Hey guys, well it broke my heart, but I sold the 300 this week, I didn't even plan to, I just posted it for $3800 and said price firm and in a few days got tons of replies. It had a full yosh and area p tuner, but did have a drop on it and I repainted the fairings matte black. The guy who bought it got it for his wife and in the end I think I got a fair deal and he was hAppy. It only had 4000 miles plus my first 300 that gives me just under ten thousand miles of 300 memories I will never forget.
So to the point, I've been working like crazy the last year and after selling the bike, managed to save about fifteen grand up. I'm a little scared to spend all that cash but the 636 is and always has been my dream bike. I believe if I buy it I will ride it until it or I or both die. So my question is I have 3 options. Dealer number one has a 2016 krt model with abs for 13,300 otd. I'm thinking if I offer thirteen in cash I can get it. Now dealer number 2 has a 2015 for 11800 out the door but no abs and I'm pretty set on green color and absolutely, so that's probably out. Now here's the big question.... Dealer one also has a brand new 2013 green with abs that's been sitting in their warehouse for 4 years, assembled but never ridden and the only reason I heard is bc I specifically asked about leftovers. It kind of got lost in their inventory so to speak. They couldn't give me a otd price as the manager wasn't there but assured me they're make me a deal I can't refuse.
Now I wanted to ask you guys, were there any big changes made on the bike from 2013 until now? I don't believe so but I'm not sure. Also is there any danger that having the bike sit for so long poses? Obviously there's no gas or oil in it, and lastly, what would you offer? I'm thinking if I can get ten grand out the door ill do it. More or less? Msrp is 12699 but it's 4 years old. Thanks for any and all help guys.
