Just wondering, if im asking to much for my 1125.. Im asking 4000 but I dont seem to get any bites. Or am I just being impatient? Not looking for anyones interest in buying the bike, just some advice on what to sell it for, or a better way to get it sold. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/21/ 596426.html?1285720779 |

Unfortunately I think folks are actually researching 1125's before buying them. All you need to do is read a couple of the Buell message boards to turn a buyer off of an 1125 .... Sad but true ... |

Rebuild makes it tough, and so does the fact that the majority of the country (outside of FL, TX, and SoCal) is prepping for non-riding-wintertime. |

The salvage title will make selling any vehicle hard. |

"Buell message boards to turn a buyer off of an 1125 .... Sad but true ..." go on an Audi board, a BMW board, a honda VFR board....you wont buy anything cuz the people on the boards are bitchin..have owned all the above, and if i only read what was online, wouldnt have bought anyof them, and they ALL turned out to be great products!...and my 4th Buell an 09cr is Fantastic! |

Fire sale they sold new 2010/2009/2008s for 5k A salvaged titled 08 needing some work it will take the right buyer at that price. |

I agree with 99buellx1. You should get EVERYTHING fixed on it to help with the sale of it. |

bobby - 2500 is way to low. It is almost degrading to sell it for that much. All in total include, buying the bike it took 3500 to get the bike to look the way it is now. 3500 cash would take it. But everyone else. Thanks, I think ill take consideration in fixing the 2 parts and maybe use some more resources like cycle trader, ebay. Reducati has a good point also! |

Plus in most states insurance company's won't even insure a salvage title bike. |

sell it as a track bike or part it out. |

I was not trying to degrade you. Sorry if I offended. |

I have to disagree. The bikes sell used for less than 5K. A damaged bike that's been partially rebuilt and has only a salvage title is not going to be worth much at all when there are still plenty of low mileage bikes to be had. Sometimes reality is a bitch. |

I'd bet you'd make more by parting it out, although it will involve a lot of work on your part. I parted a car last year and made over double the amount of the highest offer for the complete car with a clean title. |

Gofastalot99 has a good point. If you decide to part it out watch the flea bay sales for a while to know what the market is doing. add it all up and see if the results please you. |
