BirdawgXX 69 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 A guy I work with is trying to help sell an ‘07 CBR600. He’s looking for $9,000.00 or best offer. It’s got 420 original miles with zero mods, except for the rub-sticker that is sometimes put where your crotch rubs up against the tank. Not a scratch on it from what I can see. I have no skin in the fight, just trying to help a seller find a possible interested buyer. Located in Maryville, Tn. PM me if interested. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
superhawk996 2,436 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Seems like crazy money for a 13 year old bike. Are these particularly special/collectible where the low miles means a lot? Just curios. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
XXitanium 1,440 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Have you heard it run. 13 year old rubber and varnish in the fuel system? It is a nice looking ride. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is a nice looking ride. I have not heard it run. I thought the price sounded about twice what one of this age sounded what it might be worth to somebody that may be actually looking for one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DBLXX 2,245 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) Show him this. This one has zero miles and comes in a crate. Edited December 29, 2020 by DBLXX 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SwampNut 8,756 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I didn't want to be the first asshole to say it, so I slept on it. Yeah, it's nearly double-priced. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jcrich 178 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 So 2 years ago I sold a tracked out 07. Ohlins 25mm cartridges in the front, Penske shock, Yoyodyne slipper clutch, Woodcraft case covers and a clean title for $3500 to provide some perspective. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SwampNut 8,756 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Now that sounds like a steal. Anything wrong with it? Maybe this is one of the people caught up by a scam dealer where they end up literally paying double by the time fees and interest are added. AKA, RideNow AZ. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jcrich 178 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Nope ran and handled quite nicely, but that was all it was worth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blackhawkxx 2,805 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 My guess is he is asking that price because of "It’s got 420 original miles with zero mods". I know what everyone is going to say but if he finds that one guy that really wants a new one.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ironmike 193 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 There's zero collector interest (yeah, I made a few calls) in this despite the low mileage. The general consensus was under $3600 for a private sale & maybe a grand (or a bit more if financed) in trade value to a dealer with a ready buyer in his pocket.

superhawk996 2,436 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 The value doesn't appear to be that low, at least from the asking prices I saw on Cycletrader. Private seems to be averaging around 4500 and dealers are 6ish. Lowest miles I saw was under 2k, I wanna say it was around 1,500, I think they were asking 6ish and it was marked sold. Miles on the rest were around 5k to 30k, nothing over low/mid 30s. Not a single one was listed for under 4k except a salvage that was marked sold. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
