2008 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic – It’s a few years old, but I’ve barely ridden it. Only 2000 miles on it so far. It’s never been dropped, and I’ve kept it pretty well maintained even when not riding it. It runs just as well as if it were new. Includes a saddlebag rack, but the saddlebags I did have weren’t well-suited to the bike and got wrecked. Kelley Blue Book puts it at $4800 for one in excellent condition. I’m trying to sell it for $4400 negotiable on other sites, but I’ll sell it for a flat $4000 to a Doper.

Giving this a single bump. The motorcycle is still up for sale, and I’ll go down to $3500. If you’re wondering why it’s _still_ not sold yet, it’s not a case of people thinking it’s a crap bike and deciding not to buy it after they look at it. I’ve had plenty of people call in for it, but not a single one has come out to even look at it yet. There’s not a thing wrong with it. ---

Nice bike. If I lived anywhere near Phoenix I’d seriously consider it, but alas you’re on the wrong side of the country. ---

I’ve got an earlier year of the same model - it’ll be a great mid-size bike for somebody. Good luck selling it! ---

Sure enough, the first person who came out to see the bike bought it on the spot. Not that there was much interest here, but the bike is sold. ---
