Just gone through the whole looking for a 250f and I'd say yours seems about the right price. Pitty about the rad, but it's had engine work.

What about putting it on for a $1 no reserve, pretty scary but when I was looking they were all finishing for the correct amount. But as it starts low your likley to get more people to come and look at it than if its priced along side a load of similar 250f's.

make it start at reserve. when i see something not at reserve i usually skip on to the next.

half the people you ask what the reserve is will say something gay like bid and find out, or not telling. which is a waste of my time.

put a price and people will either be interested or not, why hide it?

also, if you want a means of lowering the price more without losing money, sell the mufflers seperately, i have a mate who would probably buy them if the price was right

Agree with Boooom, start = reserve is heaps better. I hate the people who don't let you kow the reserve, more interested in knowing what I need to spend rather than guessing.

Yeah, might see if i can get the rad fixed. The engine work was only due to it blowing up lol, and i forgot to update auction... had a few more hours added since. As for $1... fuck that. Waaaay to scary, itd prob end up at about 4500.

Tried twice at S=R... no luck and fuck all watchers. But ill try that again, thanks.

I would try and sell pipes seperate... If i could get the bloody spacers off the mid pipe. Ill try again though... Maybe heat them or something. I have no idea what they are worth though.

dude, without the pipes the bikes worth less with less appeal,selling the pipes would be the worst thing you could do, go the lower reserve option and have a friend bid as security,after puting the factory pipes on mine once i cant believe anyone would buy these bikes stock! they are so flat at the top its not funny.

tell people the reserve is 5g's, it will sell!

if he sets reserve at 5000 he would get 5000

or if he sells the mufflers for 400, he could sell the bike for 4600

a lot more people are going to be keen to buy an 06 crf for 4600

4600 for a 06 crf is fucken cheap

5000 is just a good deal

i know they go rubbish standard, but most people buying them either dont know this or dont care

which part are you missing?

crf with mufflers $5000 = $5000 good price, but not eye catchingly great
crf without aftermarker mufflers - which most buyers dont really care about = $4600 - really cheap


seller still ends up with $5000, but sells his goods faster = win

Yeah i can see the point in this. I dont actually see whats wrong with the standard pipes though. As far as i remember it went way better than my pc piped 04

I bought them second hand off a mate anyway (With less than 5hours use) so im not gonna take much of a loss

Just realised wont be able to contact your mate till tomorow no money on my phone

I may have a mate that would be keen. Won't have cash till he's sold his car tho so won't get your hopes up too soon. Personally I'd rather have a bike with standard pipes but that's just me. My CRF went way beter with it's pro circuit pipes than one without.

huh? that didnt really make sense...

ud rather one with standard, but it went better with PC pipes?

Between us KB'ers your mate could probably find a better CRF than mine, mines been thrashed more than your average CRF, riden like a 2stroke, 1 gear down revving its tits off, lil faster that way haha. Its had some pretty decent crashes as well. Im sure its fine, but just dont want anrgy KB'ers after me cause I sold their mate a lemon haha. Then again, theyr probably all thrashed to some degree

"most' people being who exactly?
the pipes dont add value, they add appeal, throw away the pipes and you have just another 4t with a hundy hours on it!
people want bikes with a few after market mods for there money,not a stock pig they have to race up themselves!$$$
without the pipes its not even worth 4,500.

without the pipes youd nearly get me buying it for $4500, and i have no desire to own one

hell yes it is worth 4500 without pipes. Id have no trouble selling it for 46 - 47 without pipes.

those bikes you have listed have way more hours than mine or have been raced... they will sell soon. i know someone who sold their std 06 for 5grand no worries with cut down fmx plastics and a shaved seat

when i buy a bike i dont give a shit about the mods on it tbh, i just care about the condish of the bike and mainly the PRICE, id rather mod it up to suit me.
