BobZ Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Offered for sale is my 2003 Super Blackbird with about 11,400 miles. I bought it a few months ago from the original owner with about 10,450 miles. The bike needs nothing - it runs perfectly and I had all of the fluids (Amsoil 10/40 oil, Amsoil brakes & clutch fluid & Honda extened life Blue radiator fluid) changed at 10,490 miles in September 2011. Cosmetically it is in excellent condition except for a few tiny stone nicks on the front fender; contact me for more pics. The price is $5,750 (lowered from $7000). Here are a list of the extras/modifications: Custom Painted (based on 2007 VFR special edition with HRC colors) Ti-Force titanium full exhaust Manic Salamander throttle lock & Grip Puppies Givi windscreen Buell foot pegs, which are lower than stock Mototech LED tail Power Commander III & dyno tuned on Premium gas (PAIR system removed) LSL bars for a more upright riding position; Formotion thermometer & mounting bracket included Corbin Smuggler seat Clear Alternative front turn signal lenses Stainless braided Brake & Clutch lines K&N air filter (serviced when fluids changed) D&D chain in perfect condition White wheel tape Battery trickle charger/tender Recent battery (installed just before I bought it) New Michelin Pilot Road II rear tire installed about 500 miles ago Also included are 2 almost new outdoor covers and 1 interior dust cover, 3 unopened gallons of Amsoil 10/40 synthetic oil, 1 gallon of Honda coolant, 1 pint of Amsoil DOT 4 brake fluid, and a new Michelin Pilot Road II front tire (not yet needed). If the buyer is interested I will include a size large HJC carbon helmet, a size large leather jacket with a CBRXX patch on the back, and a pair of deeskin gauntlet gloves, which are all in excellent condition. I never thought I would sell it so soon (I sold a 2002 Blackbird to buy this one) but a worsening medical problem is making it more difficult to ride and enjoy. The bike is garaged/covered on the battery tender at my home in Palm Coast FL. Feel free to send me a PM if you have questions or want pics of anything specific. Thanks...Bob Z.

Byrdman Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Sorry to hear about your condition Bob, I can only imagine how hard it is to sell an absolutely stunning bike like that! Let's hope we can keep it in the family here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobZ Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 Me too...I think someone who frequents the board will appreciate it! By the way, I found a box in my garage with a brand new DID chain and new front & sprockets that I will include with the bike; the ones on the bike now are perfect.

BobZ Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 Several people have asked about the price so to save time and to let everyone know where I am at I would like to get $6500, which I think is more than fair considering that it is a unique, low mileage Bird that runs perfectly and needs nothing.

BobZ Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 I thought I had it sold for about $6250 but the person bought an older/less expensive Bird so since I am moving into a condo in early March I will entertain offers around that price to make it easier for me. I may be biased but this is a great Bird for a great price - it would cost thousands more to duplicate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobZ Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 I had a person offer me $6k for the bike and I declined, and he bought another Bird, which in hindsight was probably not smart on my part....$250 is not alot. So, I have decided to advertise it now for $6k firm - based on other Birds that are for sale this is a great price for a unique Bird with a lot of extras.

BobZ Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 Almost forgot: I will include a size large HJC carbon fiber full face helmet, a size large leather jacket with a CBRXX patch on the back, and few pairs of gloves for different seasons; all are in excellent condition.

BobZ Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 The bike is now on ebay so if someone is interested you can contact me via a PM here if need be since I cannot access ebay during the day to get messages: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2003-Honda-...=item2ebb60cc4c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobZ Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Not a big deal but I found an unopened gallon of Honda Extended Life Blue coolant, which I will also include along with all of the extras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobZ Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 The ebay auction ends this evening - if it does not sell and someone is interested get back to me and maybe a deal can be made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strek Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 The ebay auction is getting closer to your price and you have 20 bidders. I would expect to see some last minute bidding on it as it the case with ebay auctions. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobZ Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 It came up short of the $6k reserve price so I will see if I get any offers this week before I consider re-listing it, or waiting until the weather breaks and more people start looking for a Bird!

Strek Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Well maybe you can contact the high bidder and negotiate. Heck maybe they will contact you. I'm thinking if you put it back on in a month or so when the weather starts to get better it will get a better price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobZ Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 The high bidder contacted me and offered me $3200 cash...what a joke! A couple other bidders also contacted me but none have made offers thus far. But I was thinking the same thing about waiting a month or so - when the weather breaks more people may be looking for a unique Bird!

cityboy21 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 That basically says that if the high bidder would have met your reserve he wasn't going to pay for it anyway. One of Ebay's finest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAMZ XX Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 If your in no need to sell it right away, I would definately hold out. Warmer weather is coming and people will be getting possible tax returns, etc. I would hold out for another 30 days. Just my .02 cents. Good luck.

BobZ Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 I agree...it is too nice to give it away and it will be safe & sound covered in the garage until the right person comes along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobZ Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Beautiful bike, I cannot stop thinking about it since I saw it a couple of weeks ago..... Thanks, and it actually looks nicer in person...the low-res pics do not do it justice - I think that once someone sees it in person they will be buy it.
