    7500 for an 01 with 11000 miles? 1500 more and you can get a new one.

    Why? They'll never get 7500 for it. Was there anything special about that edition other than paint?

    When some spode fails to get Yamaha to finance a new, $9000 R6 for them, I'm sure the dealer can manage to find someone that'll finance that $7500 bike.

    Windmill Cycles has always been outragious in price... When I was looking for my F2 back in the day they were selling them at new or more cost!!!


    Crazy I tell ya... crazy... and when I asked them about it they basically told me whatever buy a new one then... fuggers!

    MOMs is the same way Back in 02 when I bought my sprint they had an 01 with 8000 miles on it. I got my 02 brand new for less than what they wanted for the used one When I mentioned that to them they said then go buy the new one we will sell this one one way or the other.. Sad to say though not everyone has good credit and if you want a bike bad enough there are finance companies out there that will get you approved, but you will pay dearly for a long time to get that bike paid off.

    ya, my friend boopr looked at a Vulcan 800 at windmill cycles, they only wanted $1000 more for a used 03 with 4000 miles than the list price of an 05 leftover with no miles.
    she ended up with a used 04 from MOM's with half the milage for half the price

    I've been there once or twice and checked them out online when looking around for bikes, their prices are high, I think you pay for selection...nice clean bikes though...

    $7500 may be high for a selling price however, they can always come down in price, can't go up...
