Question Is this a good price?

I am seeking opinions on the value of a bike I have seen for sale. The details are:

2007 Bonneville Black, 500 miles, One owner, $6250

Parts Added:
- TOR Mufflers
- Center Stand
- Tachometer Kit
- Vintage Tank Badge
- Dart Fly Screen
- Exhaust Wrap

Thoughts?

I don't think that is anything fantastic to be honest. I know a guy that just bought an 06 T100 with most of the accessories you listed and then some that weren't on your list for $1500 less than what the charge is for a regular Bonnie. Maybe I am biased towards the T100 but I wouldn't pay more for the Bonneville model.

Thats a brand new bike. How many of them do you think you are going to come across?

I thinks its a good deal - my advice is bring cash and offer $5800. Be prepared to pay $6k. Don't forget - the owner can write you a receipt for any amount.

500 miles ago that bike was $8500 out the door. Jump on it.

With all the extras and the fact that finding them used in my area is nearly impossible, I'd have bought it for that price.

The dealer by me is asking $7500 for a new '09 Bonnie SE. $6250 for on '07 Bonnie Black, even with the add-ons, just seems a bit much. I agree with Sal, go in at around $5800 and see what happens.
