SR71BLACKBIRDXX Posted September 25, 2023 Author Share Posted September 25, 2023 Just chillin buddy. Thought about going to take a look at it. Just for the fun of it. What do you think is worth? 7-8k? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I'd say that's about right... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampNut Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I don't really understand the collector mindset or pricing. If you're buying this to show off that it's original, then the value is just random, right? Like there's probably not another one like it, or maybe there are a handful? So what's the value? If you're gonna ride it, well, then it's just worth whatever a low-mile bike is worth, which is maybe $5-6k? First thing you have to do is change tires, at a minimum.

DaveK Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 It would be very cool to own - but it's been sitting a LONG time. I'd be semi-concerned with other parts. For me... it's more about technology. I want the new shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Knievel Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 23 year old XX with not even break in mileage. Garage queen...and I wonder what issues it may have from never being ridden. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I bought my VFR a few years ago, it had like 2800 original miles. I knew the entire bike had to be gone though. Original everything. Fluids, battery, tires, you name it. The seller didn't seem to grasp the concept of this. He thought it was "road ready " If I brought that thing to a dealer to be gone through, it would have been a couple grand easy. I never tallied what I spent on it, but I'd say it was close to $1000 to make it safe and mint.

superhawk996 Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 There's a sucker born every minute, but I think finding one old enough to appreciate a fresh XX is going to be hard. I mean, it's hard to get this old while being that stupid right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkxx Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 If it is not worth it now, it will be. It's great that basically unused examples are around for the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXitanium Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 The production numbers aren't the same as the CBX, but really clean examples in the far future will appreciate. https://www.hagerty.com/media/motorcycles/this-factory-crated-1982-honda-cbx-shows-that-originality-is-still-king/ https://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/reviews/bikes/honda/cbr1100xx-super-blackbird-review-used-price-spec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) The consensus among some collectors is that this 2000 XX might sell at that price, but most think it'll more likely move at $8-9K to a collector. Ironically, it might have brought more if it had been left completely original (no dealer tweaking), kinda like a "barn find" (heh, heh, a climate-controlled storage find). If it's only destined to be a rider, its estimated worth is closer to $6-7K. The first year FI model (low mileage '99) is more desirable and somewhat more rare. Low mileage '96-97 XX (carbs) piques collector interest as well, but those are really rare. OEM originality, low mileage, and provenance are what really matter.

superhawk996 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 CA has the most bikes by a long shot at almost 1 million, but only ranks #37 in bikes per 10k people. Odd that states with shittier weather have more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXitanium Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 ...not how I took it. "Cheap Insurance compiled a ranking of the states with the most motorcycle owners using data from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Motorcycle registration figures were from Jan. 1, 2023, and were normalized per 10,000 residents using estimated state populations from the Census Bureau as of July. From Alaska to Florida, the United States is home to nearly 8.8 million registered motorcycles. California leads the nation in total ownership, while Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas round out the top five states. While the Lone Star State ranks high for having the most owners, it falls to 50th on this list with only 129 motorcycles per 10,000 residents, ahead of only Washington D.C., with 68 motorcycles per 10,000 residents" I feel WI would move up the list if that other stuff was added in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
