Asking Price for my 99 KLR

[skaha]

Hey Folks

I am toying with idea of selling my bike to upgrade to a new one:

99 klr....52, 000 kms....95 percent highway....160 km daily commute

Stock except for supertrapp pipe (needs to be replaced soon_

-new trail wing 152....new sprocket and chain

-serviced at Burnaby Kawasaki every 10 ks

-oil changes done every 3000 kms

Thinking about asking $3500 obo

Is this a reasonable price....though I would get some thoughts on the matter.



Thanks

Skaha

I bought a 2004 KLR 2years ago, with 1800km's on it for $5000. It is all stock and no scratches. I hope this gives you a barometre to work with.

It sounds a little bit high to me. I bought my '99 a couple of years ago for $3800 with 11,000 Km on it. It came with 2 sets of tires, stock and aftermarket exhaust, aluminum bash plate, bar end weights, Dyna Jet kit, K&N air filter and fork/disk covers.

I paid $4500 for my '01 with 7,600 kms 4 months ago.

I think if I was looking at $3500 for a 99 with that much mileage I'd be hoping for a good handful of upgrades, accesories or mods. But if the bike is in tip top shape and had been maintaned really well, I'd think $3500 is a good ASKING price. I'm sure you could sell it for that, might just take you a while.

Two good places to get started with finding a value of your bike are

Kelly Blue Book and Nada Guides

You will need a Zip Code use 98230 thats Blaine

Remember to convert to Canadian Dollars

It seems to me most bikes here in Canada sell for about 10-15% more than the value from these sites

Hope this helps

Hey Folks

Thanks for the insights so far......they are giving me some measure of price....Tom ... I will check out both those sights...

Still open to other folks input.

$3500 seems a little steep for a 99 with 50,000+ km on the clock, you may end up dropping the price $500 before some one bites. Good buys on new 2005 KLRs going for $5995.00 Cad. I have a stock KLR muffler in my parts shed if your interested, it hasn't had much use.
