Default Sale Price Advice

Just inquiring....

I have a 2009 Kawasaki KLX250S which I'm embarrassed to say has only 649 miles on it.
Purchased it in 2011 with 168 miles on it.
As you can see I haven't put any miles on it to speak of.........for many reasons.

No time
Riding my Goldwing
No trails close enough
excuses excuses...

Regrettably considering putting it up for sale next spring when the market will be better.
Asking you guys what you think I could get for it?
It's as clean as you can get other than purchasing a brand new machine.

Uni multi-stage air filter
FMF powerbomb SS Header
FMF Q4 Exhaust
FMF titanium heat shield
MSR Racing - MX waffle hand grips
DMP-Flush mount LED rear turn signals
TCI windshield
Dynojet kit
649 miles

Someone's going to get a nice bike.
Get some photos of it on something green, and not icy snow stuff.
That should help.

Low miles and well cared for? Ask a premium and go market it. I'd say ask $1K less than a new one. You have some good mods, but they rarely pay back.

List it on forums. Here. ADV. Maybe you have some local ones too.

I agree....I intend to take some new pictures.
For this thread, the only pictures I had are in the winter.

I'm biased but this bike is absolutely mint.....I'm **** about taking care of things.
She starts and runs perfect with the mods I installed....better than new.

I had a lot of good dreams about this bike when I purchased it, but just disappointed.......mainly in myself for not enjoying it like I should.
Life is just to darn busy.......I can't stand to see nice things sit and not be used.

Thanks much for your reply......

+1 to everything IDRIDR said. The mods aren't worth much at all when selling.

If you want to sell the exhaust separately let me know.

Sorry but she gets sold as-is.............I have it jetted for the Q4 exhaust and she starts/runs perfect now.

I listed it For Sale here on this forum and other places just in case someone is looking for a great bike & good deal now, but I won't actively sell it until spring when the market is better.

Thanks for all the comments.
