He had it down to $1400 by the end of Sunday
 
SHHHHHHH!
Don't tell me that!
You trying to get me depressed?
 
How much does it cost to sell a bike there? Can't be cheap, probably too much to even try to sell something for $1700

$50 includes a weekend pass (So $30). However they told everyone to show up on New Years day between 10am and 11pm for load in and there was no one there. It took them 2 hours to send someone to tell security to let us bring the bikes in.
 
Slice of pizza and a pop for $9.

Didn't see too much I was interested in. Did see an old RS250 in one booth that was kind of neat.

Damn... I was looking at that one too. I was shocked to see something in the used section that was reasonably priced. I wonder if he sold it. If that thing didn't sell, I can't imagine any of those bikes sell.
 
Buddy of mine sold his there, track one. It's a ton of quick exposure.

yes, that is theo' and me on the road king,, my daughter-in-law decided she wanted to be "taken" down the aisle on the bike, and have me "give her away", so after the wedding, all dressed up, I rode away from the alter with my wife onboard.
some one snapped that pic when I headed to the Hall sans helmets. Once there.. ALL THE GIRLS wanted a ride! weee whoooo! lol... good night for the ol' guy! <grin>
thanks for asking!

I thought so although I haven't sold mine yet. Over 40 people took my phone number (counted the chits) but not one single call or text.

Huh ?? No one gave you a low ball offer ? Not even a trade for a mint car with a blown motor or some Kinda POS deal like that.. I love the rims on your bike, I had too get up close and just touch them, so nice... Very nice bike!!

Nope not one :-( I felt my price was a fair starting point since it was the 2nd lowest price on an 07 CBR RR with original fairings that I could find. I looked at a ton of crap ones with under 10,000km before I purchased mine. Yes it has 32,***km but I feel the condition is on the higher side of things and 5000km a year really isn't high for a bike.

As for the wheels thanks for the kudos really happy with them and the extra steps do really make a difference. There are a few other bikes running around with the same color but side by side mine tend to pop a little more due to the fact we used a pearl base coat then the color then a clear on top.

the he demographic that will buy your bike is just hibernating. It will sell easily in the spring.

Thanks thats what I figured as well. I have two dealers currently offering money on a trade in so that would make things easier.

What are you gonna trade it in on ?

Boulevard C90T BOSS. Going to try a cruiser for a bit hope I'm not making the wrong decision.

I did the full race course with Racer5 and a couple track days after which really took the fun aspect out of street riding. Then for me street riding became all about the comfort-ability and destination which I just couldn't get out of my SS any longer. Considered going the sport tourer or adventure bike but didn't really like the lack of "soul" with those bikes.

I inked a deal yesterday and got a fair price for my bike subject to inspection so I guess I'll call it sold.
