Alot of money for a used X-1. | ||

It says "$8000" invested but it doesn't say where the investment was applied? (I suppose that could have been a really expensive polish job on the tail section) | ||

I don't like to slam people but he's got to be kidding! I think the $8K includes the purchase of the bike, the helmets, jacket, etc. If that was the case, I could say I have over $15K invested in my 1998 S3T (purchase price, interest, pipe, aircleaner, tank bag, Corbin seat, etc, etc, etc). But it's still only worth about $4500 (on a good day). | ||

Poor guy's going to have that for sale for years. | ||

"invested" may not be correct financial term, rather more like "emotional investment". That moneys gone dude, and it ain't never coming back... But I empathize, I think I have easily $8K in my M2 already, and still finding thing$ to do to it... Have you priced carbon wheels lately? | ||

Carbon wheels? Ouch! Hurts my wallet just looking at them. Would love to have them though, along with a RAM SSSwingarm. | ||

Yes. Worth almost but not quite $5000 I think. You don't "invest" money in a vehicle. you SPEND it. I "invested" in my X1 too. $9000 initial cost +1100 extended warrantee + 280 Air cleaner +2000 10K mile servicing (five I think) +2000 78,000 miles of rear tires +1000 78,000 miles of front (half as many) + 170 first broken belt (sportster belt) + 140 second broken belt (XB12X belt) + 740 tranny work for second gear set + 230 clutch plates See? mine is worth more. |
