I have a very sharp Grape (purple) 2000 Buell Blast (P3) with Buell Select Low seat , Matching Bar ends and Vance & Hines Exhaust. I have owned this Bike since 1500 Miles and ride it weekly, I recently had the 5K mile service done @ approx 5100 mi. This bike will lean over easily, and comfortably. I have had New River Harley do all services since I received it to include all recalls and oil changes. They installed a new spark Plug and new tires and I had them put Nitrogen in them. Never worry about tire pressure in the changing temperature. I ride Rain or shine to work and back and often on weekends with my wife. This bike has no problems 2 up and I have taken my larger sister around with no difficulty. The bike handles like a dream. It has a Vance and Hines Exhaust which is a little louder than stock but has a good sound and feels aggressive when on the throttle. This is one of the most recommended beginner bikes and is ideal for a shorter rider. My wife is 5'4" and has plenty of clearance. She easily stands with feet flat at a stop. There are some slight zipper scuffs, but Dave (Buell Mech at New River Harley) says a little Harley Gloss will buff them right out. I am selling this and My own Black/Red 2007 Buell Firebolt XB12R (see my other items) due to PCS-ing to Okinawa in July. This bike has never been down as far as I know. There was no evidence of it when I bought it from it's first owner, and I have never dropped it. I get 65-75 miles per gallon. 65 commuting to and from work in 1st-2nd gear, and around 75 when on the interstate going up to Raleigh or down to Wilmington. The exhaust is under slung to reduce weight. It also uses a belt drive with tension pulley for direct power to the wheel with no "chain lash". The bike is very light at 360 lbs dry. It gets it's power from a single Harley 500 cc cylinder . It's Torquey. It's lovingly called a "Thumper" due to it's fun single cylinder sound. I have a stack of additional pictures showing close ups of tread wear and other bits. Just email me. There are very few Buell riders and riding one is unique. You'll see lots of bikes but people will ask you "What's that" all the time. Don't be just another rice rocket, Ride the Real American Muscle. Ride a Buell and 'Own the Corners.' Call JR at 615-491-3943 or Dana at 615-496-2914. Call Now. We can deliver within a reasonable distance of Jacksonville, NC. $3000 OBO.

Consider this as a friendly suggestion. Look at the Classified section and get an idea of the bikes and the price range.
I am sure your bike is very nice but there is no way you would get what you are asking for on this site.
Just trying to help a fellow Bueller sell his/her bike...

I agree with Kalali. I bought a mint 2006 for $2500 a year ago. You may want to check a few Craiglistings for a comparison as well.
I thought Grape flavor was only offered in 2002?
Best of luck with the sale(s), and with Okinawa.

I guess the Blast is worth more than some thought. Good job on the sale.
