2006 Thruxton

[simpson]

What is the book value on this one?

Also, are there any red flags for me to look out for on that particular model?

Thanks.

Poor Simpson. No one replied. Allow me: I really do not know. However, reasonable mileage and an overall look of being maintained is a good sign. Also, the motorcycles are bought by those with a degree of passion for the brand, so it is unlikely you'll find a bad one.
Look at prices in various listings. These bikes seem all to be within the 5 to 7 thousand range.

KBB.com's values ..

Trade in Value: $4200
Retail Value: $6100

NADA Values ...

Low retail: $4,120
High retail: $5,420

If they've added aftermarket parts - add up the total cost of the parts new, then divide in half. Add that number to the above figures. That's about as close as you'll get with values.

Just an example, there's a 2006 Thruxton listed on Craigslist in Austin, TX right now. 7K miles, bar end mirrors, extra seat ... with an asking price of $4800.00

But don't tell your teacher that Bonafide did your homework for you.

Thanks for the responses...even the homework rebuke.

I owe you all at least a beer.
