no thats a pretty reasonable deal. the bike i bought was in way worse shape, it needed new fairings, new ignition, new seat, new headlight lens etc. and the guy wanted $1800 for it

I'd start at $3,000, and let them talk you down. $2,000 is a really good price, closer to $2,500 would be more common to see.

That is funny......

Can't hurt to start at 2500, but if I was shopping and it was between spending 2000 on a bike, dropping 500+ into it, or just buying a complete bike for 3500 I would wait until I had the extra dough which is especially easier to do right now since it is 6 months before the next riding season....

Just my opinion.....

I agree, seafordguy. I wouldn't buy it for $2k, either. I know I could get a nice non-dropped one for very close to the $3k mark.
