Title: bit of kuwahara advice...
Post by: ammacopij72 on April 16, 2012, 12:14 PM
All,

looking to start my next build and I've decided it'll be either a Kuwi Laserlite (dream bike BITD) or a Nova.

There's a KZ83 f/f on the Bay at the moment for £350 starting price which sounds a bit high to me. Am I wrong on this and if so what should I be looking at pricewise for a Laserlite or a Nova f/f in good condition (doesn't have to be in tip top show condition as it will be a rider)?

 :) Cheers in advance,

Pij

i would say Kuwie's have had a ressurgence of late, so prices are strong.

nice laserlites are rare, and there are plenty if people in the market for one.

If you can find one, and you can afford it, get it bought..safe place for your money.

A starting point at £350 will make for an expensive build.

I have a nova frame that needs to be powdered or rechromed. Matching forks have already been powdered white. Plus various parts to build. drop me a pm if interested.
