Not really, the economy has been at work in the MC market. I recently sold my '07 GS, 34k miles great condition.

I had 1200 views, 90+ watchers, great photos etc but when the push came to the shove only 3 bidders. I ended up with easily 1000 less than I wanted but the free market system sets the prices.

I sold my '04 BCR late last year, not as nice as yours but real close..once again lots of views, over 100 watchers , only a small number of bidders and went for much less than I would have thought.

You can always find someone advertising what you have for lots more money but rarely does someone pay over prevailing fair market value unless you have a buyer with more money than sense...and we all hope for one of those.


My view? Everyday you don't sell your bike it gets one day older and you add a few more miles. If you wait for market conditions to "catch up" you will almost always lose.
