Title: Thinkin about selling my GS
Post by: Dazed on September 07, 2005, 01:37:08 PM
I just got my 04' GS500F new less than two months. It has less than 3,300 miles on it .. not enough speed for me you think 3,500$ would be asking to much It runs and still looks brand new nothing wrong with it

Roadstergal is an expert at selling GSs.   :lol:

You should take it to the dealer and see what kind of trade-in they'll give you for a GSXR 1L or a 'busa!   :thumb:   Those are a little faster.

Out of curioisity, what'd you pay for it and where? I've got an 04F a couple months ago for 4.8k out the door, and there's still another at the dealer for that price (SoCal). I've seen several 500cc bikes around here for $4k+. (A mix of GS and Ninjas).

I got my '04 GSF for $3200 out the door. It had some slight scrapes on the fairing, but that's it.

I've had my '04 w/ 2,1xx miles for sale here and in the local paper for $3,500 and have generated almost zero interest.  I think $3,500 is too much.  Try $3K.

Hrm... I had thought it was a 05, but perchance yours is the Yellow GS that parks at UCR?

But, good price ;) Guess I should have waited another month... Oh well, its nice to know I ride from the beginning. one shmuck I talked to wanted 2500 for an 91 Kaw 500... crazy. He really thought it had 2500 miles on it... not 102500...
