Title: SBK fork cost
Post by: lawbreaker on March 04, 2009, 06:56:03 PM
I may be picking up a new (to me) bike and it comes with a spare Showa front end ( forks and triples only) from a 2002 998. Curious as to what these babies wouls/should sell for?. The internals have been redone and upgraded.

Thanks in advance... didnt exactly know where to post [beer]

200 dollars..... to me only.  ;D

Depends on the buyer,  I got my 999 forks for my old bike for $350  I've seen them go for more, and less.

I've seen them (actually) sell for anywhere between $300 - $750 but these days I'd be VERY surprised to see them fetch anything over $400.   They do have the TIN coating on the sliders which can be more desirable. The fact that they've been "redone & upgraded" only makes a difference if they're correct for the future owner. Otherwise it's gonna get done again anyway.

Other questions potential buyers will ask is when (miles/time) were they redone and for which bike/what weight rider?

best of luck with the sale

I just bought a set from someone on this board off a 2002 996.  Ti sliders, annodized black, complete stem and I paid $450 shipped.  Saw them cheaper and saw them more expensive.  These were already annodized, so I thought it was a good deal.

$300-$350 without Nitrided sliders, $400-$450 with.

With the anodizing, you got a good deal
