Hi Guys,
Tomorrow I'm going to look at this bike on Craigslist.
My link
I know there's not a lot of info there about a stock low-mileage bike, but what do you guys think about the price? The seller tells me he buys and sells bikes as a side business, and thus I think the price is a litle high, but that's not a huge problem for me as my wife has a big problem with my doing a solo long distance fly'n'ride to and from the places I've found most of the available AEs (FL, TX, CO, etc). I'm in RI and this bike is only 25 miles away, so paying a premium to keep peace on the home front represents a lot of value to me.
I had originally planned on getting an '06 with up to 20K miles for about $7K, so I'm paying an extra $1.9K for a lower mileage, 2 year newer bike, and a MUCH happier wife. And we all know it's hard to put a price on that last item.
Any comments or opinions are greatly appreciated.
