I havent owned a bike since I was 15, so I'm kinda outa the loop on the prices. A guy I know has a Yamaha 1100 Vstar with 1100 miles on it, it is chromed out with side bags and a windshield plus a few more extras. He is asking 7k for it but I think he will take less. My question is do you think its a good price, if not, what do you think its worth and also anybody out there with any knowledge of Yamahas please tell me what you think of them.....Thanks

Larry

5k...

What Pablo said, except drop it $500 on the initial offer, to allow for some haggle room.

Dave (A.K.A. Homebrew)

yup... My friend just sold his for 4,500

Thanks guys....I e-bayed the bike and 5k was about the top price....I think I'll offer 4k and see what he says....I'm 6'2 and around 250, do you think this bike is big enough for a man my size?

No way, get a KX125 and you'll be good to go..... :o)

lol....I had a RM 75 when I was about 7...That was a heck of a bike for a kid.

I bet Lc, I'd lowball the guy. Especially before the weather gets good for riding.

7K ????

add 2K to it and get a 2006 Harley Sportster!!!!!!

No lie....

New... Warenty ... HARLEY.... and resale can INCREASE not decrease... and then you'll be my "BOTH"

Brother on the Hog!

Actually, you can buy a 883L for $6995 plus, plus,plus.

A 883C is $7995,plus......

A 1200C is $9995, plus.......

A jap bike, any jap bike, $500.00! just kidding.

LMAO @ Roadhogs post!!

What year is this bike? and always remember Chrome Don't get ya Home! especially if you haven't riden since you were 15? an 1100cc is alot of motorcycle along with the Idiots who are on the road these days...

something to keep in mind when you gotta hit them breaks hard and give it (the Bike) a tug hard to the left or right? I'd grab something I know I could control for a summer or two to get back in the groove of riding...

Lcbogey ... sorry .... we really didn't address your question.

7K is a bit hig for a used Vstar, but it is low miles 1100 is nothing..... Sounds nice.... but i would offer 5K cash. If he says no... don't buy on emotion.... if he says no... say thank you.... and THEN GO GET A HARLEY!!!!!!! CHicks dig the hog my friend!

I'd pay the $500 for the Japanese bike, getting nothing higher then a 750, then next year get the big bike. It's been a while since you've ridden. Don't be so bold as to think you still know how to do so.

Good luck.

I have a 1972 Honda 750 Four (European release- more HP).......

$750....you haul.

I'd pay 10K for a Japeez bike .... How about that Hiyabusaa!!! (sp?) What a sweet bike! I sold my Ninja,,, so i could stay alive. That bike was So fast, people pulled out in front of me EVERY time I got on that bike,.,, The BMW is the finest... the Hog attracts the blonde...... and the speed rockets... WOW.... get a good life insurance policy.....

What year it is would help. As for me i like those Beamers,Moto Guzzi's .Suzukis. Goota watch thoe lighter weight Rice rockets , They izzz so Fazzt!

Road kill!

Andy.. is that an H or a K Model??

Hog
