending on condition and around the $1300 - $1600 mark without.

    That's a nice looking example.

    Thanks for the feedback. I have dropped it to $1500, but I might just register it, ride it, let some get their licence, and then sell it. Cashflow may determine the final result.

    From the photos I think $1800 is a fair price - especially with a RWC

    When was it last rego'd is a big thing, if you wouldn't ride it on the road it may take the person who buys it a bit more than they are expecting to get it there. I'd rego it and rie it a bit than you can at least tell them pro's and con's about what you discover.
