[QUOTE="MotoHero, post: 1471717, member: 27398"] Good Afternoon from Arizona, If you are not set on a year or color the Cycle Trader search works great. Everyone I contacted provided the VIN or I would give them the link to Yamaha Recall Check so they could show me the results. Recalls included the 2nd gear, brake switch, and 2 ECU flashes were common. I searched for 2013-2023 under 50k miles nationwide then sorted by lowest price. 2013-15 were $5k-$8k and 2016-19 were $8-$12k. Get close up photos of the mirrors and the left side upper fairing for scratches; these are the first spots to hit the pavement going slow or fast. A couple ads said slow dropped once but the scratches were so bad it was obviously going faster and one it was certainly multiple drops. I ended up with a 2013 at 40k miles for $5k in excellent condition. The bike was original owner long-distance rider with service records and kept inside. Private party sales are tax free here in AZ so that also factored. Enjoy the search, Dwayne [/QUOTE]
