'08 1125R for trade in SoCal

[Jstn4jet]

located in North San Diego County. 5500 mi. Never raced. All stock except smoked windscreen. near perfect condition. no lein, Clean title. zero mechanical issues. I'm looking for an older tube frame buell + some cash. I have another baby on the way and want to pay a couple biils off before he or she is born. Not sure how much to post this for cash, but if the right numbers are thrown my way maybe we can work something out. I'm willing to travel a little ways if you wanna meet halfway or to deliver it (I'll only deliver to someone who's absolutely serious about buying). Photobucket isn't working for me right this very second, I'll try and post pics asap. If you would like me to email pics or post a vid, I will do so upon request.

Is my asking price too high or am I not getting any buyers because of the off-season?

 

[theoctopus]

Your asking price is not listed in this ad. What is it?

I'm in Los Angeles and have a good handle on southern California pricing. I might be able to help you adjust to better attract buyers.

 

[Jstn4jet]

it was in the craigslist link I had posted (which expired)...oops. Im asking $7000. Originally I just wanted to trade, but drew up some numbers after I didnt get any takers for trade.

 

[GAXB9R]

I would trade plus cash, but i have an xb and live in the otherside. Halfway for us is Dallas TX i think

 

[theoctopus]

I think $7000 is an OK price for the market, but you're going to have to sit on it for a while, probably. In truth, there isn't much of a Buell fan base here in SoCal, which means if you want to get rid of it ASAP, you'll need to bottom out that price a bit. I imagine you'll have more takers at $6000.

It's a good year, and a nice bike. Best of luck on the sale.

 

[Jstn4jet]

Small fan base for sure! I'm going to drop my asking price to $6500 obo. I have high hopes for selling soon since its tax return season. What better time to buy a bike!? Thanks for the input

 

[kbfnail]

It is a nice bike. Im in Vista and have seen your ad. My opposition (Wife) wont budge though!

 

[Jstn4jet]

haha won't budge because of the price or because its a 1125R? Cause I can flex with the price a bit, however changing a woman's mind is nearly impossible in some cases, and I won't be able to help you one bit if thats the case lol

 

[kbfnail]

I have a 09 buell XB12. She wont budge on me owning 2 bikes lol.

 

[Jstn4jet]

gotcha, well if she breaks let me know, I dont think this thing will sell anytime soon lol

 

[Theycallmecrash]

Guve her the XB and you can have the 1125, then you wont own 2

^[up] that's how i got my 1125 have the wife the sv she said I couldn't have two street bikes so i said fine your learning to ride. Now we take family trips my 5 year old rides with me and she gets her own bike.

 

[kbfnail]

My wife things motorcycles are death traps. So I need a back up plan. "Operation Secret Storage" LoL

 

[Theycallmecrash]

Ill store it for you

 

[Jstn4jet]

You will also have to deploy "Operation: Spend 6 grand without the wife finding out" lol

 

[P3_techman]

Nice looking 1125. I bet those grip pads are one of your favorite things on that bike, eh? I slip around all over the place on mine without them. If I end up moving to San Diego here soon and you still have it we might could talk business.

Good luck with your sale, bro.

@Stensg

she said I couldn't have two street bikes so i said fine your learning to ride.

Yes! +1

 

[Jstn4jet]

thanks. to be honest, I dont even notice them. I dont ride the bike the way it was designed to be riden. I more or less just commute to and from work on it (sad to say).
