That's about how I feel. The motor (assuming it runs well), electricals and title are worth 5 or 6 hundred to me, Anything else I get out of it is gravy. The supertrapp pipe I was going to buy for about $275 regardless, so the fact that this bike has one already on it is a bonus as well.
Are the wheels, tires (pirelli, pretty decent tread) rear fender, sissy bar, air box, shocks, battery box, side covers, air box, rear pulley and belt covers worth that much though? Those dont seem like high dollar items to me? I'll give selling them a shot. Maybe the tank's worth a buck or two.
The ad's been on CL for a month now and obviously no takers, and he said yesterday that $400 of that is to pay off the service bill for another bike the owner has in his shop, so the other 200 is flexible. I'll probably offer him 5 and be happy at 550.
In this area, savages are common enough, but they start at 1200.
