[QUOTE="Kelvininin, post: 1282287, member: 89034"] So I looked at a 2006 blue today, it was nice, didn't make an offer. The owner said he was having hard time with the wobble of death but finally found a tire combo that worked... That kind of scared me away from that bike. I have not heard of any other FJRs that had the wobble of death. I went down to a dealer that had a 2010 with 7500 miles. They wanted $8500 for the bike, it had some scuff marks on the left side where it had been knocked over but my S10 have scuff marks on the right side where I knocked it over. They offered me $7200 on the Super T for trade. I am not confident I could get $7200 selling the S10 on craigs list. The out the door difference was going to be $1500. I haven't pulled the trigger but it's the best offer I have found so far. Still working on spousal approval. The 2010 had bar risers, highway pegs, and a Givi top case. On a dealer trade I would only have to pay the difference in taxes from one bike to the other. The super T doesn't hold its value all that well unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
