$17,500 for a 2002 S3T?!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/56844657001-00_W0QQ itemZ270132446037QQihZ017QQcategoryZ49986QQrdZ1QQc mdZViewItem I guess he doesn't get out much... | ||

I guess he's got the Harley mind-set; I bought this bike for $14,000 and added a bunch of accessories, so I should be able to get $17000 for it. | ||

250 miles and never seen the road, plus all those mods. Jeesh. | ||

Would you buy a bike from that guy? He looks ........uhhh challenged. | ||
| Sanchez |
Lol, great picture of the bike, too. The dude is blocking half of it. | ||

I wouldn't touch it with YOUR ten foot pole!  Ah but you know there's one born every minute......  BC Steve | ||

DAMN!! It's got the anodized blue valve stems!! I'm gonna email him NOW and see if he'll come down to 17 even! | ||

Does it make sense to invest $14K and then sell it for $8.5K? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/mcy/352884708.html | ||

Seems to be a lot of that going around: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ewItem&item=200120379949 | ||

Yeah, I think that the S1 is actually the worse of the two because we actually know how much all the crap costs that he put on that bike. If he paid that much for that crap he obviously got it from a dealer with a huge mark up in price. Theres no other explanation for that kind of BS. | ||
| Ducxl |
BS is right.I paid less than $800 for a front PM wheel less than two years ago.That means the rear is $2200 according to him? That's much more than a top of the line carbon fiber wheel! BS! Wow.... | ||

I probably shouldn't bust the seller's chops - I'd like to get my 15G's back outta my RS, but I've decided to at least stick my toe into the real world and try to get around half of that for it. At least I know enough not to uglify the bike by standing in front of it! AL | ||
| Kyrocket |
ALRIGHT! I think the price of mine just went up.  | ||

Looks like he bought the bike used and in it's current condition. I see a fews mods in the pic. Appalachian isn't even a Buell dealer, just a typical Mega-sized Chromatorium. Former owners (Howells) was an early Buell supporter and had a nice 'modest-sized' shop. IMHO This guy got gouged by the dealer and is trying to make it back. Bret | ||

Hmmm, I read the ad again. He may have bought it new. Figuring in full MSRP, ($12ish) freight, prep, tax, etc, he prob did pay at least $14!! Too bad when 2 years later you could still find leftovers tubers for about 1/2 of that! | ||

Maybe I'm hopefully lost in dreamland but with only 763 S3Ts made throughout the entire production run of the model, I'm thinking probably only half of those are still around and in running condition. In my color/year combo [Volcano grey/Nuclear Blue] there were only 160 produced. I seriously hope they actually become somewhat of a collector item someday. I'm holding on to mine as long as I can and as for those parting them out more power to ya. This guy is obviously also dreaming but maybe he'll also help bring the price back up to something at least reasonable. I hate to think I would have to let mine go for a measly 4-5 G's if I get hard up for cash. The damn motor alone is worth that much in my mind. In reality, it probably won't happen in my lifetime though. BC Steve |
