29 Palms California | i just checked ebay, and a Vision Premium is going for 21k. Then again, it's probably been dropped! LOL
What recession? I haven't talked to, or heard of anybody, yet effected by said recession. Media driven hype! What does George have to do with the economy? The privately owned federal reserve bank and Wall St. works that deal over us tax payers. What in the world did you start me going for? I just ranted 2 paragraphs before looking back, and having to delete everything. I have political views, the same as every gun owning, God fearing, heterosexual male and female in the USA. Lord knows i would love to bitch slap you for bringing the Presidents name into a simple offer to sell my Vision Premium due to my physical disabilities. Then again, I'm all Effing PC now, so I'll refrain from popping off and being disgruntled and crap. Damn it. |

Brighton, TN | BuckN8Kd, you have broken me out of my 999 post era to post on this one. I give you honors of being 1000. Without you this would not have been possible. I never thought I would have made it to this high of a post count, but due to your diligence and testicular fortitude, I have done it. There are only two other people that I know of, who have surpassed you in posting, cjnoho and Varyder.
You being the twisted and unruly Marine Corp Devil Dog, I thought this to be a shamtravshamockery, but then I kept going to see if this would play out in your favor. With a long Muuaahhahah at the end. I have yet to see this and you have stuck with the party line. For a fella who was gettin loose and jiggy wit it. This is odd to say the least. I'm stuck for a moment on thoughts, cause I surely surmised at some point, the great minds of BuckN8kd, Soaring Eagle CJnoHo, SandinthecrevicesJim, and LongDistanceVaRyder, Songfan, and me, GreatandMightyChickenLittle, would meet over campfire and beverages of sorts (and other things). Now only to learn that you are discontinuing your hunt with big knife. Maybe you hang onto beer, hardhat, and small hammer!!
I too have felt the crunch of back, can't hardly sit in an office chair. But surprisingly can sit on a bike and have no issues, thought about the Utopia, just haven't dropped the cash. Don't know if it would help. I don't know what it would take for me to give this or any bike up. I'm pretty well attached. I'm like some of the other folks, here. It would take a bit of hardship to uproot me. I figure if I can ride in cage, I'd have to see about a trike and put a car seat on it. Something, anything, grab and squeeze, twist and pull, something1!!!
Dang it. I too have felt the crunch of falling gas prices and apparent dysmal outlook on the economy. I can't even tell you the last time I road. My bike has been parked and the odometer stopped at 16k. I now pickup kids from daycare and afterschool camp so am unable to ride anymore until this time has passed. I made it to right about the one year mark. So, yeah, I got me a paperweight, dust collector, place to rest my butt while I'm in the shop. So, I too, have stopped rolling, it starts to wear on ya. I feel the pain. I just can't stand to part with it. My time will come again, not sure when, but it will. It took me 15 years to get back and I ain't leaving without a fight or at least a cockfight.
I too, will at least give you $10,500, seeing as how you need to offload it.

Rockford, IL | BUCKEYE - 2008-12-30 10:52 PM i just checked ebay, and a Vision Premium is going for 21k. .... True, there is a Vision for $21k on Ebay right now. However $21k isn't what its "going for" though. It is what is being "asked for", which is completely different than "going for". With Ebay the "going for" can be found...as mentioned...in the completed Ebay listings that are green. Guess you could say that in some cases "asked for" is called the "hope/dream/fantasy/bail my ass out" price. And "going for" is the "reality/holy crap I'm in trouble" price. Remember, you did ask...twice...if the $17k is a good price or not. Well for your area in CA it might be a good price. Heck, possibility it might even be a bit low...who knows. But there is a possibilty it might be to high. All I'm doing is answering your qestion of price. Lord knows we ALL want you to get a good decent price for it ! And it would kinda suck for all of us if you don't. |

29 Palms California | grasshopper, you must snatch the pebble from my hand. Wait for it.....nope.
It was all good until someone said, it's the presidents fault. Even if it was this new guy, Obomanation, he has little to do with the pace of the economy. Unless you consider allowing the private federal reserve to give us another "free check" out of thin air, then charging us interest on money that they created with a key stroke, and cost little to nothing for them. Then again, there is plenty to go around, here's some cash. Buy the way, your kids, not you will get to pay the debt, why worry!
I appreciate the advice on selling price. It has nothing to do with pollitics....Unless your from the south east, then you have to worry about the ticks. |

Brighton, Colorado | BUCKEYE! Damn sad to hear you're not gonna ride any more. I'm almost 60 and I thank God every day that I can still hop on the "crimson thunder." Hang on to those memories. I traded in my '08 black cherry premium tour (had 3500 miles) for the '09. I was in the dealer today and he has my old one listed at $18,920. The only extra on it was the luggage rack. Seems like $17K is a good price.
