Scott9999 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 You might want to add the city/state location of your bike: cycletrader comps: R1200RT's 2016 30.6K miles $7,399 2017 53K miles $8499 2016 84K miles $8900 2014 20K miles $8990 ... plus many others. Every bike is unique, and these things aren't commodities, but the your price looks a bit high for the market, due to the mileage. FYI, and good luck on your sale! 2 Link to comment

Rockosmith Posted March 20, 2022 Author Share Posted March 20, 2022 It appears as if I have overestimated the worth of my RT. Revised asking price to $7500 and still willing to listen to offers. 1 Link to comment
freetime2247 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 $7,500 for a 7yr old bike with 117K miles. Good luck! 1 Link to comment
Boxflyer Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 This would make an excellent bike for someone that would like to get into Sport Touring with a proven bike. Knowing that the maintenance is up to date and it's been routinely serviced, this bike has lots of life left in it. This is just the kind of bike I was looking for last Aug when I was hit on my 2016RT and it was totaled. If I had not just bought another used 2017RT, I'd seriously consider this one. Good luck with the sale! 2 Link to comment
MikeB60 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I think this forum was better without comments from the cheap seats. If you're interested contact the seller otherwise move on. 7 2 1 Link to comment

Scott9999 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Mike's right. I should have sent my first message to the seller via a private message. My bad. Apologies! Link to comment

Rob Nowell Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I retired from teaching after 35 years. My principals often had to remind me, "Rob, it's not what you say; it's how you say it that gets in your way." 1 Link to comment

Comments are allowed, not always appreciated. I have no dog in this fight, but I feel that when a member here posts an item for sale, they are not looking to have it torn down in a public manner. If one doesn't like the price or the product, one should be kind enough to keep his negative comments to himself. Craigslist doesn't have a comments section, mostly because they would be 99% negative, and who needs that? This is a public forum, but politeness and decorum rule, and that should carry to sale items as well. If not, why put anything up for sale here at all? They could be listed many other places, but those that post here are looking to offer to a specific audience, a seemingly trustworthy and appreciative group, perhaps even giving first crack at a sale before listing in another forum. If I put something up for sale here, and the first comment is, you're crazy, that would not sit well with me. If the first comment was, looks good, good luck in your sale, sweet, thank you. Just my $.02. 2 3 Link to comment
Hosstage Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I also wanted to say to Rocko, that is a nice looking scoot, looks well cared for. Were I in the market I would seriously consider that bike, not terribly old, and a good price to get into a great bike, same one I rode in Europe 6 years ago. I was impressed with the whole machine and features. That bike is the reason I am on this site, made me reconsider my choices in bikes. Sorry to hear you are giving up riding (maybe consider a smaller bike to continue), good luck with your sale. 1 Link to comment
Scott9999 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 You're selling it at the right time of year. You should see a bunch of interest soon. It IS a beauty, and the black is a classic. Hang in there! 👍🍻 Link to comment

I am riding a 650 VStrom a bunch and am considering a Yamaha Tracer GT. Like you said, something lighter but still plenty of fun. 2 Link to comment
BamaJohn Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 FWIW...I know this bike personally, and can attest to the meticulous care it has received. jb 2 Link to comment
