    2008 GSXR 600 3200 miles all stock in "as new" condition?

    Curious what a reasonable actual price it would sell for if posted in all the usual places, CL, Cycletrader, various bbs's etc...

    I was expecting your answer as a multiple of Groms.. I'm thinking it's worth 2x Grom

    In my area it's worth around 5k. You might get more by parting it out. Especially if the stock fairings are in good shape.

  9. Depends if you are referring to stock Groms or my Grom.

    I'll take your Gixxer and $5k for Grim. :D

    There's your answer...it's all about location and timing. List it for 7 and knock off 500 a week until sold.

    Thats probably a good plan. I really don't plan on selling it but for some odd reason decided a Duc 916,996 or 998 would be a fun street bike. At my age the grunt of a twin is easier around town than wringing the 600's neck.

    Well its spring time and as they say when it comes to motorcycles and even exorbitantly price jacked ones........"there's an ass for every seat" :D

    I picked 1 up early last year meeting that description but with a few nice add-ons for $5750. Absolute perfect condition and receipts for maintenance. I then sold it for $5500 in the fall after putting a couple thousand miles on it.

    I've seen a bunch on c-list at $6500+ and they all just sit until price is lowered. The problem is you can find NOS at dealers for $8K-$8.5k if you shop hard enough. I've also seen a bunch get delisted presumambly sold under the $6K mark so that's where I would start with my listing if you really want to sell it. Just my $.02 in relation to the GSXR market in flyover country.

    Hey, I'm a Ducati guy, but "at my age" and "Duc 916 would be a fun street bike" have probably never, ever, EVER been used in the same sentence (or in consecutive sentences?). The 916 was a torture rack among sport bikes.

    I'd still love to have one, though! :D

    it would pair nicely with the wife's monster... but is it realy that bad a riding position vs a GSXR?

    From everyone I know who has had one - yes. :D

    I'm gonna have to find one to spend a few minutes in the saddle with....

    You should test one. My 916 killed my wrists, and I was in my early 30's.
