As for trade, I was going to trade it in on a dirtbike. I had bike fever because my buddy bought an 09 Yamaha 450. He offered me this for my bike plus 700 bucks. Leftover 09 for basically $7400. That's $2000 under msrp.http://www.motosmed.com/graficos/img...%20KLX450R.jpg


Don't get me wrong. I know this thing will not appreciate in value. And I know it'll likely take somebody who really wants what I'm offering to pay near what I'm asking. I'm just hoping it happens before I'm eager to sell...

Remember, he is in Canada.

MSRP up there is over $9k.

Looking at the numbers, it sounds like a reasonable deal.

I still wouldn't do it.

Dirtbikes are great fun but they can be had so cheap after a year or two that I can't see buying new unless I had money oozing from my pores.

I plan on buying a used one next this fall or next summer. I have this sitting in my basement, which makes me crazy that it's not mine every time I walk down there..

He lives in an apartment and has no storage. So, she's going to live in my basement till spring.
