Sounds high to me. I got a 2009 1200 for 6700. 950 miles on her.

Most lending institutions use NADA values & 2009 Iron883 retail is listed @ $5735 (low) to $6705 (high) so the dealership's on the high side, but below the largest value. I recommend you offer $6200, but keep your Ninja & sell it on CraigsList...you'll be better off...JMO.

Good Luck!

Couldn't agree more. Should have no trouble selling your bike on CL!

Now is the time to look into a brand new leftover. Dealers are motivated to get rid of old inventory once the new models roll in.
