• 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.

'08 KTM Duke 690
Name
Markos
I am moving to Seattle in a couple of weeks, just picked up a Duke 690 and am looking to leave behind my beloved Super Duke. Here are the details:

Super Duke:

Retail: 7,720
Trade In: 5,330
Price: 6,500 final

I am the second owner of this 2008 KTM Super Duke. Original owner put about 9k miles on it. I put another 6K, so right now she is sitting at 15k and counting as I still drive it. This is an amazing Super Duke! A couple aftermarket products: Leo Vince exhaust and mapping, heated grips, throttle tamer, narrow bar end mirrors, upper and lower frame sliders, Corbin seat (for sitting lower if you are short like me), and another after market seat (for 2-up and sitting higher).

Just recently got the major interval maintenance done ($1,200 K) at Scuderia in SF. Gave her a clean bill of health, checked the valves, oil change, new back tire (Pilot Road 3), etc. I have all receipts from all maintenance and parts for this bike.

Previous owner powder coated (@ West Coast Powder Coating) the entire bike black, including exhaust, and then powder coated suspension coil and calipers KTM orange. Bike looks great and is the rarest Super Duke you'll see on the street. I love this bike and it will be hard to see it go….

Yep, firm on the prices. Both are set in between retail and trade in prices (as per Blue Book) and then if you factor in the aftermarket products, they are both set fairly. Thanks!
 
question so is 675 salvage title? or clean
 
Ad says "It does have a salvage title since the insurance company totaled it."
 
Yep, salvage title. Since I decided to keep it, the insurance company gave me the money for what it was worth. I spent a good chunk of that getting it back to the shape it is in (Frame Man, Desmoto, new parts, etc.)
 
For reference, OP - private party prices typically end up around lower blue book (the dealer price typically reflects a bike that is completely 100% ready to go in perfect shape with all new consumables, and the trade in price is roughly around private party pricing, with worn tires, in between services, etc).

A salvage title price typically drops the price to around 50-75% of a clean title bike, due to lower payouts in case of accidents, some insurance companies not insuring at the same levels of coverage, etc.
 
@Z3N: Thanks for the info! From my understanding, KBB gives you the stock retail/trade in prices. So, that is where I set my bikes initially. Then I factored in the aftermarket products (based on how old they were) and that is where I came up w/ the prices. I then took those prices and looked at the market for similar type bikes and that is where I got the listed prices.

As for the Daytona, the salvage title piece is tricky. I put a lot of money back into the bike to get it to look and ride the way that it does. The black mark on its record is definitely hurting, but I am confident that once someone comes and checks it out/rides it, then they will understand what it is really worth.

Definitely appreciate the help, have a good week!
 
To test ride, you must bring cash along...sorry I didn't mention that earlier. Thanks for looking!
 
Daytona sold today. Super Duke still available. I just picked up a 690 Duke, so no longer looking for trades; cash only. Thanks!

You at the airsta? I'm transferring there but don't get out until the first of July, otherwise I'd swing by to consider keeping the Duke in the family. GL :)
