Yes that's the one, thanks for the tip on the new bike comment, and socializing my bike, maybe an interested party out of this area-
Interesting comment on pricing, I'm asking $1k over dealer offer, in hindsight should have took the dealer trade in offer. Anyway will wait til spring and see what happens. What are you looking at fair price?

It's best to use as many classifieds as possible. I've had good luck with craigslist and cycletrader. Some dealers offer consignment sales. Fall is always a tough time to sell a bike, so keep this in mind.

A few years back,Cycle Trader had a deal that your ad would run until sold for a one time fee,you just had to call back to renew it.This was when they had the printed copies.
Dont know if it is still the same.

Here's my 2 cents...
I've sold 2 bikes in the last 2 years.
I found Cycle Trader to be worthless, and the ad just attracted telemarketers who called everyday wanting to list the bike on their site. Ugh!
Craigslist was OK, but full of scammers. Ugh!
The best tool I found was EBay. I sold both bikes to out of state buyers who flew in to get their bikes. The process was seamless and I was lucky to attract honest, sincere buyers. Great experience.
