Well, my contract is up in a month and so I've got to sell off my baby. I've taken impeccable care of this bike since I got it last August and so did the previous owner. She has a beautiful custom paint job with saddle bags, floor boards and a sissy bar. Unfortunately, she was dropped once (see the motorcycle thread for what happened) which resulted in a 5 cm scratch/dent but I've since covered it up with a sticker so it's hardly noticeable and it should be easily painted/fixed if you have the time/shop nearby. I was unable to find one locally, here in Wonju.






- Regular, every 500 km, oil changes with oil filter change at 1500 km
- New battery (March 2007)
- Saddlebags
- Sissy bar
- Floorboards

You'll be buying a bike that you know has been taken care of, is a head turner, and is in perfect mechanical condition.
Looking to get 1,000,000W obo.

PM for details.

Nice flames on the bike. I remember seeing a similar colour scheme on the Honda cruisers.

Great deal!

I'm also in WOnju. Can you tell me

1. How much is insurance?
2. Do I need a motorcycle license.
3. How much are the tags?
4. Do you have all the papers required to transfer ownership?

Cheers,

To bad about the ding in the tank... good luck with the sale.

If you have any trouble selling it and are willing to come down on the price than let me know...

I'm pretty sure I remember this same bike being sold around a year ago for close to that price. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but if you bought it a year ago has it not depreciated since then? (especially being an older Korean bike in the first place)

Supply and demand determines market price. I've had 3 offers for what I'm asking already, so I guess the price is about right. Note also that the price was "close" to last year's price. At only about $1000 USD, the price isn't going to fluctuate too much on a gorgeous bike like this unless there is mechanical trouble, of which there is none. Now, I would agree that a bike should depreciate, but only if the bike were on the higher-end, at about $3-$4K+. At the low end, bikes like this don't depreciate much, mainly because of the demand for a good looking, well-mantained beginner bike. In the end, you get what you pay for and if someone wants to go pay 500K Won on a bike, it's their choice, but they should expect some problems along the way. Here, you're getting a gorgeous bike, immaculately taken care of and from a person you can trust. I'm not looking to rip anyone off, I'm just trying to sell my bike for what it's worth.

Fair enough. That must have been an expensive paint job for what the asking price is for a used 125cc Koran bike. Cool Good luck, regardless!

By the time they get old, resale value is about that give or take a Ben Franklin. It's a nice bike, I think...what year is it?
