Guys - looking at a first year FJR1300 that just rolled 40,000 miles on it. Here is low down on bike:
New skins front and rear
Handlebar risers (not on it currently)
Saddlebags only - no trunk
Corbin Seat with passenger backrest
Accessory larger windshield (not currently installed)
Bike never wrecked, but was dropped maneuvering steep driveway on left and knocked off the sidestand to the right. RH side has been painted to repair and only minor scratches on left. RH saddlebag made a trip down the interstate without the bike (came loose) as dealership did not secure saddlebag after rear tire change (ouch - how do you prove that).
Here is my question, bike has been well serviced with oil changes, valve services, etc... the cosmetic issues are not deal breakers..... but, being a 2003 with the heat issues how much should that play into purchase price? Know it will make it harder for me to resale down the line. Is $4,000 fair price? No heat mods performed at this time.
Thanks!!!
