I just sold a CR450F about 3 months ago. I priced it well & it was in fine shape... well maintained. Nice guy shows up to look at it one day. He rides it, looks it over, & pays me full asking price. I thanked him for not trying to talk me down. As a thanks I gave him a 150.00 motocross stand with it because of this. There are good buyers out there stilll...
1. The bike was priced to sell
2. It was clean, maintained, ready to go... taken care of w/ clean title.
3. He was ready willing & able w/ cash.
4. There was no objections to the sale based on the above.
if they are flakey, try to negotiate on the phone w/o seeing it, or are unreasonable, they are usually not worth the time. One thing I know, there is always another buyer who is decent behind the weird ones....
