Hey All, Unfortunately I am going to have to sell my XB... With prices all over the place for these bikes, I thought I'd get opinions here on where to price it. Specs are: 2003 XB9SL w/race kit 3500 miles Corbin seat right side scoop Drummer catch can Precision engineering brake and shift levers, handle bar risers Ventura rear rack w/switchable grab rail and small bag Chopped tail Rizoma mirrors XB12 upper airbox cover American Sport Bike tall windscreen Later model sidestand w/mount Iridium plugs LED rear turn bulbs w/flasher Battery tender All in all a very good low mileage example... I have all the stock pieces too. Just put the key in and your on your way! Thanks for the input. Kaveman

In my neighborhood you'd be good to get 4,000 or maybe 4,500. Last year I picked up a similar equiped 9r with 15k miles on it at 3,800. One bonus mine had that you dont mention on yours is the updated belt system. Sadly accessories don't really add value to the bike |

If you have the stock parts, you're better off selling them separately. Other than the seat, the aftermarket parts aren't going to increase the price or hasten the sale. The corbin seat might not add any $$$ value but I'm sure it's waaay more comfortable than the stock seat so it might help sell the bike. |

Tanks for the replies! I think I'll post in the classifieds for $4500 and see where goes. I know the aftermarket stuff doesn't add much... I guess I can just put the stock stuff back on and fleabay the other parts. The Corbin transformed the bike in the comfy dept! Thanks Again Kaveman |

If it helps I bought an almost identical XB9s(same color and year even) last September for $4,000.00. It did not have many after market improvements but was otherwise in good shape with only 2500 miles. There was a problem with the front fork I didn't notice that will end up costing me whenever I get the money to fix it, but it is still rideable and very fun. I'd probably pop for $4,500.00 for yours if I was in the market. It is a Buell and if it is in good running condition the year won't knock the smile off the rider's face. |

Personally i'd expect 4,500 to 5,000 for it. Seems to be in very good shape! Good luck with the sell! |

Well, was looking at fleabay... And the XB's there aren't fetching much in the way of $$$. So I guess I'll be keeping my XB after all. The need for cash will just have to wait. Kaveman BTW: What was I thinking! Sell the XB?! |
