Look around, because I see much better deals all the time.
I agree 110%. The bike (car, watercraft, snowmobile, whatever) is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

For somebody trying to sell their bike, don't expect to even get close to KBB or NADA unless you're selling to an uninformed buyer. Added extras are worth NOTHING unless you find someone who wanted to do EXACTLY the same thing to their bike.

Trust me, I speak from personal experience (twice).

KBB retail is $16,875. I have three motorcycles and one scooter...something has to go.
Sent you a PM. Lets talk. I live very close to you.
