$3500 is a fair price I would say but I am assuming this leaves you with out a bike. Are you okay with this? How long would you be without a bike? Don't sell your F4i then get impatient and by the first RR you see. What year RR are you looking at getting? I know the 07+ is a big improvement over the F4i. Personally I would do it if it doesn't leave me without a bike for long.

that's a mighty nice looking bike. hold onto it unless you're looking at upgrading to a liter bike.

The insurance went down when I got my RR over my F4i

Would I give $3,500 for that bike? In a heartbeat. Would I let it go for that price? Hmm, I might have to think about that.

Trust me on this point, cause I had been without a bike for a long time until my recent purchase, do NOT sell it until you get another one unless it's just a short time prior to buying your next one.

It sucks being without. Got mine about 2 weeks ago, rode it to work the next day and over to my friends house the day after that. Since then it's been in the garage stripped down as I work on it a little each night fixing things that were either not to my liking or just needed repairing and i'm also installing the parts i've ordered as they arrive. So even though i've only ridden it less than 80 miles, it makes me extremely happy just knowing it's out in the garage and if all goes well I should have it fully back together within 8-10 days.
