Yamaha R3 Cold Start Sound Okay?

[Brian P]

Hey, I was curious if you wouldn't mind answering a pricing question for me. Do you think that a 2015 R3 with 30k km's is worth 4.3k cdn? If it runs well and is in good condition? I want to go look at this bike but I want to make a fair offer.

I'm not up to date with current pricing, but just as a point of reference, in 2018 I paid $3500 for a 2015 R3 with about 6600 km and gentle crash damage.

Bought my 2018 Suzuki V-Strom last June with 15,000 km, rode it on three 4 day rides and out to the Cabot Trial and back took 14 days (Nova Scotia) and back. Doesn't sound like that much right? It's starting now the season with 31,000 km, Nothing for a Japanese vehicle...

The long-term durability of the later-model Yamaha twins and triples - all of them - is of no concern.
