Firstly I need to apologise it's been 2yrs since I've been here.
I still have my 1125cr but always wanted an xb also I am in the process of buying a very low mileage 2008 1 owner super clean, what sort of price would you guys/girl's expect to pay just so i know as I have put a deposit down.
Also haven't viewed yet but what do I need to look for it has full HD service history.
Thanks

look on ebay to get an idea of pricing
tidy & undamaged with service history always helps :yup:
if it has the free spirits tensioner & Maz nipple mod
that would be a bonus too , good luck :mrgreen:

Hi thanks I've picked it up now and I'm delighted with it.
The bike is still standard with just a few light mods she had been pampered and serviced to death in its 2000 miles could you give me more ideas on the necessary madds.
Thanks

They’re all like that from the factory. It’s just the angle of the light in that picture making it look worse than it is! ;)
