‘07 CBR600

[BirdawgXX]

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.

Seems like crazy money for a 13 year old bike.  Are these particularly special/collectible where the low miles means a lot?  Just curios.

Have you heard it run. 13 year old rubber and varnish in the fuel system? 

 

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.

Cute 600.

Show him this.  This one has zero miles and comes in a crate.

I didn't want to be the first asshole to say it, so I slept on it.  Yeah, it's nearly double-priced.

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. 

[SwampNut]

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.

Nope ran and handled quite nicely, but that was all it was worth.

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....

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]

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.

Thanx for the laffs and heads up guys. I’ll just let ya’ll break it to him and not me. Sending him to this site with a big box of Kleenex tissues soonly.

Gay mans bike.  Nice!

I should shine up the Bird and put it on CL with a stupid price, maybe someone will get sucked in by the sparkly farkles.
