How much time should I give myself....??

[Madness]

I have put a deposit on a bike which is going to be in Oz in Sept/Oct. How much time should I give myself to sell my little GPX?

I was going to put it on the market tomorrow, July 1, but would like some sort of guidance on it. I NEED the money from this bike for the new one, I would hate to get to Sept and not be able to sell it.

Can anyone offer me any suggestions/info??? Or is it just luck of the draw?? put it on tomorrow sell it thursday or put it on tomorrow and sell it in 3 months?

Cheers

put it up early to mid august... see if u can get a more specific date from the dealer...

of course this all depends how much u want for the GPX... if u only asking 3500 or something then u will probably sell it in a week or two... if u asking more towards 5k then it may take longer...

Was putting 4500 on it. It's in absolutely perfect nick and been looked after like a child. OK I think I might wait another month before putting it on sale I think.

thanks for that.

Put it on now for a high price and hold your ground, or if you get it, run and don't look back.... When you start to get desperate drop the price........ Bikes will sell better in warmer months and people will be getting their tax $$$$$ back by then as well......... I guess there is no right or wrong time to sell.

I think this would be the best idea, put a higher price on it now, if it sells, you may not have a bike for 3 months but you get extra money to put an exhaust on your new bike! drop the price a little after after 1 month to what you would have sol it for. Cant wait to see the new bike Madness

So 5 grand ya think?? And can you just edit prices on those bikesales/bikepoint places???

And neither can I wait to see it. I am trying not to think about it too much as it's sort of sureal so far.

Yep, editing is fine, if you do it online you can log in and change most parts of the advert.

Alrighty, that sounds like a good idea. Mind you, I think it's worth 5 grand myself. It's in bloody good nick, garaged and a cover on it, not thrashed, maintained. I'd buy it. hahaha

what's the bike..........yer buying??

Yes, I concur. Sell it at a high price at 1st and then drop it as it gets closer to the date. That's what I'd do.
You can't tease us and not tell us what bike you have ordered. Share your excitement with us!
I erred the other day. When I picked up my tail tidy I sat on a ZX10R just to see what it felt like. I'm trying to pretend I don't like it so I don't want one!

I put a deposit on a Harley Iron 883, which will get tongues wagging, as most on here don't like the Harley. Too bad so sad!!! hehehe It wont be in Oz until sept/oct, so have a bit of time to sell, but must sell by the time the new one comes as i need that cash.

I would say hold on to your kwaka You can use it to get around on once you own the hardley

[smithy5]

IMO, That is beyond going to the other side..... ............. you have fallen off the other side ....

[Madness]

Well it isn't up to you to like it. I do, and that's all that matters. Each to their own.

Geez, have I just stumbled across netrider instead of the kwaka forum???
