which is a total of $9,000 the value of the bike on the low end

really? not being a smart-ass but your gixxer is 10 years old.

here in lies the problem with getting work done to your bike or auto. You can put as much into it as you like but you have to look hard for someone that will give you as much as you put into it. Maybe a Suzi forum may yield better results for you.

99% of people here have the perfect bike already...

PS, ive done 186 on a stock gixxer 1000 so if you had all that work done and it wont go above 186 there is something shady with it

 

[mykeewrench]

lol im definately not tryna get $9,000 trade for the bike.the nada on my bike is $4,750 if it had 30k miles but mine only has 9k.so im sure my bike is at least worth $5,500 with all the tasteful mods,low miles and being in excellent condition.

yeah 9 grand is bonkers for an 02. you could get a brand new gxsr 600 or 750 for a little more and its probably just as fast.

 

[mykeewrench]

my bike is all stock except for turn signal mirrors and small comestic things like that.

 

[Mark XB12r]

[Zeroflat24]

thanks alot.i was getting worried that this forum wasnt welcomimg.

we arent trying to get on your case. just trying to let you know your asking price is too high. i wish you good luck with your sale and good luck with getting your buell!

 

[mykeewrench]

thanks but i really know i want get $5,500 for my bike in this recession.all i need is enough to get my dream bike and im good.this guy wants to sell me a salvaged title 06 xb12Ss with 7k miles for $3,500 or trade me my bike for his and give me a grand.but i think thats too much for a bike that you cant get full insurance coverage on.

 

[mykeewrench]

im sorry.i know i "wont" get $5,500

 

[mykeewrench]

i have it on ebay and craigslist.just waiting.

 

[BuellRiderX]

Welcome and glad you're here buddy [up]


Your bike is clean .. but it's old and quite possibly the ugliest sports bike of the 21st century. Of course that's just my opinion. I honestly doubt you'll find someone that will want to trade you a nice Buell for it. Good luck selling it and hope to see you on a Buell soon!

 

[mykeewrench]

everyone is entitled to their opinion.yes you mentioned looks but nothing about performance and speed which its legendary for.

 

[mykeewrench]

and i will get my buell and the with the plans i have for the bike,it will be one of the best looking custom buells ever.maybe even better looking than yours. lol

 

[mykeewrench]

thanks btw for welcoming me[up]

 

[Jramsey]

Fixed it.

everyone is entitled to their opinion.yes you mentioned looks but nothing about being a cookie cutter bike that's seen on just about every street corner unlike the Buell.

 

[mykeewrench]

can i see a pic if you dont mind?

 

[anrkizm95]
