bro, good choice for going to get a Super Four.

 

as for the answers to ur above questions, i personally think u'll have to do some homework of ur own. prices are more or less the same outside. its jus to see which shop's customer's service makes u feel comfortable to buy from them... road tax is $140 for a year.

 

the above is wat i can advice as a newbie and my 2 tiny cents...

all the best to ur CB400 bike hunt!

[buttbutt8]

icic. thanks, i also tink super4 is a great bike when i use it during mi class 2A lesson.

 

Actually out of the above qns, the most important qns i want to noe is the 2nd qns. Is the installment period norm 3 year outside or i can as for longer installment period?? coz i still studying and need to make sure that mi budget can afford.

[biting_point]

do some maths with the seller.. accessories does up the price a bit but not much, accessories does have depreciation also..

 

try ask shops for market price for particular plate..

take 60-70% of price of accessories..

add them up, you agar agar get the selling price of the bike..

Maybe you guys wanna take a look at garage sales. Many Super4 for you to choose from. Condition shd will depend on the previous owner, but i dun harm to check them out.
