Trying to find a low milage late model, to transfer all my good mods to, and prices are to the moon and staying there! Prices below the border are just as bad. Gonna be a long winter.
Cheers!

majority in $4k to $5k region, higher mileage at $2.5k +.
10 years ago I bought 2 at $3k, foolishly sold one.
Cheers!

But so has the age of the bikes! $3k for a 6 yr old versus $3k for a 16 yr old ! OK if you're a seller, not so hot for a buyer !
Cheers!

I see them listed for 2-3K in my area but there aren't as many on the market.

Ten years ago I would see 2-3 of them listed on Craigslist every week. Folks were buying them and then choosing to get something bigger/faster/comfier or decided riding wasn't a good thing for them. Now they seldom come up for sale - and a whole lot of them are beat up bobber conversions.
Here is a current 2002 for $1,900 with 3,547 miles on it:
https://cincinnati.craigslist.org/mcy/d/pleasant-plain-suzuki-savage-650/7793...
And a 1995 with 5,822 miles for $1,995. (Funny the price is $1 per year).
https://toledo.craigslist.org/mcy/d/rossford-1995-suzuki-ls650/7788482375.html
My neighbor is a financial advisor, and he believes that with the increasing cost of living - a lot of folks are going to be getting rid of toys soon. He predicts prices for used cars/boats/motorcycles/campers and other non-essential items are likely to get cheaper soon. This is particularly true for those toys that require folks to pay to keep things at a storage facility and pay insurance and taxes on toys they seldom use.
When one comes up that is a late model - they often are asking close to $4,000.

Another thing to keep in mind is the sizeable migration off Craigslist for used items. The majority of Craigslist migrators moved to FB Marketplace.
I don't believe this has much effect on pricing, but it does effect one's ability to find alternatives if they only use Craigslist.
