Hi guys, I'm having to think about selling my DT and before I decide to put her up for sale I just wanted to ask some of you your opinion on her value and how much interest there is possibly.
She's taxed until April 2015 and MOT until May 2015, She's done just over 20000 miles and had a top end rebuild at around 15000, new front tyre and front sprocket and I brought a Giannelli exhaust system to replace the BigOne systen she had. Other then that I've just tidied her up and have only had her just over a year but circumstances have caused me to have to consider selling, love her to bits but and am trying still to find alternatives still. I also have a Tank decal to put on.
Thanks for the comments guys. The year of the bike is 97 and yeah been lurking on the forums since I got the bike but I haven't really been active so sorry about that. The forums helped loads too, one of the reasons I got rid of the Bigone exhaust system and got the Giannelli one. Still got the old mudguard.
Can't say I've checked what forks they are, when I got the bike last year I just thought they were standard same with the front caliper, I did buy a brembo front caliper but I need to make a new bracket for it and I never got round to it.
The tryes are Michelin Pilot Street on the back and Pilot Road 2 on the front.
And no didn't get any original wheels with it, thought about buying some at some point.
Supermoto set up is way better if you aren't off-roading. The standard ones just munch the tyres after about 500 miles if that on the road. Where's SM ones will last double if not triple that.
Whip it on eBay, might get a good price.
Also I remember this bike, his friend came on asking for help because it had no power in sixth gear. Turned out to be the BigOne. And the guy had a kitted out bike that was in a magazine, remember? About a year ago.
Yeah that's right, he knows a bit more then me when it comes to this sort of thing so he asked for me. As said was a massive help in deciding to get rid of the Bigone.
I want something long lasting. I'd whip my standard gutted pipe on, but it isn't as loud as the DEP. The only reason I haven't bought a PedStop pipe is because I want to see how the hold up in a year or so after being rode through winter. I doubt anyone will come forward with that though.
Cal, are they the underslung pipes?

Aren't they stainless steel? I'm sure they will be fine.
Doesn't look that low, but i bet the majority of members on this forum probably have never even been that low, unless your sticking your leg out like at tart and putting the bike down in the corner
If your just commuting its ideal is spose, but if your like me and can't help yourself then i would stick to the upper pipe because that one is going to get scratched eventually, not saying i can get low into every corner but there's bound to be one out there that i do
