The 750's are generally worth around the 15k mark.

sorry mate, new to the world of RC30's arn't you ?
apart from the strategic placement of cheap stickers to hide the burning of the bellypan from the aftermarket pipe, its looks a very nice example.
Its a sellers market for the RC series, sellers can command pretty well any price they like, and if you dont like it or cant afford it, there are 50 people behind you that can and will buy it.
that will be sold within a month i bet you.

Are they worth that money ? - no i dont think they are. if that was worth 6 - 7k in todays money in the scheme of things then yes they are worth every penny of that. fantastic to ride and still very useable today and will shock many modern bikes in the bends and on the straights too.
easy for me to say when i have one though.

Looks a decent example but 17k :o Thats RC45 money. Are they really fetching that much now?

Now i really need that lotto win if im ever gunna own an RC :pray: Although i do know a local guy with a castrol 45 sitting in his garage that doesnt really have a clue what its worth these days, last time i spoke to him he seemed surprised that he'd get 10k for it :P

There's a rather rough looking RC on ebay at the moment and they're after £9k for that.

Like most NC riders on here, if I could afford an RC I'd buy a nice example. :up:

That looks like one of the better examples for sale I've seen.

At the current exchange rate that's a good buy in Aussie dollars.

The RC30 has a following who (myself included) would pay more for a '30 than a '45. My god I love that bike - and I'll have one someday.

@PH19 - you'd better believe that'll be bought. ;)

I dont doubt that for one minute, 30's are classic cool, but i think your either a 30 or 45 lover and although i like the 30's it would have to be a 45 for me. Ok the 30 maybe a better bike but the 45 gives me a bonner everytime i see one.

That'll see for that much quite quickly I reckcon.

It's at the pricey end of the RC30's but it's a uk bike with low miles and history / extras.

I wouldn't say no if I had the money. :)
