Default Whats it worth

Need some help Im thinking of selling my 1990 600f it has 8000 miles on it. a F1 can, matching tank bra and seat skin. I have the original wheels and tires. I bought it from the original owner about 15 years ago. it has some scuffs and scratches on it but as far as i can tell its never been down and has all the original body work. Its white and blue. any comments would be appreciated.

tops, i would say $2500, and thats pushing it. not alot of demand for these older bikes yet. i would search craigslist, or ebay, and see what people are asking.
why sell it?

I hate to sell it but Im unable to ride it due to a bad back and Ive been holding on to it for years like this, I start it, cruise the neighborhood once in a while and then its back in the garage. Id like to see someone enjoy it as much as I once did.

I don't know where the original poster lives, but in southeastern PA - NJ - DE areas, the cleanest bikes always sell for $2500 to $3000. I have this problem where I need to always look on eBay and Craigslist for CBRs even though I can't afford a second one ;-)
I paid $2500 for mine (too much I now realize, but it was sort of a sentimental purchase) and have seen a clean 87 with those miles go for $2700 in DE. The 1990 is generally thought of as the most desirable in terms of those few extra HP, and it seems the 87s command a good price too since they are the very first Hurricane 600s. I would price it at $2500 and see what happens. Do you have any pics? I would love to see it... and would buy it from you if I had the extra coin right now!
