Is $4,000 too much to ask for a '06 KLX250s, with 1500 miles?

Good condition, no handguards (stock)

 

I'd say that might be a reasonable starting point to give yourself some haggling room. But if I were buying, I'd say that'd be a little high, so I'd want to negotiate it down.

Kelly Blue book suggests $3660 retail value assumes excellent condition. So you'd need to factor in mileage, any aftermarket parts you might have on that might affect the value, etc. Trade-in says $2500 and is what you might expect if trading it in on another bike or something.

Please tell me you are asking about this for a friend and not your bike. [&:]

 

Yeah i would say that is a little high for that many miles on a bike. I was thinking more around the 2000-2500 range but you could start at 4000. and see where you get. good luck with the seling.

 

Thanks, I think Ill try 4, then back it down to 3500 pretty quickly.

 

This place has been trying to sell this brand new 2006 for $4195 for over a month with no success.

Ebay has messed up used car and vehicle prices something terrible... people think they can get alot more for what they have because one like thiers went for that on ebay.... wrong....

 

Bummer.... Why are you selling.

 

My own wants and desires...

... I would really like to have a Wr250f. I want a stock bike with more power, better suspension and not the dual sport clutter for something I hope to race (Hare Scrambles) and when I ride hard on my track

The KLX was a great bike for what I bought it for almost a year ago, but I think my needs have changed. I don't want to beat my KLX over the head to get it to do what the WR was made to do.

 

Well, hate to see you go...but a guys gotta do what a guys gotta do!

 

Doesn't mean he has to go ... I'd love to see some photos of your WR if you get one. Maybe throw a coat of green paint on it and we'll even pretend its a Kawi
