Default Advise, 04 883

A buddy of mine bought a 04 883 for his girlfreind in 04 well they split up soon after, now he's wants to sell it. He said he would sell it to me for $5000.00 it has 95 miles on it and real clean never been droped he 's been starting it up once a week or so. So is this a good price?

That's a good price, providing everything is okay on the bike.

Sounds like a pretty fair price if everything is in excellent condition.

I checked the Retail Price with both NADA and Kelly Blue Book. NADA showed a figure of $4,955, while the Kelly Blue Book figure was slightly higher at $5,300.

Average Trade In value wasn't that high though, as the figure shown was only $3,545.

It's an average price......definitely not a screaming deal.

Offer him 4k.

Just listen to the bike. If it screams "take me, take me, take me" then give it a test ride. If it rides and runs better than you imagined, buy it. The price is not cheap enough to ignore warning signs or problems, but it is a great price if everything is showroom.
