I did try the search engine.
KBB and NADA are about $7k apart. Online adds are just as confusing.

I would greatly appreciate some info on a decent purchase price (from private seller) on a 2006 F4i.
As new, mind condition
Purchased in '07, 700mi
3year warrenty left

thank you!

 

when you mentioned 7k apart, do you actually mean that the price difference is $7,000 or was that a typo?

If the asking price is $7k http://www.sportrider.com/bikes/2006...fications.html

Shows the retail value at$8,500 back in 06.From knowing that would i pay $7k, no probably not.

 

Thanks for the reply.

I meant that NADA booked at around $6,800 and KBB booked itat only $6,100.

The bike in question has the specs I previously listed and I was wondering if $6,500 was competative to too much money for a 2006.

thanks!

 

It depends on if that's the bike you REALLY want. If I had $6,000 - $6,500 I would put that on a down payment for an 07-08 CBR 600rr (but that's just me).

Or you can take the money and buy an 01-03 F4i for $3-$4000 that may have a few thousand miles, and come with additional stuff I.E. bike stand, gear, etc... then that will leave you with roughly $2,000 dollars to do with what you like *cough* invest or fix/repair.
This is the start of bike season so bike sells well be higher than normal.

If you can wait on buying a bike, I would. BTW, I am not the biggest fan of the banana seat so I have a tendancy to stay away from me...that's me.

 

I got mine 06 f4i , 800 miles, mint condition, $4,700.....3 months ago
As it warms up it will be harder to get deals compared to when it was colder

 

so $6,500 would be a horrible or not even ballpark good price?

 

I got lucky, but on ebay I have seen this bike going for anywhere from $4500 - $6000
Like I said, as it warms up its getting harder to find a good deal.

If you have the money, buy a bike, ride and enjoy life....
check craigslist too...but ebay has the best deals....

 

I don't know how much "room" alott folks were planning to drop on with the listed price (cycle-trade and various city craigslist) but a lower-mileage '06 F4i seemed to average in the high $6k's.

OTD from a dealer on the same bike in 2007 as a brand-new '06 I guess would be in the high $7k's?

 

Purchased my 06 last Nov off showroom floor - 0 mi
