I wanted to get an opinion on what my list price and bottom dollar should be when I put my Fz6 up for sale. Unfortunately I have dropped the bike (twice). I am also debating whether or not it would be more cost effective to replace some of the cosmetically unappealing parts before selling.
Damage
* Front Upper fairing has damage to both sides (Dropped Twice)
*Crank Case Cover is scratched
*Both Side Cover Assembly s are scratched
*Front fairing stay is more than likely bent
*Minor Scratches on the right side of the engine(Can be easily fixed with engine paint).
I dropped the bike twice. First time was at maybe 2 miles per hour, front tire caught some mud while coming to a stop. The second time I fell at around 10 mph after being cut off.
PROS
* I have a clean title in hand
* 2008 FZ6
* The bike has just under 11k
* Runs great, and starts up first try
* Both tires have less than 500 miles on them
* I have all stock Parts!
As of now my plan is to replace both side cover assembly fairings, crankcase cover, and the scratches to the right side of the engine. I am estimating this will cost me around $380 in parts and labor (unless it is simple enough to do myself?). However the front fender costs roughly $450 and from what I read the labor/Work it takes in order to replace it is substantial. So I do not believe it would be worth it to replace it.
Here is what I think my bottom line should be.
Sell Bike As Is= $2,800
Sell bike with replaced parts (Crankcase,Side cover assembly fairings,Scratches)= $3,300
Any insight would be appreciated!
