MC28s go for 5-6k and only the SP demands that kind of money and from a shop you would rarely get that private, 28SEs and 21SPs go for 3.5-5k again from a shop, my SP went for 4k but it was in pretty good shape.

Without knowi g what sort of tune the motor is other than the carbs and system I cant see anything special on the bike, I'd like see what sort of rad/rads it's running, CDI, subframe, suspension all that stuff.

I also doesn't know why price so high.

Crank recently rebuilt - this maybe new crank or lightened. Ok about 500$
HRC Airbox 200$
HRC Exhaust System - 500$ (I bought mine for 200$)
Flat Slide Carbs -600$
WP Rear Shock - 800$ new
Some fairing work - 300$
-----------------------
2900$

Let include some other stuff like clip-ons, springs, windscreen, wiring, crankcase breathing +500$
--------
3400$

What is the price of stock NC29 in UK. About 2000$
----------
5400$
---------
But it's used.... so, - 1000$ (or ever more)
-----
4400$ (2761 GBP)

Yeah it is alot, would need to have had some serious work done to it to be worth that i'd say even with the trick parts (though that micron system is lovely and I have never seen one like it before for an NC29)
