Fish Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 So the time has come to part ways with the trusty machine that I have had for a little over a year whilst I completed and obtained my full license. The bike is a 2019 model Yamaha MT-125 on a 2020 plate (late registration), so still has until June 2022 for warranty. It's currently on 6214 which will increase slightly upto this weekend when I collect my new ride. The bike has recently had a new JL HD chain and sprockets fitted and an 1800 mile oil service (last weekend) completed by the dealer I purchased it from. It is also fitted with some grip puppies which are easily removed if needed. The only down side is that the rear wheel has some paint chipping due to the original security chain I was using. The bike is finance free and I have been the only owner from new. It also has a DataTool tracker fitted for security piece of mind. I would like £3500 which seems to be the average going rate that I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 Have I priced it wrongly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Nah its about the right price If people click share and share it in as many places as they can for you then it could help with the sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peatear Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 You probably have already, but putting on fbook marketfullofwnkers will get some interest. As will preloved and others at least for free advertising. You will get a LOT of absolute wnkers though too. The price is right, people just don't want to pay it. You may be in it for the long haul if you want to keep it at that price (which I would). I'd mention they hold their price extremely well too. If kept in good condition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six30 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Price depends how quick you want to sell it , I haven’t looked what they are going for but if your pricing it in comparison with prices at dealers then people would most likely prefer to buy from the dealer as they get that reassurance if they got any problems 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My boss has just put their old kitchen units and countertops on Facebook for sale. Had one person assuming that the light fitting shown in the photo would be part of the sale and another who expected it to come with full printed instructions on how to install 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though the bike still have a manufacturer warranty until next June. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
