Author Message   Buelldr Posted on Friday, February 17, 2012 - 11:11 am:        Just thinking, Its all red, no problems, warranty until may, only mod is the jardine fener eliminator. IDK ive had the bike for 2 years and I kinda want to get something different, been giving thought to a Triumph Daytona. What yall tihnk about the price, miles... Competetive enough of a price?   Timebandit Posted on Friday, February 17, 2012 - 11:24 am:        Your price seems to be typical of what people are asking, though I don't know how well bikes are actually transferring ownership at those prices. Just as a data point, a couple of weeks ago a friend of mine bought a flawless 2009 1125R in Hero Blue/White with 3400 miles on it. It was out of warranty, but he was able to get the harness update put on at factory expense as a condition of completing the sale. Asking price was $5000. Transaction was $4700. Being in warranty might help you.   Jdugger Posted on Friday, February 17, 2012 - 11:42 am:        I think it's a bit high, but not too bad. I bought a 2009 Red CR with 20,000 miles for $3,000. The bodywork shows 20,000 miles (mildly dull, typical rock pits), but the bike is mechanically sound and runs great. Imagine my surprise when I went to register it in Texas this morning and the State refused to accept a taxable value below $5,100! Holy shit, these things didn't cost that *new* just a year+ ago! I ended up having to pay registration and sales tax for an extra $2100 of bike value that isn't there. I sure WISH I could find someone that would pay $5100 for it -- I'd sell it in a heartbeat and pocket the $2k!   Redcrrider Posted on Friday, February 17, 2012 - 11:49 am:        Sounds like it's ok for the state of Texas to cheat on their taxes, but not you.   Froggy Posted on Friday, February 17, 2012 - 12:05 pm:        For what its worth, a friend of mine in NY bought a CR for $5400, and my cousin in Cali sold his CR for $5600, this within the last few weeks. I would love to find a $3k CR, can't get enough of them!   Jdugger Posted on Friday, February 17, 2012 - 12:07 pm:        How many miles? Mine has 24,000 miles.... You could maybe make an argument for $4k, but there's just no way the thing is worth $5100.   Ratbuell Posted on Sunday, February 19, 2012 - 09:05 am:        I think it's worth every penny, and so will the right buyer. If someone responsible is on the fence about buying it...let them RIDE it. For an hour or so.   Drugmanrx Posted on Sunday, February 19, 2012 - 07:09 pm:        I wish you had this up for sale 3 weeks ago. I just bought a used CR and paid about $1000 more for it at a stealership...and I live pretty close to you as well But yeah, I would have bought it from you if I saw it was for sale
