Too late to sell my bike?

Price is reasonable but it's a niche bike and not many are looking for it. Is it close to stock with original paint?
 
Seems like a pretty good price to me what condition is it in, you have a rare collector bike. The right buyer is needed to sell it.
 
The Nuak bikes are JDM grey market bikes and cost a premium because they were never available in North America. The FZR400 was sold in Canada when new so not as rare but still not many around. Many have been converted to track bikes.

Compared to those bikes, this bike is a bargain.
 
Thanks for the input, it's original paint for the most part, some touch ups here and there.

Trying to sell it for a supermoto- got a quote on a yama WR426. The insurance on that yearly is what I pay for the FZR in a month- it'd save me money in the long run.

Has anyone ever posted a for sale sign on their bike- thought it'd be a great way to get the word out there while on the road.

Looks like your ad was hacked and someone changed the price. Unless you really want $400 then consider it sold and PM me your contact info and I'll be by later with a truck.
 
Niche market....the age scares a lot of people away + the km's....
 
My guess is that most people looking for these are in search of "original" looking bikes. This one does not have the original fairing graphics which may give some purchasers some hesitation when they consider buying this bike. FZ 400?

That was my first impression when I saw the bike.

Perhaps this is the point of this thread?

Alright, if the bike is in working order I have 600 bucks.
 
Here's a little story for ya. I posted my bike for sale on kijiji with all the info and pics of the bike in my garage....little to no bites and the ad expired.

Gave the bike a spit polish, took it outside and did some nice shots on grass during a gorgeous day...reposted the ad with minor changes to the description...BOOM! Sold in 24hrs.

I put effort into my ad and the right person viewed it...it takes time.

No offense, but placing a old bike in a parking lot with oil stains around is poor advertising at best.
Take the sucker out and do some proper shots and you'll see a difference for sure. Your pictures do not inspire me to want this bike.

I used the old pics I had from my trips, I'll take the advice washing it tomorrow. Mind if I ask what bike you sold? Price?
