Looks ok, but I really don't think it's worth what he's asking for it. Even with the extra stuff he says he has for it.

Yeah, that's a bit of wishful thinking.

Usually you don't see so many bikes for sale in the middle of the summer riding season. Seems like a lot of people are selling bikes now. And predominantly big cruisers like H-Ds and Japanese cruisers.

People have been known to come down on price.....

the original retail value of an '07 Gear-Up is $10,995. Now granted the used vehicle market has gone a bit wonky recently, but to say that a used 15 years old rig is worth the original retail value is a hard sell since Urals are not collectible rigs, and farkles don't usually add value to the bike as those are personal touches and not everyone wants them, unlike a tangible asset like a trailer which does add value.

And to be 15 years old with only 6000 Km's is a small red-flag. These rigs don't like to sit around, they need to be ridden. less than 500Km/year is not ideal.

Another red-flag is the seller only mentions a bill of sale and "paperwork", NOT a title. if they are the original owner, as implied, why no title?

The rig does look good, but it is WAYYY overpriced and has a couple of things that need clarification, but in the end it's also worth whatever somebody is willing to pay for it.

I'm thinking he was looking at the original book value of the 2007. NADA is showing the current average retail at $3,360. doing a search on searchtempest.com around the country, 10k seems to be the asking price in that date range. only found 2 others of similar years.
