When to sell?

Post by Jug »

... or should I say the latest I should aim to sell?

I'm thinking of selling a bike to replace with a bigger one next year. I don't mind if I find the right bike at the tail end of this year, over winter, or ideally very early Spring.

So.. are used bike prices lower out of season or is all that a thing of the past?

Nah, have been pondering about upgrading my Vstrom 650 as I ride it 2up more than I do solo now so want something with a bit more poke.
Still not 100% about what bike to get but first things first... make room for it in the garage.

If I did ever sell my drz I have already picked it's replacement.. Aprilla dorsoduro 750.

I bought a crf last year and it just makes me appreciate the drz even more. I think an 1100 multistrada would make a nice touring bike , not to complicated or a zzr 1400.

I couldn't get over the 1100 multistrada's front end but I read they are a great bike. The 1200 is certainly on my list.
I'm not even 100% about selling yet (I hate parting with things) but seriously considering it as I'd like another toy.
