2005

[brad]

Hello Friends,
Time to sell my 2005 Hayabusa with 12,500 miles on it. HMF 4 into 1 high mount carbon, bradied brake lines,  Brembo raidal pump master cylinder, new chain and sprockets, cylinder head has been ported and slightly (surfaced just enough to get it flat again) , new tires, small airbox mod, tapered roller bearings(steering neck), timing retard eliminator, new slave cylinder rebuild kit(just installed), plastic is in good shape and its never been down.
I could use some help in trying to figure out what I should ask for it when I put in it Cycle Trader.
I live in the San Francisco, Bay Area.
Time for me to take the plunge and buy a home.
Please advise and thank you.

Brad

Go to kelly blue book and find a happy medium between retail and trade-in.

7200 to 8000 would be my best estimate.

+1 on the moving to the midwest idea!! Very cheap!!

 

[brad]

Thank you all. The midwest idea sounds like I can have the best of both worlds.

Honestly , With all the Mods you've done I'd say at least $9500

Buy a house and KEEP the Busa

I bought my '05 Busa in Feb 2006 from a private owner, for $8K. It only had 2200 miles on it, and he also threw in an Arai helmet, official Hayabusa jacket, the original cans and some other stuff.

Hope this helps.
