How much for a 3TJ?
Due to some problems with my other bike I'm looking for something to ride through the rest of the winter, and for general riding duties as well as a few track days next summer.
I had a 3EN1 about 6 years ago which I loved, so when putting together a list of possible bikes a 3TJ jumped to the top of the list.
There is one not too far from me up for £900, it looks pretty tidy and original from the photos but the seller reports some blowing from the downpipes. From my previous FZR ownership I know how much of a problem it is to find solid replacements for sensible money.
So my question is, how much would you expect to pay for a tidy 3TJ in good condition, taking into account the time of year (ie I'm looking for a winter bargain
)?

Re: How much for a 3TJ?
Pipes can be a pain, you can find them but it takes time and you don't get much choice about how much, you just buy them. 900 is good for a tidy bike but its down to you to check it over.
My project is for sale see the tread "Can you see what it is yet" probably not a winter bargain but you can see whats been done
