Z1300 The Muscle machine
As well as the 400 Superdream we noted 5 other bikes including a Kawasaki z1300 a Honda cd200 a Honda cb1000 a Honda 1000 6 cylinder nitrous oxide dragster bike and Reliant Bond Bug. Apart from the Kawasaki z1300 all the other bikes were non runners and in need of restoration and this was taken into consideration when valuing them for probate. It is well known to bike ethusiasts that restoring old motorbikes is time consuming and very expensive therefore a non running bike is worth hardly more han scrap unless it is a real classic. The Z1300 was one of the biggest bikes ever made and a real muscle machine and really not for the faint hearted.
A Diverse Collection Of Chattels
Other items valued were a large Cd collection, a selection of rare hi fi equipment, tools and accessories and a wine collection, as well as a considerable amount of general household effects that were all added into the general part of the appraisal. Chattels valuations vary dramatically and it is quite normal for us to find items of high value so it is wise to use experienced valuers. Our RICS probate valuation will ensure that the chattels are not under or overvalued.
