YOUR OPINIONS (DT 125 FOR SALE!)
-
Hi again guys i am buying another dtr 125 and are thinking of selling my other dtr ,it`s a offroad bike that runs great and is very fast the only downside is the previous owner sprayed all the panels white and the frame orange and tank orange ,what would you guys say would be a sensible price to sell a 1988 dtr for.

cyber is that vinyl carbon fibre decals on your bike ,if so could you link me where they are from please.
@stobbsie It's carbon vinyl wrap, which I fitted myself, covering the panels, I then stuck decals on top of it to get that look. I got the wrap off ebay;
And various decals from ebay as well too.

@stobbsie You would most likely be looking at getting your money back at best. So I would advertise it for a bit more and see what offers you receive. Personally if you resprayed the panels black and tidied up the bike a bit, you would probably get more for it. As black & orange is more appealing than white & orange IMHO. But it's the age old conundrum of spend a bit to get more, or just sell it as is???
SEDUCED BY THE DARK SIDE!!!

i was just testing the water as they say,i may keep it respray the plastics as i have a spare mint condition black frame i also have a spare engine and a few fairings laying around .
I was thinking maybe put my money into 1 bike rather than 2 but the white and orange runs amazing and has zero rust apart from on the discs and a few bolts, never re sprayed farings before but these would need sanding or something before spraying but i have seen videos on youtube where ppl have been using a aerosol paint stripper where after applying they just wash off with water hose and plastics look ok -

New panels aren't that expensive, you'd amazed at what a fresh set will do to the look of the bike.
Just because it's orange and black, it shouldn't put you off sorting it out.

Im located in south yorkshire declan, as for the plastics where they havent sprayed underneath ,they look pretty good you can see they were all black before.
Been looking on the internet for plastics but all i can find is used ones or the odd panel new ,I did come across a guy in portugal that sells full sets for £130.
