How much would you guys suggest on this? Listing wants 5500? Looks as if it was dropped on right side. 12500miles.

Great bikes! Love my '06. Just for reference, a non Badweb sponsor near me has a new '08 or '09 for $6000. Sure that isn't out the door, point is new and used deals are out there. Damage and 12K, I'd say NOTHING over $3000. Certainly not $5500. Swing arms are spendy, the one in the pick is rashed up pretty good. Same goes for the header. Parts alone new just for those two items would be at least $500. Less used. Let alone labor and time to fix. Looks like the right peg might have snapped off. |

Not trying to trash that bike or anyone, I'm just saying crash damage $ can add up quickly. Is the frame ok under that puck, etc etc? Good luck in your hunt! |

You can get a brand new bike for that price (for now). I agree with the ~$3000 price... again, for now... |

They also have an XB12XT, so they are no stranger to Buell's. I don't recognize the bike, I wonder if the owner posts here? |

The swingarm is $500 new alone. It will be hard to find a used one that isn't rashed up also. My parts book is in the garage with the bike but I think the headers are going to be about the same deal, $500 new and hard to find not rashed up. +1 to the 3K. |

I would keep looking. I just picked up an 08 with 700 miles for $5000. That was a damn good deal though. I've been looking around for months and I snatched it up right away when I saw it. |
