Bike Valution for Carnet?

Has anyone ever been questioned about the value they have stated for their Carnet? I am assuming most people down value their machine.
Thanks.

Absolutely, as long as its a 'credible' price you'll get away with it.

'Twelve careless owners, raced every Sunday, crashed nine times.....' you get the idea. ;-)

Yes and make sure it's well caked in mud and grime before you get it valued too....If you put some 2 stroke oil into the petrol beforehand too,it'll smoke like a knackered old dog! That's got to knock the value down a fair bit.

we have twice had carnets ( issued in Australia) for our two Honda bikes. Both times our valuation was accepted...we did not need to get a written valuation from a dealer. Both times we took into consideration the condition of the bikes....you know....the usual, scratches, unpopular colour, and the fact that it was a very very 'naked' bike. All the bits and pieces were ours to keep rather than a value on the bike. Doesnt eveybody sell their bike and keep the accessories?????
