Hi All,

I have not been on here in some time, I had some more heath issues and I am no longer able to ride. It greatly saddens me that at the young age of 58 I can no longer do something I have loved my entire life.

Due to this I must sell my CTX 1300 Deluxe and I am looking for any advise on the selling process. First off let me tell you as bit about the bike, it has just over 3,000K miles on it and has recently had full service with oil change and all that. It also has tires that are just over a year old and have vey few miles and a new battery. The bike has the center stand, shift indicator, upgraded wind screen, saddle bag inserts and a bunch more little addons. It is one of the nicest I have seen and I hate that I can't ride it any longer.

For those of you have have been thought selling process is there any advise you can give me? Where to list it, how much it may be worth, just anything that ,may help.
I apricate any help given.

Thank you,
James

list it on this site, as fans are always looking. I sold 2 on marketplace, but this last one I TRIED to sell turned into a headache.
I wound up taking more of a hit than I hoped and sold it to a dealership.
This is sad to hear. Indeed you are young, & I heartily recommend & hope you find another passion to fill you time.
I would also recommend listing your ride on this forum.
if you have it priced fairly, people who are knowledgeable about the motorcycle will have a greater interest & possibly know other that are interested.

Sorry to hear of your health problems. Comin' for all of us....

I have used www.cycletrader.com in the past. Several on there now. Would at least give you another source of pricing.

I've sold one on CycleTrader.com and I've listed another in the Classifieds/Motorcycles for Sale sub forum here and on other forums. Be sure to take pictures and post along with the listing.

Usually you won't get a great price for one sold in the fall. Spring or summer is the best time to sell. Just don't expect a very high sale price in the fall.
Thank you for all the replies. I will list it here and on Cycle trader. I hope to get it listed within the next couple of weeks. I looked on Cycle trader and the prices are pretty high now, I wonder what they are actually selling for.

Thank you,
James
James, I too am sorry to hear of your situation. You and I are the same age, so it's disheartening to hear.

FYI, I found my CTX on Craigslist, motorcycle section. Good luck to you.
