    Back in the day it was not considered the nicest looking offering from Ducati.

    For 9 grand you would want a new muffler to replaced the damaged one?

    Probably not, no. It depends what you are looking to do with the bike, you are comparing a super sport to a typically commuter bike.
    Is a $35k Harley worth the same coin as an H2? To me, no way!!

    CB400's are traditionally expensive..weather they're 'worth it' or not is up to the individual. Unsure why they are priced that way. They are simple, nothing special bikes, no frills, no surprises, what you see is what you get; but maybe that's why, similar to the Harley in paying for tradition. I do bet your bottom dollar the GSXR will shit out a lot quicker than the CB (assuming the manufacturing year was equal).

    My point was that this thread is for ridiculing muppets asking way to much for stuff. That CB should be $5k tops, though I'm sure it will sell for more.

    As to the Gixxer fucking out first, I couldn't see it. I'm willin to bet the CB is the first to start burning oIL.

    I know, and I'm challenging the view that he's being optimistic.

    Why should it be $5k tops? (I agree they're expensive, don't get me wrong)
    ..Why are Harley's asking price $25k when all you're buying is a metal brick with chrome that converts fuel to noise? Similar argument with the CB, because that's what the market sets them at. Doesn't matter what yourself would pay for it.

    I wouldn't call him a muppet for asking for that price. It will sell for more because $5k for a CB400 well below market, why would he ask for less? I just disagree he fits in with the rest of the links in the thread.

    Show me a CB400 >2010 going for $5k..no $6k and I'll agree
    Even in Japan, where the bike is manufactured you wouldn't get one for that!

    Looks like he doesn't want to sell his bike.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    My guess it's financed and they're trying to re-coup interest they got bent over for
