BMW R1200 C Value?

#1 Unread post by rbgerrish »

Hello,

I've got a truck for sale, and recently a guy offered to trade his 2003 BMW R1200 C motorcycle for it. I know nothing about bikes, so I was hoping someone here could tell me how much I could sell it for!

-2003 R1200 C, 12,181 Miles, no problems, never dropped, never driven in the rain.

Many thanks for your help!

EBay motors currently has an '03 BMW R1200C listed for $10,400US. How much are you asking for your truck?

You can try,

Kelly Blue Book,

Doing a quik check on nada it's value retail is $9875.00 and kelly's is at $9380.00. Take about $2000 off those prices for wholesale/trade in value.

Thanks for the input thusfar! I'm asking $8000 for my truck. Apparently the owner of the BMW was asking $10k for the bike, and had some interest but nothing too serious.

Maybe I should tell him to sell the bike on his own and give me cash for my truck- save me some hassle?

Take it for sure. I think you can sell it for more than $8k if it comes to that.
