I got I think $5600 or $5700 for my 2011 early this year out of riding season. You should be able to swing $6k or a little more I would say....

Dealer trying to low ball you. He didn't look at it bc he knows at $4500 he'll make a butt load off of reselling. Him be a Leech.

He has to re-sell it so he is only going to give you a "trade in" price. Which is crap.

Post up a for sale ad here. Put it on craigslist. Be positive and it will sell. ;)

I'm also trying to sell my bike in the Southern California area. I have some similar mods as well. My bike has 9,850 miles, Pazzo Racing shorty levers, Rizoma mirrors, Rizoma handlebars, Two Bros. Black Series carbon fiber exhaust, Evotech TailTidy, and some lower profile aftermarket turn signals. I think a fair private-party price would be anywhere from $6,000-$6,500.

I can tell you that with the latest incentives you can get a brand new 2013 for around $6500 at a dealership if you know how to deal. Helps understand the low trade in offer. I pulled out $5300 for a trade as Yamaha is offering trade incentives right now too.

Remember, anything you get for a trade on a different bike (at a dealer) you don't pay sales tax on. It helps a little to think about the additional savings too.

I got (to me), $5591.50 for my 2011, and cycletrader and craigslist got me nothing but BOMBARDED with junk email, scam phone calls and endless bullshit text messages.
