What's a reasonable price for a 2012 GSX650FU?

**TheDemonLord** · 26th February 2015, 17:19

2012 GSX650FU
Stock except for
Frame Sliders
Ventura Pack Rack
42,000 Km on the clock
Services at Coleman Suzuki every 6,000 Km

I am thinking somewhere around 7-8 k

Opinions - GO!

Edited for accuracy, faggot.
To the op, while the Kms are nothing to worry about, they should affect the value. However, it is a late model bike. Also, at those Kms, is there records of the suspension being serviced? If not, rear shock could be well stuffed. For me, $5500-$6500, depending on cond.

I'll have to check the paperwork (its at the office) looking at Tardme - I can't find a 650FU for cheaper than 8K and the one at 8K has been dropped (mine hasn't)

Reasons I'm asking is its almost full licence time and I am working out how much I am going to get for my litre+ fund

Price of others listed isn't always relevant if others have priced over market value.
Whats important is new price is 12k

Take 12k and subtract an amount which makes your bike worth buying.
33% for year one is 8k then 5% from the remainder each year 8k less 400=7.6 7.6 less 360=7.23

$7250.00 top dollar.
Reserve 7k and hope more than 1 bidder.
Reserve 6k and hope several interested bidders. Added risk of lower price but increased chance of quicker sale.
Reserve $1 and hope 15plus bidders all hoping to win. Guaranteed to sell but risk a lower amount.

It's a shit market to be selling, so don't expect too much or you'll be waiting a while. On the other hand, good used litre bikes are fucking cheap right now.

Thats my plan - the amount I ride daily, I am worried that if I wait till next summer to sell, not only will I have to pay Summer tax on my litre bike, but also I will probably have put it into about 50,000 Kms

Calm down. Its not a Honda.

Theres some nice 1000cc 2008 onwards sports bikes within a couple of k of your bikes value.

was his the 650F or 650FU?

Cause the F is relatively cheap (around 6-7K according to Tardme) but the FU cause its LAMS means I get to charge Learner Tax

Had been de-restricted but can be put back I believe.
