Woody Posted March 6, 2021 Share #1 Posted March 6, 2021 Father-in-law getting ready to put his 2009 up for sale. it is in great shape maybe around 20K miles, but he is not sure what to ask for it. he moved to a trike and don't want to keep both. I suggested around 6,000 but not sure if that's high or low. What do the experts here think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDawson Posted March 6, 2021 Share #2 Posted March 6, 2021 I’m sure it’ll depend a lot on location but around my neck of the woods $4000-5000 is what they bring. The Ventures never caught on here for some reason, Wings and HD hogged the touring market. I got my 07 three years ago for $4k with 30k on the clock.

BlueSky Posted April 13, 2021 Share #5 Posted April 13, 2021 Beautiful bike! Ventures are great bikes but for whatever reason they don't bring what they are worth it seems to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasquatch Posted June 11, 2021 Share #7 Posted June 11, 2021 I paid 9 CND for my 09 three years ago with same miles. About 7 grand US. Ask 6 you can always come down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share #10 Posted February 13, 2022 Bluesky I had not thought about that, recon he could get more for it nah he don't need two bikes just needs to sale this one.

Where I'm at, that definitely applies to import bikes from 70's/80's, but less so for newer stuff. Not sure if that's us older dude's reclaiming our youth or the younger generation wanting to be retro cool, but the market for older bikes is red hot right now.

Woody Posted January 16 Author Share #23 Posted January 16 Okay the FIL has decided to put the 09 back up for sale this time he said 5000. If anyone is interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etcswjoe Posted January 20 Share #24 Posted January 20 (edited) Blue Book is $7600 Retail, $5500 Trade in, I would offer $3500, but I am cheap, and Bobbi would probably frown on another bike in the Garage, but who could turn down a $3500 Venture.
