Bob Myers Posted October 24, 2014 Share #1 Posted October 24, 2014 Found a sweet Goldwing locally for sale, looks like I may have a new commuter vehicle! Why are motorcycles selling so cheap now? Are that many people buying new bikes and selling off the older ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madcow Posted October 24, 2014 Share #3 Posted October 24, 2014 Prior to the real estate bust people were doing the refi dance and many pulled out enough to buy a bike. LOTS of early to mid 2000's bikes got sold. Now that the economy has recovered people are beginning to sell to buy another or simply are getting rid of something they don't use. I picked up an 05 RSV with 42k for $3000. Granted it needs work but.. still an 05.... ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huggy Posted October 24, 2014 Share #4 Posted October 24, 2014 I don't know about down there, but here in Canada when the tempature goes down so does the prices for bike. Best time of year to get good deals on bikes is when it starts to SNOW!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only takes 45 minutes to get to work, and 2 to 4 hours to get home, unless it is raining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
