SwampNut Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I have no idea what a real price is for this bike, but: a. I lust for it because I haven't ridden one, but it looks like my thing. 2. The amount of time that it's been unsold is interesting to me, and makes me wonder about the general state of the market. iii. What's his next move if it doesn't sell?

BMW's have never been my thing but I've ridden with those who swear by them. Like us with the XX. This is a nice bike in very good condition. If you look on Cycle trader there is one other bike with the same color and graphics and more miles listed for 8995. There are some cheaper but I don't know condition. I spent February and March in Florida. Had a couple of bites but was 1500 miles away. Now back in New York. Next move? I may ride it to Florida and fly home. Gonna be in Tucson in August. I could drop it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 According to a collector I know (retired dealer), $5-7K or about $3K trade-in . . . He also said there may not be the usual Spring bump in used prices this year (actual selling prices, as opposed to asking prices) despite increased 2023 MSRP throughout the industry; sales are down across the board.

OMG Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 That right there is a steal, nicer than mine, a lot less miles and more gadgets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SierraKLR Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 These are great bikes that ride and handle very well. They take just a little to get use to as the torques does tend to want the lean the bike over at slower RPMs. They are ultra-stable at speed and dragging pegs can be accomplished pretty confidently. These handle way better than they have a right to. You can embarrass/surprise a lot of riders on "better" bikes fairly easily. The size disappears quickly with speed. High speed highway miles and these go well together. I loved my 2011 and love my new 2022 even more. Windscreen matching is probably the biggest issue. Even with the adjustable screen, the fit for each individual can be a bit finicky Followed by seat comfort....both have extensive aftermarket options.... . They are bullet proof in this vintage. If you buy one, get the GS911 from Hexcode that allows you to access all the setting to make changes and service rests easily. Service items are easy and readily accessible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALCXX Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Rode of of those for a few hours on twisty roads. I liked it. As been said before, it takes a little to get use to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The torque shift at slow speeds in cone patterns was interesting until you got used to it and could merely ignore it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotetcher Posted October 13, 2023 Author Share Posted October 13, 2023 36,651 latest mileage. Last bump and reduction. Buddy says he'll take $5500. Too much of a pain to get it to Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two sources I saw put the value at $5670-5900. The lower one was based on average asking prices, not sure about the other. Since neither source accounts for options, if this is a low optioned bike it'll be below those prices and vice versa. There's a couple newer but higher mileage police versions for sale for $4k.

MDRSK Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Thanks, Swamp. Long time since i saw that name. Good to see the old timers are still with their birds. My buddies are thinking of a cross country trip next year and i doubt my old body can make it on the bird despite installing VFR bars recently. Will try to get some lowering pegs as well, but those touring bikes are starting to look attractive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
