I'm checking interest on trading my bike. My girlfriend and I had a baby last December and it has become more of a commuter toy than anything, and I've lost most interest in taking off on long rides because it pretty much has to be a giddy up type trip for a few days over a weekend at most.
Bike info.-
2005 Vulcan 2000cc
25K miles
kyraken(im sure that isn't how its spelled) Grips
Kyraken adjustable hiway pegs.
Mustang seat with adjustable driver backrest, and fixed passenger backrest
Roadhouse long shot pipes
All other accessories are Kawasaki factory brand.
engine crash bars
windshield w/ lowers
luggage rack
saddle bags
I just put new tires (Metz ME880) on it July of '13, $650 at a local bike shop.
It does have a few blemishes in the paint, two nicks and a bubble at the bottom of the gas tank, just noticed it last week as a matter of fact.
It's a solid ride and VERY comfy on the road, love the bike but as I said above, it has just become more of a commuter toy with out getting ridden like a bike really should.
NADA shows its value at 7200-7500, somewhere in there and there's probably 1500-2000 worth of extras on it. Oh the stock seats and pipes come with it also incase you just don't like the mustang seat or loud pipes.
I'd like to see $7000 as the trade value, or $7500 cash.
Open to partial trades + cash from your end. I don't want to drop any coin on anything I'd want or need.
I'll trade for a running driving decent shape car, v8/4 speed preferable, but open to auto. Do not want a /6 if I can avoid it, but it wouldn't break a good deal if it was. I have an A-body already, so I'd like to see a different body style, and yes I know it wont be a special car or super nice for this price range, but something different is always cool. Of course A-bodies aren't looked over either.
I'd also trade partial for some of the following parts-
8 3/4 ready to bolt into the 65 Signet. posi-4.11 gearing would be nice, but maybe I'd accept something different. LBP definite.
a nice stout engine/trans combo
Wiring harness for a 65 Signet, I'm not really sure on this since Pretty much all of the harnesses will be old wires, which is what I'm already replacing. Maybe one of you that would be interested in the bike might know of someone, or yourself, that is skilled in making a quality, and CORRECT harness for trade.
That's about all I can think of right now. Really don't need a whole heck of a lot for the car since it's very complete, just doesn't run.
I also have a few Nirto R/C trucks that I hardly ever goof with anymore. And a battery powered E-flight CP pro (I think that's right) helicopter I'd trade off if someone were interested in trading but don't want, or have, cash, to throw in.
Traxxas revo 2.5r monster truck with a 3.3 motor. old 2.5 comes along with it.
Traxxas Jato 3.3 stadium truck.
BOTH of these were used to bash around the yard with so they ARE NOT sparkly clean. And they both do have a few broken parts. Nothing that a few 20 dollar bills wont fix tho.
If any of you have something that you think I might need, or want even, put it up! Worst I'll say is no. And if you think the value of the bike is off, then make an offer to what you think it'd be worth. I won't be offended, I promise ;)
