we are going to need more details...........like milage.
You can go to kbb.com and nadaguides.com
and get a general idea of values.

New as in 0 miles , off the showroom floor . 2007 red

Ask your banker what the loan value of it is. If you can get it for less than that, its a good deal. On an 07 loan value is basically going to be the used value even if it is new.

MCN's -used- bike guide for Spring '10 lists an '07 multi standard for $8405 USD. Given the climate for used multis these days, I'd say that was a bit generous.

If I was looking at a 3 year old new multi, I don't think I'd want to pay more than $10 grand, and that's OTD with maybe a goodie or two thrown in. Bear in mind, that's just a WAG (wild ass guess).

Hes asking 10 before taxes . Wow after seeing the new one geez , that thing is BAD ! I think I would get 10 k useage out of the 07 more than 20k out of the new one though .

Sounds like y'all are in the ballpark, so hopefully you can wrangle a deal you are happy with.

The new multi is pretty bad. You probably shouldn't take a demo ride on one or you may start doubting that usage value. While I am very happy with my '08, after a couple of test rides, I know there is a 1200 in my future. Just don't know when.

I think 10K is a bit too much for this one. The second you roll off the dealer's floor, you have 3 year old bike. See what 07 Multi's are going for, perhaps add 1K for for low mileage, and you got your price. I would say 8K tops.

[SpeedwayRN]

If he sweetened the deal with hard bags, and centerstand, and extended warranty, do the 600mile service for free. I think that would be a good deal. Or do 10k out the door.

Theres a new 07 now for 9900 and a new 04 , yes 04 for 8500 . Humm , plot thickens .

I don't know. It's a 3 year old bike as soon as it rolls off the floor, but until then it's a brand spankin' shiny new one.

[SpeedwayRN]

Just give a list of all the free stuff you want with it. If you get half of what you ask for it's a good deal. Service will most likely be what the dealer is willing to throw in for free since most of all the 600 mile service is all profit any way.

No way would I consider 8500 for the '04 though.

Agreed , just wish I didn't know about new 09 Kawasaki Concours for under 10k also !!

That is a lot of bike for the money...but a completely different animal too.
