Default What is it worth?

It is time to sell my beloved 2007 Ultra Classic. My health has gone south, too far south to keep riding. I put 100,000 miles on this bike, kept up the maintenance at the Harley shop, and it is in great running order. Tires are new.

I listed it last week on Craiglist and ksl classifieds for $9,000.00. Am I being too optimistic or is this a fair price for this motorcycle? I have had two nibbles on my ads out of 360 views.

Your opinion? What should the price be?

I always like a white bike. Looks classy to me. 9k is retail. IMO thats alot of miles for someone that is looking for a used bike. I would leave the price at that for a few days and drop it if you dont get any more calls. Prolly end up selling for $7500.00 if willing to take that pain. Good luck


Of course this is just my opinion and if you take into consideration my user name then this post means nothing.

Don't wish to insult your ride. Someone I know just purchased a 2007 in great condition.
52K well maintained for 6K. The $7,500 range sounds more in line to me. Market has been down .
That color IMO adds a few dollars to it . You beat me I put a fast 75K on my 07 when I traded it was a great ride.

Default You got your money's worth

Sorry about your health problems. I think you got your money's worth out of the bike. As nice looking as it is, 4 or 5 grand . That's a ton of miles. Good for you.
Good luck with it.

Sorry about your health.

I won't make any statements about your bike (other than I love the color).

With that said, Last summer (prime riding time, highest prices) I picked up an 09 Ultra with a few extra's with 8995 miles on it (ya under 9000 miles) for a few hundred more than you are asking.
The market is soft, with that many miles on it the price will take a hit.
Again I love that color

a friend of mine bought an 06 electra glide classic with 20,000 last summer and paid $7600. Another friend has an 06 street glide with 25000 mile and has had it for sale a little over a year with no luck . he has it listed at $9500. I would slowly drop the price $ 500.00 weekly until u start getting calls and see where you end up. provided you are not in a hurry to sell it.

goodbirds,sorry about your health issues.
I bought my '06 Ultra for $7500, 4 years ago. It was high miles then,and just went over 100k last fall. I really don't think with that kind of mileage I'd be able to get my $7500 back out of it.
Maybe a poor comparison,mine being a year older than yours,but I just want to say I think 7k-7.5k might be a little more reasonable on yours..

Sorry to hear about your health

From the pics the bike looks in great shape, however if you are using the pics in your ad I would be concerned about the dates on the pics. Three pics show a date of 2007 one says 2011, was this the date they were taken or is the date stamp on the camera just wrong. If I was looking at the ad and saw a 2007 with 100K and the pics were dated years ago I would be concerned as to why you are not using recent pics and what is the shape of the bike today as the pics are 10 years old if going by the date.

With that said I think with the amount of low mileage bikes on the market today for a bike with 100K that is 10 years old realistically it would likely need to be in the 6K range to sell.
