Thought this was interesting. Never riden 2009 1125CR for $8200. Price may be high by about 500-1000 but with no miles its a rare find.

sounds like b/s every bike is ridden.

maybe a one in a million case of:

wife bought present for husband, husband will be back in town on friday, had it delivered on thursday, because she can't ride nor even possess the knowlegdge to start it, he died on plane before he made it home? no family knows what to do with it? so up for sale she blows? i mean goes

Not necessarily. The pics show a nice garage with a Shelby GT500 on a lift . The bike may have been considered art to the guy, have known a couple guys that have put their bikes in their livingrooms/dens as art. [smirk]

i bought my 2006 SV650s in 2007 as a brand new left over. It had 0 miles on it. Bikes arent like cars. they dont get miles added to them moving around because no one ever starts them just to move them around the showroom/garage.

No plate, all the keys/keychains/tags on one keyring still, tires defenitly dont look like theyve ever been on a street

id say it looks real

and ive known a few people who work at retail bike shops, if they actually ride them, just to move them, they usually get their ***** handed to them, bikes you push to avoid putting miles on them, it never looks good for the seller if a bike is being sold with like 3 miles on it.

 

[anrkizm95]

all bikes are ridden before being shipped.

 

[GOduc]

yes but they typically do that on a dyno, controlled environment and dont ahve the speedo attached yet.

 

[anrkizm95]

yes but they typically do that on a dyno,

by law bikes are street or a private track ridden a min of 1 mile before being shipped from the factory

He likely bought it as an "investment" last Buell yadda yadda. I see 2009's in Socal with low miles (<3500) for 6k all the time.
