Hello all! I was hoping you all could provide me with some helpful advice. I am wondering what a fair price would be for a 2000 Buell Blast with 2,700 miles on it? It has no modifications except for a windscreen. The bike has been dropped once. The rear tire needs to be replaced. The seller is asking $2,300. Thanks in advance for any help =) |

Offer $1,700.00 - not a penny more - the cost for rockercover gasket and rejetting. Also make sure the pully is the correct one - that it has already been swapped out - a 2000 Blast recall - gratus from the factory/dealership, but the bike has to get there first to have it done. I'd take a 2000 Blast in a heart beat though - first year and all that, depends what you really plan to do to the bike. Got Thump?! Just Blasting on the Dark side! EZ |

I paid $2,000 for my '00 blast and it only had 1030 miles on it. Of course within the first 300 miles I had to replace the rocker gasket. But you can find good deals on used blasts all day long. Check e-bay, that's where I found mine. $2300 is a lil' steep. edited by bradgotti on June 11, 2004 |

I got a 2003 with 350 miles for 3,000 on ebay. Considering the price of a brand new 2004 I thought this was an ok deal. |

My girlfriend just bought a 2003 blast with 2400mi. on it for $2500 from Kegel HD in Rockford IL. It looks brand new (no sh*t) and was a one owner trade in not a "riders edge" bike. They threw in/mounted a new rear tire. After looking around a bit, we decided this was a fair deal. |

Fair price and buying from a dealer they should have given a thorough check. Do make sure to check it out yourself. A telltale sign of any maintenance is if they removed the spacer for the primary adjustment. |

jusask seems like a fair price especially from a dealer. I picked up an 03 last fall for 2300 with 400 miles from a private party who's parents said get rid of the bike easiest oil change, hardest trans fluid changes I've ever done  |
