Honda Blackbird Rebuild: Buying the Bike - Part 1

[@Motorbikes-xz6kx]

This film was made in about 2002 so was only 3 or 4 years old so it was a bargain really!

This video was obviously filmed a good few years ago.. when the bikes values were closer to new. I paid £2900 for my mint 18k mile Blackbird, importantly mine has a full service history. It has every document from new, every mot, the original books, stamped service book..even the original purchase invoice.

Enjoyed all three episodes. Just had my Model X 1999 clutch fail. Suspect slave cylinder, looking for hints on KZbin, doesn't look too bad. Here's hoping. I love my Bird !. Blue f*****g blue :)

Brilliant video mate

Completely crazy prices for crashed bikes!

This was filmed when they were new bikes.

Wow! I paid the equivalent of 700 quid more or 3000pounds total for my 1999 Honda Super Blackbird with just 12000km on it. And it is immaculate! Spotless! It rides like a dream and goes like flint! Buying a savage title bike is such a risk! There is so much that you dont know about the bike and frame damage etc. from just looking at it. You really need to take it apart. Those savage bikes are way overpriced!

You must be off your head , over 2k , i wouldn't touch it with a barge pole How much do you know about bikes ?

"Doesn't look too bad" hahahaha

[@Penver]

Two years ago I bought a completely repaired 1999 Cat-D for £2200. Nothing gone wrong with it all since. Mileage is irrelevant on these models.

[@brit-in-czech]

Obviously.

Crashed bikes have less resale value anyway.
