just my thoughts 14k for a r1 is a joke


i wouldnt get to worried ..about new prices ..

theres always someone that pays the new price ..
probably that they want the warranty
thenquite a few do 1600 miles in 12 months after fitting 750 quid worth of bits find that their old bandit was quicker or fall off doing a u turn

and then get rid of it as it will explode on its 2nd aniversary

and then sell it to me for 4300 quid

dont get too concerned there will be another along very shortly

im being honest ..the 660 will never fare well 2nd hand ..as the general press will brainwash the public that 100 horse power and abs are the making of a great adventure bike

then the reality .. it runs out of steam at 80 the gear spacing is to tall ...my god it vibrates alittle ...single cylinder imagine that ..grr

ok im only new to the tenere ..but not new to thumpers ..
if you dont intend to use the bike for what it was designed for .. it will fall short of the 100 hp twins and triples

so it will constantly be served up cheap by road biased buyers .
for that reason i fear the long term production life of this bike in its present form ... grrr

it may end up as sought after as the africa twin ..ten years from now
