Grab a Hayabusa with low Kms!!!!!!!
Excellent sports tourer, Owned for a year approximately. Bought from red baron a year ago.
Plastidipped to matte black and yellow. Runs smoothly no issues at all. Comes with heated grips. Serviced regularly no issues with fluids.
The bike is fun to drive and packs a punch.
Test drive welcome, serious customers only looking for a quick sale.

no words...... well no kind ones anyway. 20k ks should have been a very tidy bike. There will be someone out there though

These are awesome bikes, but to get better than $5k your going to need better pics.
Trying to help, not score cheap points.
Sold mine 3 years ago. Would love another (will always be in the market for a replacement at the right price) . Needed some work but I had good pics.
Based purely on info plus pics I would be looking at no more than 3.5 to 4.5 depending on test ride, because it is so far from original and in the pics the result is not better than factory. This gives the impression it was done in a hurry and likely to conceal undesirable "features". It may be in real life, but not in your pics.
Matt black photographs poorly unless you get the lighting just right. You want it high and not quite behind you.
If you are having issues getting a good shot still, a very light silicon sprayed onto the cloth and used on other plastics first will give a slight glimmer. Wash with dish water to get it back off.
Get the camera below the handle bars on low slung bikes, it makes them look less fat and cumbersome.
Get some nature in the background, it makes them look faster.
Light coloured (in this case yellow) rims should look stunning, but not with whatever is all over them.
Best of luck selling it, unfortunately gen 2s are so cheap these can be hard to flog.

Hi
Thanks for the advice, will try to get some good pictures.
Would it better if I sold the bike after removing the Plastidip, it does come of cleanly when u use the right remover. The silver blue color was not really popular was it.

Well i have been riding it daily for 10 months, the paint doesn't fall off on its own

I don't think the blue and silver was ever a sought after scheme, but that is a much better picture.
3/4 angle with sun behind and low camera height.
Looks sporty instead of pudgy.
At least with that picture you can show people what it looks like if they choose to remove your paint.

What surprises me is, that this hasn't made into the Optimistic Sellers thread.

Looks much better IMO.

I concur. If I was choosing between the two bikes and all other factors were equal I'd buy the blue one.
Clean up the black one and get better pics and you may appeal to someone, but personally I'd pay about a grand more for the less molested one.
Note: I do realise they are the same bike, but you have to look at your bike not as a seller but as a buyer.
