GLWS, gorgeous bike.  My 2004 has garnered zero interest as well.  I think the motorcycle sales market has COVID....

I really like the black on this bike.

In my not so humble opinion.....  There are bikes that are priced to sell, and do so.  And those that are not, and do not.

Skooter has a point.  KBB is calling for $11,560 for a 2017 ES in good condition and typical mileage".  “Mileage/condition and additional equipment may have a substantial impact on the value shown. Additional options added are assumed to be in good condition and in working order”.  $12,420 for a 2018.  $860 of difference between these two years.  This bike has lower mileage than “typical” and in addition has OEM frame sliders and a complete 3M Scotchgard wrap kit from day 1.  I think $100 for $300 OEM frame sliders and additional $140 to account for the “lower than typical” mileage is a fair price.  $11,800 sounds fair price.

While KBB does provide a point of reference, it often does not reflect reality.  The best gauge of pricing for a bike is what they are selling for.  Even this varies tremendously by region - some places they sell pretty quickly for a decent price and other places it is hard to practically give them away.  Look at prices for used 2016+ as well as brand new 2020 on Cycletrader for a dose of reality.  Minor "farkles" add nothing to the price and major stuff (Russell seat, full crash bars, aftermarket exhaust, Smuggler, fancy auxiliary lights etc may get 25% of their value on a sale (best to remove and sell separately)).

Unfortunately, bikes sell for what people are willing to pay, not necessarily what they are worth.  Good for the buyer but not for the seller!
