friesman Posted August 15, 2011 Share #3 Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) probably the biggest thing is to take it for a good test ride, to check for clutch basket whine. Its not common to have it bad enough to affect the ride, but it has been known to really spoil someones ride on the odd bike. Also, get under the bike and check for oil on the rear shock, if its not perfectly free of oil, its probably going to need a new shock at about a 700 buck hit to your wallet. BTW there are 2 G2 ventures in the Classifieds section here with less miles and lower price than what youre looking at. BUT a good deal is whatever you figure it to be. If its the right bike for you, youll be willing to pay more for it...http://www.venturerider.org/classifieds/showcat.php?cat=4 Brian Edited August 15, 2011 by friesman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midrsv Posted August 15, 2011 Share #4 Posted August 15, 2011 That seems a bit high to me. My brother is close to selling his '06 Midnight RSV with less than 10,000 miles. He will likely sell it for around $9,000. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myminpins Posted August 15, 2011 Share #5 Posted August 15, 2011 It really depends on where you live, what you're looking for and how comfortable you are with the seller. RSVs sell for at LEAST $10,000 around here, most around $12,000 to $13,000. We just bought our '06 RSV for $11,000. As soon as you hit Quebec or further west, the prices drop to $9,000. Sigh. The bike we bought was well cared for, always stored inside and it was so pretty!! LOL The whine is definitely something to look for. It was horrid on one bike we took out for a test ride. So glad we didn't buy it. So if it's not an impulse buy and you're confident this bike was very well cared for and it won't put you in bankruptcy to buy it, I'd say sleep on it a day or two and see how you feel. If you still feel good about it, then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 16, 2011 Share #7 Posted August 16, 2011 How accessorized is it? If the owner has added a lot of goodies that may figure into the price. Got a pic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
