Guys an idea what a 2018 GSA TE with Alarm is worth with only 787 miles on the clock in red?

Sadly she has to go, so before I list her, I just wanted to get a view of approx. value. Some farkles added - some bought but not added yet. My guess is ~£14k... any thots?

Just can't justify keeping a bike that I never get around to using - and rather someone else take over and actually ride her.

I am thinking Autotrader - any other avenue ?

Cheers

No reason to sell, a lot of us have bikes in the garage just doing the same.................it's what men do:D
 
Best start you can make is to spend £12 and subscribe to this site. You will then be able to see just how good the for sale section is and your chances of selling on here with a lot less hassle than Autotrader or Ebay are pretty good. A bit more detail about the bike and some pictures will get some more interest and informed opinion. Or not!
 
Ebay is not of much help here. Only 2 bikes sold and the closest to your as new description sold for £13.5k. It did have 18k miles on the clock in showroom condition. Autotrader lists 38 GSAs from £12k with over 20k miles on the clock to £14k for about 3k miles on the clock.
 
If the bike is finance free and you dont “need” the cash then i would keep it.

1. A biker always wants/ needs a bike to call his own.
2. You can pick up riding again at any time that suits you.
3. No bike in the garage and things will gradually slide to a state that you will never ride again - shame.
4. Have you thought about joining a local club to ride more ?

I dont ride that often and it must cost me a lot of £ per mile but i wouldnt be without one just yet.
Just my thoughts....
Good luck in whatever you choose to do.
 
I would pitch it at the very top end, its a new bike, 16k on ebay or best offer, see how it goes

No it isn’t it’s a 2 & 1/2 year old bike. It’s low mileage should make it stand out and be more desirable than a similar bike age bike with say 18,000 miles on it. But be realistic and don’t expect too great a premium from the mileage, particularly as lately many, many bikes will have fewer than the usual average mileage.

Picked up a 2018 GSA TB three months ago, with 1000 miles. No alarm but full set of panniers/top box, Akrapovic exhaust and nav 6. £14500 delivered to my garage. GLWS.
 
I’m not riding much because instead of riding 50 miles to work round trip 6 days a week my employer asked me to take the van home with me. It’s a no brainier. I also have a car. The bike sits in the garage because I cannot see myself without one. Also I’d be loath to loose my ncb. My bikes usually have high mileage for a bike but this doesn’t. Some day my boss will tell me to leave the van at work. Till then I’ll rest my bike except for a trip or 2. If the pandemic ever allows. JJH

Can’t PM you as you are not a fully paid up member, so that must make you a sooty, I was on 3 then in structures bay.

Carry on with the sales advice citizens, nothing to see here, just a couple of old codgers pulling up a sandbag and telling war stories

I'm not sure many of us can happily have 15k bikes sitting doing nothing other than depreciating.

But some of us can afford to keep buying "wrong" bikes then selling them 3 months later at a substantial loss. :blast
 
Im sure some on here have a lot more than 14k invested in vehicles that we are not using, at least until next week hopefully, surely nobody rides adventure bikes between September to May anyway:eek:

Thanks guys ... I've put it on Autotrader at £13995. All your points are valid - particularly the one about keeping it!

I'll see how I get on...
