Default how much is my bike worth in the UK?

i have a honda 919

-2003
-5000miles
-Power commander, renthal bar, and a few other light goodies.

the bike has been dropped (bought it that way) the damage is on both sides to the engine covers and the brake and clutch levers but nothing more then scratches.

i was looking online and found new ones to go for 6000 pounds (about $12K USD) i bought this bike for $4K back in feb. nada says its worth Low=$3825 and Average=$5030

I would imagine not much since your speedo and odo would be of little use in a predominantly metric country...

I was waiting for a mod to get a hold of this...

For the record, I've been relaxed the whole time. But I think someone needs to watch their language.

It would be worth about £1000-£1500 with no UK documentation. With all the paperwork add another £500. It is not worth the risk when you can buy a UK spec bike for another £1000 or a track bike all sorted for the same money.
