What is a good price for a 2004 or 2005 used R1? By good I mean...if you set out to by one what would you expect to purchase one for. Also with resonable mileage and clear title with no scratches or dents.


Thanks

[ochlocracy]

if youre going to ask a question you might as well ask us a real one...how many miles, what mods, kept outside ..garaged....? tires...... under warranty still? etc etc

hahah after looking at your post again,
its pretty obvious youve never ridden a bike (or atleast owned one before) and youre going for an R1 huh......tsk tsk tsk

NADA and KBB are crap here in NM. NOBODY goes by their numbers. it is usually $1K to $3K higher here compaired to book for R1's and R6's depending on condition.

Price is also dependant on season, I know at least here, our prices go down 10% to 15% in the off season, but they can go up 10%-20% in the begining. When are you looking to buy? Are you willing to fix it up? are you looking for a wheelie machine or a race bike? like many have already said, these are all factors.

If this is your first bike, take it easy. Don't get a bike to impress anyone, or test yourself. just my :2cents

If you are going to get a R1 and you have never ridden before get life insurance.....

If you are going to get a R1 and you have never ridden before get life insurance.....

you might even get a better insurance rate if you link bike and life insurance with the same company :thumbup
