With the '05's selling for 9990.00, you will propably have a hard time selling at that price. Maybe you'll have to keep it! Good Luck!

Man, one summer too late. I bought my S3 last year and would have killed to find a deal like this --Mint condition, engine broken in, cool mods, and I live just 15 minutes away in Aurora. I'll spread the word, good luck.

Thanks all for the great comments and kind words. It'll make a rough summer but something had to give.

After looking around, I am dropping my price to 7700 but am removing the sargent seat and stands. All other mods stay with the bike.

Thoughts? I am going to list on cycle trader as well - other than that, any other good venues you can suggest? Now that it's gotta go, it's being driven very little and kept pristine which makes me miserable knowing it's going. That and the money it's costing me regularly make me want it out soon.

Thanks again.

If you have to sell it, it's best if you don't ride it. I was determined to sell my Daytona 1200 this season until I rode it day before yesterday. Now I'm not so sure.....

I hear ya. I am just basically getting it warmed up and back in the garage to keep the tires rolling. The battery is on trickle charge.

C'mon - don't any of you know friends that love our bikes? Someone is bound to be interested?

Thanks again in advance!

Free sargent seat to the person who hooks up the deal!

LOL. Sadly - she doesn't care one way or the other.

I manage the books - and my own bookkeeping sez it's gotta go If it was someone else telling me, I'd tell them to stuff it!
