Good or bad price???

Utah Motorcyclist · 09-10-2009

I'm looking at buying a 2006 Nomad with 12K miles. It is fully loaded with

Kawi lightbar
highway pegs
Kury grips w/ throttle boss
Chrome fender tips
kawi bag rails
luggage rack
extra LED light on back
back tire with 2K miles
kawi tank bib
Iron horse shield bag
Vance & Hines pipes
PC3
KN filter
extra chrome add ons

The mods have all been done at the dealer and the bike looks to be in awesome condition.

The owner has offered it to me for $7800. What do you guys think? Should I buy it now or wait until winter and loose out on a few months of fall riding???

If the bike was treated like a baby then I think yes just jump on it before it's gone.
Offer $500 less and negotiate to the price but yes buy now.

If you like (and can afford it) it buy now......life is too short to be spend waiting for tomorrow.

doug4958 · 09-10-2009

somewhere in the neighborhood of 3K in added accessories. Buy it.

Bubba68CS · 09-10-2009

Yeah, thats good enough I'd buy it if I were in the market. There was one available in KC back in June that was a bit more than that...I was going to call about it when I got back, but it was gone by then...I was only gone a little over a week!

So...umm...ahh...Jared. Where's the bike? Just wondering..............

Utah Motorcyclist · 09-11-2009

Patrick, I sold it......

I put a good amount of miles on it going to florida, up the east coast, and down the west coast. I put a total of 12K miles on it in four months and decided that I would put it up on craigslist for a little more than I payed just to see if I got any hits.

Well it sold. and I'm looking for a replacement. This will be bike #4 in 4 years.

Sounding my own horn here...why buy a Nomad when you can have my 2006 V2K for roughly the same amount? Its got everything you could want on it.....check the ads section.

Dudester · 09-11-2009

I'm confused, are you looking to buy it or sell it ? Your signature says you own a 2006 Nad.

I have not found an 05 or new v2k that is accessorized similar to a nomad and with under 15K miles for $7.5K

If you have one in mind, I wouldn't mind hearing about it.

I've sold my 05 and I'm planning on purchasing a newer, less miles, more accessorized one.

Thanks for clarifying. In that case, I think an offer of 73, to $7500.00 for the an 06 Nad would be a great buy

Just as long as they can prove it was properly maintained. Good luck on whatever you decide to do, and please post pictures of whatever you end up buying.
