Here's the "rub".....I have a similar GS500....2009 with 45,000 miles..

What are they worth?  Well....there are plenty 2004 thru 2009 GS with LOW, LOW, LOW, miles on them...like under 5K...and you can buy them for $2500 or less...

So who's gonna even look at a bike with 40K plus miles???

My bike looks and runs like new...but you just can't get over the high miles....

So to me...its worth a lot..and certainly worth a lot more to me than what I ever could possible get by selling it....I'm going to try to get another 45K miles out of it...then throw it away...

So what 's it worth to sell ....I'd say "nothing"...because of the market....

Can you find somebody to buy it?  Maybe..what would they pay?...it depends...maybe $1000 ???

I am looking for a replacement for my bike, knowing it won't run forever...But I would not even consider a GS with over 10K miles.......

So I just bought a Fz-07 and thinking about selling my Gs500. It's a 2006 Gs500f with 41k miles on it. It's got some scratches and the normal wear and tear. What would u guys think is a fair price in Northern California?

I bought Eleanor with 5,000 miles for $1,800 USD. That is not much scratch for such low miles. I'm inclined to agree with twocool here.
