Waiting on the dealership!!!

I wouldn't do it, but that's just me. Buy you asked for opinions...

Too much money. Mine was about that brand new zero miles last September. And his is out of warranty..

This sh!t is killing me!! LOL I didn't even think about the warranty issue.
 
Do you NEED one TODAY! Just calm down, take your time and find the right one. It took me almost a month to find my left over '08 in 2010! They are out there. Just let your fingers do the walking! Or should I say internet searching! :beerchug:
 
I've been talking back and forth with a guy today that's selling his 08 orange/black with 1700 miles. He's asking $8500 for it and I can get him to budge. The bike is completely stock.

Do you guys think this is the right deal? My thinking is that although this is basically a brand new bike, for $8500 I can get a low mile 08/09 that already has pipes and other mods that I dont have to pay for.

Opinions need asap.

Honestly, that's a pretty good deal. You're getting a bike that is pretty much just past break in on the engine and is still fully stock. I would much rather have something like this completely 100% stock because it is more likely to have not been ridden as hard. Of course there are exceptions to this case, but I would expect that if you compared my bike to a full stock bike, you would assume my bike has been ridden harder and used what it was meant for.

$8500 is a pretty good deal on that unit and especially if it's clean
 
I spoke with the guy a little while ago and he says his bike is still under warranty. How much warranty is left, he's not sure, but will check and get back to me tonight.

No, I don't NEED one Today. You are 100% correct there. I think it's a bit of the riding bug since the weather is starting to come around. :whistle:

I'm thinking about just doing some more searching and I'm sure there will be tons of bikes going on the market soon.

Justin, you got a heck of deal!! I spoke with the guy you referred me to today and he too said this bike isn't a bad deal. I'd be looking at roughly $9300 after everything is paid for. I just keep thinking with spending that much, I may be able to find a deal on a brand new left over like GsxrBots suggests. I sure would like to find that dealership though!
 
Guy just called me and told me he would take $8200 for the black and orange with 1700 miles....

Still feel like I can do better, but price isn't bad.

I would get it for that price.

I wouldn't wait. As people start getting thier taxes back, the availability is definately going to be an issue and the prices should start going back up.
 
I think I finally made up my mind!!! Decided that I'm going to get an older busa for now and ride it for a couple seasons, then spring for a brand new one later on. I found a stock 2002 with 8k miles 45 mins away from me. The guy is asking 6k for it, but said his bottom dollar is $5500. Being me, I'm still going to try to get him around $5200. He says the bike is in perfect shape, but he just doesn't ride it enough. He only rode twice last year and just had a new born, so really no time now.

While I'm down there, I'm checking out a 2004 with a custom paint job for $5500 also, but this one has 17k miles and I know the guy who is selling it has friends that race busas although he says this one hasnt been raced.

It seems that no matter how old a busa is, the value remains around 5k as long as its in good shape, so riding for a couple seasons will not result in me losing a ton of money when I sell down the road.

I think I'm leaning more towards the 2002 bike. You guys feel like that's a fair price, as long as the bike is in great shape?

Thanks for putting up with me this long. Hopefully pics of my new baby will be up tomorrow!!!
