I'm guessing bought it then lost his licence on the way home, or bought it and scared himself shitless on the way home.

I understand it's brand new, but it's also been sitting as well. I think I'd rather just buy something that has 7-10k miles on it and have it be $5000-$5500.

There was a plated XR250R like that one in Raleigh for 1300 last month edit plated too, although I got confused he said it has a valid NC title and a maine street registration or something, I obviously bought something else Ribsauce fucked around with this message at 02:41 on Apr 1, 2011 |

Go check it out, if there's anything weird about the bike, walk. If it passes the muster, lowball the poo poo out of them.

this clean looking NC30 popped up on some local classifieds: http://www.manxads.com/?Title=Honda-VFR400R-NC30&ListingId=31091 Assuming it's in a decent condition, I'd be pretty tempted to snap it up and stick it in the garage ready for when I get my license... ...sadly I don't have the cash going spare right now

2009 Ninja 650 w/800 miles. $4000, Salvage title. Owner said basement flooded up to the exhaust and insurance totaled it. He bought it from the insurance company to keep it, but then found out MD would only let you have 2 salvage titles in a lifetime(he has 2 in the last 4 years).

Haha yeah no thanks on that one. If that was like a 2011 R1 or something - maybe. You're better off just finding a non-flooded one with a real title. While you might be getting a "good deal" at the start I think you'll have a much, much harder time selling the bike with a salvage / rebuilt title later. Or not. Maybe people really don't care about that kinda stuff but I personally don't trust someone to bring a bike back to 100% without me watching it happen.

I get a bit hard for 80s sport bikes. Especially 80s sport bikes that are low miles, seemingly nice shape and reasonably priced. http://lethbridge.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-motorcycles-sport-touring-1983-Honda-Interceptor-W0QQAdIdZ272318236 slidebite fucked around with this message at 01:34 on Apr 8, 2011 |

Does the bike lose some power having the back wheel so far back? I know it's suppose to be for dragging, but none of those people actually do that.

You'll deal with additional slop in the driveline, some additional parasitic loss, and spinning up the additional chain weight, but considering most of those bikes can pretty much break the rear wheel loose at will on a drag strip, it's negligible anyways.

I just started looking at motorcycles for the first time, and it really seems to me like craigslist sellers tend to completely ignore KBB. Do they just think to themselves "oh, I have an older bike. That means it is vintage. Vintage is worth more", or is KBB totally irrelevant for the 70s-80s UJMs? I'm in Seattle, so that may have some effect on how people price them as well.

Oh god. I just put up a local ad selling a couple of spare windshields I don't use for my ST1100. A guy contacted me asking if I wanted to sell my bike (was in pictures with the windshields)... which I'm not terribly interested in doing. However he asked me if I'd be interested in buying a low miles CBX Super Sport. Try to sell windshield, end up buying a second bike. Mrs. Slidebite will probably divorce me.

I don't even know what he's asking for it yet, just his buddy is telling me he wants to sell it, and by ages of bikes and photos my guess is the owner is late 40s/early 50s. What should I expect for a fair market price? $2500? No idea what those bastards are worth. They come up for sale so rarely it's hard to have a metric to compare them to.

If you could find a clean, low mileage CBX for 2500 that'd be pretty much deal of the century status. I've seen non-running barn finds in ok cosmetic condition going for 2k, occasionally a total basket case going for 1000-1500, and a good, clean runner that's stock will easily net 3.5-4k, with desirable examples pushing anywhere up to 7-9k.
