Majesty 250

[mjf65]

Currently looking at a 2002 one with 15k on the clock, pretty good condition private sale, what should it be priced at?

[gn2]

Varies hugely according to condition and seller.
If its a real minter from a dealer with full service history, some warranty plus a year's tax and MoT I reckon about £1500
There's a nice looking 55 plate Sym GTS 250 Voyager on Bike Trader for £875...?

I really would like to stick to Japanese, after 32 years on bikes I've only just plucked up courage to buy a Triumph!

[gn2]

But the Japanese stuff is made all over the place and Sym is one of the companies who build for the Japanese brands.
Not sure but I think the Majesty could be from Spain.
That Sym is very much on a par with any Japanese brand in terms of reliability.
Insurance and parts will be cheaper.
Triumph?
That'll be Thailand then....
But back to the Maj, what is the asking price?

[MrGrumpy]

The Maj will have been built by MBK in France, using a Minarelli engine from Italy.

Basically, an 11 year old scoot doesn't any have book value - you are down in the bargain basement here. We are talking in the range of £250-£1000 depending purely on its condition and presentability ....or how good a salesman / how much cheek you have, and whether you find a keen punter!

Iride a Yamaha YP250 1998 and love it to bits. My 250 is carbed and i ride at 110 kph most of the time on open road. Sym 's do look quite a bit like a Yamaha especially the 600 looks like a YP400 Majesty on steriods. Lol.
