What's my CR250 worth?

[REDRIDER]

Yeah i can see all sorts of replies here "hondas arent worth anything" lol

Id like to sell fairly quickly and at a resonable price, its definately not new but it cleans up extremelly well. I dont know how many hours in total but its given me a damn good run. Starts first kick, has been a mint bike for me.

Replaced - linkages, swingarm bearings, wheel bearings front and rear, fork seals, clutch basket and fibres, new chain and sprocket, new pipe (now with one slight ding). Piston and rings done a while back everything looked mint.

What do ya reckon..

forgot to say its a 2003 CR250 lol (own the bike that owned barty lol)

hi i reckon 3300- 3500 would be close to the mark.the market can be fickle but also there are plenty of dreamers on trademe trying to ask over 3 for pre 00,good luck its cool looking bike btw

[Ride it till the red]

It's only worth what someones willing to pay....
And these days it seems to be finding that someone thats the issue!

I'm in a similar situation with my 05 model except I'm in no rush to sell her (kinda attached haha). Haven't advertised her anywhere but here yet but I think I'd be expecting to get around the $4k mark and probably accept just under if that helps in pricing yours.

She definately looks tidy and it's how they clean up that sells them, and good pics like that one!
I'd say trademe should turn up an EASY 3 grand and up to a possible 4 depending on your luck and how much time you have, it really is a bit of a fingers crossed situation the more you start to ask.

Good luck!

quick sale 3k, but if you wait for the right buyer 3.5k+ easily. Good luck.

Whats the new bike going to be/is????

[REDRIDER]

hey rupe, yeah thats my thoughts pretty much, Id be happy with 3k and I think a buyer would get a good deal at that price. New bike in the pipeline, staying with the 2stokes but I dare not say what colour just yet.

[Rupe]

Orange I bet. 3k is pretty cheap I reckon

[Bradz]

that fact that its a barty slayer will add at least a grand..

[REDRIDER]

OK... so the bike is now for sale, I want 3k for it as it is if anyone knows anyone that may be interested, test rides available, you drop it you buy it lol. questions or queries 442 0463 im on the north shore ill upload more photos if anyone is interested. Will be on trademe shortly for $3500 ono ish

it might have got me on the last round at the 2man but it was 15 plus seconds off at the farm. Buy a 4t you know you want to even if you are going to join the grey haired club and go Orange.

[Reckless]

you are going to join the grey haired club and go Orange.

Whats this club I keep hearing of?? Only one grey one here that I know of, and I've got fuck all for my advanced years, all the rest are youg fellas?? Very hard to form a club of just one?
Let me know mate? Might finally be someone out there I can keep up with??

Lets see, there is, you, danger, ktmboy, camchain, noobi's dad, old school, warewolf, you're all old fuckers! and most of the people on orange bikes at wmcc rides are old duffers too. I guess it sounds like redrider is going through the male menopuase too.

3k is a bargin I reckon by the way.

Jeepers mate you'll get into trouble with all those names and I can't keep up with any of them! BUGGER!! what I'd give for 10 years of their experiance LOL!!

NA he's getting a 125 size frame 200exc, then bet him on it, just to really piss him off LOL!!! I hear they are pretty quick through the trees in a young fellas hands!

Just kidding!! I see him on a 250exc or the 300 (if he likes the torque better) or maybe even a Husky if its a 2T??

PS you goin out the sandpit Sunday? I might, like to get one ride in over the last 4 months before I have to ride the goldmines??

Fess up time, 09 KTM 250 exc, its actually vinny's old bike.
Funny...... I never bought into the colour debate..... but even before Ive got it Im getting stick from all angles. lol. Go on take ya best shot, Ill roostya next time im passing. lol

My reasoning for a buying a KTM
1. I dont want a 4 stroke (my opinion they are boring to ride) just my opinion
2. I dont like late model kwaka, suzi, yam, and I wanted a change from honda.
3. I ride 98% in tight trees and more technical stuff
4. the wife told me to buy one, and who am I to argue.. YUSSSS

I can almost guarantee you wont see any orange on it once Ive finished with it though. haha
Guess that makes me old, grey haired and menopausal.... lets not forget that next time Im passing LOL
