I'm glad I didn't say that (but I did think it)
Paragraph breaks and line spaces are good too

"Hi all! I'm thinking of selling up - I've got a chassis that I was told is based on an mk indy:
04 r1 engine with new baffle fitted
new oil and filter
Its got the loom, ecu, clocks, keys, imobiliser, standard headers and airbox.
A balanced prop with the right ends on. Sierra 3.62lsd diff.
Fuel tank, most off the fuel/brake lines are fitted.
Discs all around.
Alloys but some of the powdercoat is flaking off.
There is a full gelcoat bodywork set with all the lights except front indicators.
Carbon fibre dash.
Aeroscreen.
2 glass fibre seats
Radiator.
Avo suspension.
The sierra logbook for an age related plate.
Theres also a chrome roll bar.
I also have a sprocket adapter
The chassis is rolling, except the steering rack needs connecting (which I have). Then most of the other things are there ready to fit. I've
spent about £3500 but what is it worth job lot and is anyone interested?
There are a few early pics in the photo archive
I also have a 150amp welder
Cheers Adam"

The big question is not how much have you have spent so far, but how much more needs to be spent to complete it.
If you do offer it for sale it would be a good idea to include that information, otherwise people will just assume the worst.
As far as selling on Ebay goes-
Bear in mind that people buying on Ebay, and, I guess, most other places, are looking for a bargain. They are not looking to pay what something is
worth, they are loking to pay well under what it is worth. You can do better selling stuff that people have to have, like some tools etc, but with an
unfinished project you must expect to take a bit of a loss unless you get very lucky.
Try it out is the thing to do, list it with a buy it now price of whatever is the lowest you will take, and see if it sells.
Auction with reserve I think is not so attractive because people don't know what it is going to go for and quite often reserve isn't made.
At least with buy it now everyone knows what's what

Hi,
Is any of the engine install complete?
Wiring?
Bike specific stuff (headers/prop/reverse etc.)?
If not, which I;d guess it isn't then I think you might sell it for close to £2000. Part builts are so hard to predict.
Mine is near to being finished and I still wouldn;t get much more for it than you. It s crap time to sell unfortunatly. all the best with it.
adam1985 - 4/11/08 at 04:47 PM
i might sell it in bits then that way i would of thought id get more or less what i paid
hobzy - 4/11/08 at 07:02 PM
Not to jump straight in but I might have the dash off you
