I don't know if you're trying to scam people or you're just misinformed about the bike you're selling.
First of all, if it's the bike in the photos its a 2000 and not a 2004 model R6. Huge difference when it comes to bikes as there can be 1 or 2 generations of development between the two years.
Second, the R6 is a 600cc motorbike, not a 1300cc motorbike as your ad states (the 6 in the R6 denotes a 600cc engine. The Yamaha R1 has 1000cc, that's how the numbering works)
Third, the bike has nowhere near 231hp, in fact it has less than half of that. 2000 year models output around 100hp +/- 10hp at the rear wheel. Even the most powerful production bike you can buy today, the BWM S1000RR, has less than 231hp.
Fourth, you say its got 49500km, the advertisment on bestcypruscar states 24000km. Which one is right? (just checked the odometer in the photo it looks like it has just over 24k kms, this greatly affects the asking price and I'd make sure to get it right)
Fifth, that's not the original stock exhaust on it. What's the brand of that aftermarket exhaust? Usually when things have been modified and changed its common courtesy to list it in the ad.
I would also be prepared to answer questions on its service history, if it was ever crashed or laid down, what parts are soon going to need changing (tires, chain, sparks), who the mechanic was, etc, etc..
