• ZERO- WHERE DID MY AD GO?
    • It has likely been deleted for running egregiously afoul of the rules below. Feel Free to try again

    1- DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SELL THE FOLLOWING ON BARF:
    • animals, though free re-homing is ok.
    • anything illegal.
    • drugs, legal or not.

    2- Sellers, for best results... please read and follow these instructions:

    • Asking price [MANDATORY] in the BODY ONLY. DO NOT PUT PRICE IN THE TITLE
      • motorcycle or other vehicle:
        - make [MANDATORY]
        - model [MANDATORY]
        - year [MANDATORY]
        - Pictures [FIRST THING THAT WILL BE ASKED FOR IF YOU DON'T, BUT NOT MANDATORY]
        - mileage
        - title info
        - current condition
        - maintenance history
        - accident history
        - location
      • If selling riding gear, include:
        - size in the title of the thread. [MANDATORY]
        - in your post, include: intended gender/body weight/height/inseam/waist range that best fits the item.

    • Do not include the price in the title. You won't be able to edit it later. Put the price in the body of your post.
    • DO NOT INCLUDE LINKS TO 3RD PARTY SALES SITES Copy/paste your ad to BARF and make sure it includes the info above.
    • Edit your original post and change the price there... many buyers will not look beyond that point if you change the price later on further into the thread. Also, remember to add SOLD to first line of the first post when the item has been sold.
    • Please use the "Report this post to a moderator" (
      report.gif
      ) option at the lower left portion of the post if item is sold or to report erroneous posts or threads, and it will be taken care of.
    • With any indication that an item is sold, the thread will be locked by moderators. It is not fair to other valid ads to be pushed down the list when side discussions bump a sold ad to the top of the list. Moderators will do their best in changing the title and adding a 'sold' to the beginning of the title to save a few clicks for others.


    3- Buyers, BEWARE!!!

    • Pricing - Know the current market value of the bike. Check Kelly Blue book, NADA, CycleTrader, Ebay, Craigslist (even though some people on Craigslist are asking non-realistically high prices and will never be able to sell the bike at their asking price), and know what the current market value of a similar bike is before considering a purchase. Consider the maintenance work or fixes that YOU need to do to the bike, and factor that into the price. It is ok to pay more for a bike that has had all of the maintenance work done to it recently, or pay less and get a bike that needs some work, but you must know this in advance and be ok with it.
    • Inspecting the bike: if you are not experienced yourself, have a mechanic or an experienced friend check the bike before making a purchase. Crashed bikes:This is even more important if you are buying a bike that is being sold at a cheaper price with damages that the buyer is required to fix. In these cases, doing a frame check that will show any frame/fork/geometry damages is HIGHLY recommended. Do NOT simply rely on the information that the seller is providing, even he/she may not be aware of all the problems. Have the crashed bike checked and know what you are getting into.
    • Clean title, Salvage title A clean title doesn't mean the bike is free of serious issues. A Salvaged title doesn't mean the bike may have any problems. Every case is different. Some bikes are seriously damaged in a crash, but an insurance claim is never made on them, so they still have a clean title. Some bikes have had mostly cosmetic damages in a crash, but the insurance company decided to pay off the bike and salvage the title rather than spending the money to fix it. Know what you are getting into and don't make any assumptions based on what the seller is telling you.
    • Registration: Know about the current registration status of the bike. Check with DMV if you have any questions about any possible back fees and other title/registration questions (out of state title, no title with bill of sales only, etc.) before purchasing the bike.
    • Some additional tips: You can find some more useful info here: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=216958

    4- DO NOT make your opinion known in the seller's ad

    • Comments within a sale thread should be on topic and educational. Aggressive critiques and inside jokes will not be tolerated. Constructive dialogue is a valuable feature of the barf classifieds section and community as a whole. Flame wars and unsubstantiated accusations help neither seller or buyer. Don't fuck it up, because the next step is disabling the "reply" feature entirely.
    • If you disagree with a price, keep it to yourself. The seller has set the price. If you don't like it, don't buy it and move on. If you really feel strongly about it, then PM the seller.
    • If you are interested in an item, feel free to PM, email or contact the seller privately. Feel free to post if you need clarification... however, your post should be in line with above mentioned rules.
    • If you are aware of a serious issue with an ad (SPAM, stolen goods, a frame damaged bike being advertised as a 'never crashed' bike, etc.) please PM a moderator about it.

    5- DO NOT SPAM the classifieds section on BARF

    • Spamming entails using only the classifieds sections of BARF without taking part in other sections of BARF (regardless of whether the ad is for a personal item or a business.) The appeal of BARF classifieds is to enable and connect BARFers with some established history on BARF to one another.

      BARF isn't craigslist, ebay, cycletrader, etc. Buyers who are looking to buy from random strangers do so on one of the above mentioned sites. Those who only post in Classifieds sections and don't take part in other parts of BARF are no different than any other random sellers on Craigslist, etc., and should use channels other than BARF to try and sell their items.
    • If you're affiliated with a store/shop, please contact budman regarding sponsorship options. ALL non-sponsor commercial posts will be deleted. Site sponsors should post using only one account that is assigned a BARF SPONSOR tag.
    • We encourage the use of the classifieds by active contributing members. New members may post in the Classifieds forum after establishing minimal history on BARF (15 days and 15 posts). If you actively attempt to circumvent these minimum requirements only to post in classifieds, your account may be suspended. After reaching these minimums, posting only in the classifieds without taking part in other sections of BARF may result in being banned from BARF.

    6- DO NOT repost funny/strange/not-related-to-you ads from Craigslist or elsewhere on BARF or anywhere else for that matter.
    • No reposting
    • No reposting
    • No reposting. If what you're about to post isn't for sale BY YOU, don't post it.

    7- SELLING FOR A FRIEND:
    • Is not allowed.

    8- Feeler, Testing Waters etc:
    • Is no longer allowed.

      • If you are unsure of the fair price of your item, use the search function to research other similar items, ebay, craigslist, nadaguides, kelly blue book or whatever else is applicable. The classifieds section is not a discussion forum, thus not the place to be asking for opinions on market value that might lead to massive gray areas of conversation that violate preceding rules outlined above.
  • There has been a recent cluster of spammers accessing BARFer accounts and posting spam. To safeguard your account, please consider changing your password. It would be even better to take the additional step of enabling 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) on your BARF account. Read more here.

BIKE NO LONGER IN MY POSSESSION

Relocated from SF to Salinas. No longer need a commuter bike and so it is time to trade in my alias for mud'n'lace instead. Bike is in Salinas.

Excellent condition, clean title in hand, registration current through April, serviced at specified mileage intervals. Due for 18K service in 300 mi, but that is a cheap one. Valves do not need to be done again until 24K. Suspension currently set up for 125lbs.

UPDATE: RECALL PERFORMED AND BIKE CONSIGNED.

I understand selling the ninja but you are so close to Laguna Seca and Hwy 1 south of Carmel. This bike should be a keeper!! well seems like you are interested in a dirtbike for Hollister

Anyway, awesome bike and GLWS!
 
Thanks!

This was and IS my dream bike, but being an experience junkie, I have been itching to transition to dirt ever since my first dirt bike camp - and there have been many since. She is a sweet bike, and so I've actually been dragging my feet about selling her for an entire year; the timing is finally right.

And yes, it has been an honor taking out to Fort Hunter Liggett, Cachagua, and Laguna Seca. I got chills thinking about the gods that had ridden that course on my track day; but it was also the beginning of the end, the moment I confirmed to myself I enjoy the technical aspects of riding infinitely more than the speed. There is nothing like a triple, and I imagine that whenever I've gotten the hang of dirt riding and have the time and money for both off roading and street, I will consider purchasing a Street Triple.
 
125lb suspension!!!? holy shit
 
Haha, yes well I think it is only fair to let any potential buyer know they will likely have to adjust it, just like I did after buying from a guy who was over 6 feet tall. That and switching out the stock tires for Angels made the difference between feeling very uncertain about being ready for an upgrade to making the bike an extension of me.
 
I'm in Seaside. Are you going to be around this weekend? I'd like to check it out. Most likely Sunday, Saturday will be tough fro me to get out there.
 
Alas, no I did not perform the recall. By the time I found out about it, I lived nowhere near a Triumph dealer. I did call one and have them order the part, but the timing was wrong and it had gone before I could bring her in. So far, no issues.

That's understandable. I had my stator and R/R replaced with Rick's units....BEFORE the recall was issued. :rolleyes
 
As an aside: aren't recall notices serviced no matter who the current owner is? (That's what they told me about my 650R's oddball recall notice a few years ago.)

Definitely, I had the part in and confirmed it would be charged back to Triumph with no cost to me ... then I moved and the guy I had arranged it with was killed in a moto accident and I never did get around to it again.

Just called them the dealer in Monterey and they also stated same. It is based on the VIN and whether or not the recall on that vehicle has been done. Priced the 18K service while I was at it - $350.

Double check that before you sell it. I've seen more than one 675 owner get screwed by a dealer saying the recall was done when it was not.

Not trying to derail, but screwed how? I thought a recall was a recall, whomever had the vehicle. Do you mean that dealers say they performed a service that was not actually performed?

FWIW, I checked with three dealers/shops that I trust, and they all agreed that no one in their right mind would "fake" a recall service.

More importantly, any registered owner of a recalled moto is eligible to have that moto's recall issues addressed, whether they are the original, second, third, et cetera, owner. It all comes down to the VIN having been checked off as having been repaired.
