Alex - Apologies for being in the wrong forum. I figured people wouldn't see it in the Wanted section :D

Need an 08 Ninja 250 with low miles and no damage. Will pay $3200 cash. Need right away. Located in Central Cali but will travel to NoCAl or SoCal for the right bike. Lemme know :)

Here is one in so cal

He might be able to work a deal..

Thanks - I did talk to him but we're too far apart on price.

ah thats to bad...

(try posting on Southbayriders.com or bayarearidersforum.com (aka barf) they might have something there too.. They are no-central cali)

Good idea, but most Cali sellers can't set down their bong long enough to lower their price down from $5500, so I probably need to get something from Oregon or Nevada. LOL

:( I will not take offense to that...

And as far as I know... Though Barf is rather immature SBR is far from it. And it never hurts to ask. I am not saying ask dealerships but people who have their bikes for sale because they got a bigger one or the wife/husband says no...

You never know... They may need the drug money... :doh:

No offense intended... you're not selling your $3495 bike for $5500 during the worst economic downturn in the past 70 years, right?

No.. I think Tyke is worth way more than that! Hah! (believes this but is not trying to sell either)

I think part of it is that, as Alex said in another post, those bikes are OTD for $5K as it is. Of course those are the new ones. So honestly I couldn't say what people are thinking. If I had to hazard a guess though... In this down turned economy they are trying to make up for a loss in some other area. It's either sell the bike or loose the house... That kind of thing.. Perhaps anyway.

Good luck hunting!

Dealers around here will wait for somebody to pay it! :confused:

i have mine listed for 3800 with stock parts installed... thinks it a very fair price with 675 miles on it and always garage kept......

Saw this on Craig's list, an '08 for $4,100: http://palmsprings.craigslist.org/mcy/1034207152.html

Thanks all. I picked up a new 09 from Advanced Kawasaki. Killer deal!
