The only problem with the bike is that is was dropped on its kickstand ( thats what i was told ) and it was repainted black by the previous owner.
Being that the NM edition was mostly paint....you have a bike that is worth what a standard 748 is worth. I would go along with the $5500 price...but only if the paint looks as good as factory paint. I still wouldn't pay that much for it though. I picked up my 02 748 with 6k miles for $3400 last month. It had new tires and an exhaust...otherwise stock. One crack in the right upper, but nothing major or expensive to fix.
There was a NM bike on ebay not to long ago,it was said to be Mike Tyson's bike(not that I can see him rididng it ?) but they had no real proof it was Tyson's bike, I think it went for about 7K with all origional paint and such. I did email the guy who was selling it and asked him to check the mirrors for teeth marks, that would be surfice to me that Tyson did indeed own it at one time or another........he told me to piss off politely.
I know...I got lucky...but it was on Ebay and no one bid on it. His reserve was $3200. I found all this out by getting in contact with him. I felt bad about the $3200 price, so I gave him all the cash I had in my pocket. He didn't really need the money. Just wanted to pay off his loan because he never rode the bike anymore.
I had a choice between a 2000 or a 2001 748 that I was going to pick up that weekend (before I found the one I bought), and both were $5k. One had 6k miles, the other had 9k miles. Both were mint as well as having the major services done within the last 200 miles.
A 748L that's been completed repainted, spells a dropped bike or a crash worthy of all new paint and body (hum?)... Maybe worth $3500-4k. If you get $3500 you are lucky guy. With 749s and some 999 models selling for low $5k now (I know crazy!)....you gotta wonder why soembody would buy a 748.
Plus she is not much of a "L" if she is black, eh!
