Used dirtbike prices... Am I the crazy one?
So after a recent trip down the AZ to hunt some critters and see some family, I got hooked on my brother-in-law's Honda XR 100R. I've been riding for nearly 30 years and have been on my share of bigger, adult sized/powered bikes, but for a small displacement, small framed bike, I couldn't keep the smile off my face while ripping it around the desert.
I haven't bought a dirt bike in probably over 15 years, and that one was delivered in a cardboard box. My current bike is an old '68 trailbike that I just got finished restoring (it was the bike I learned to ride on), the bike before that was a sportbike bought from the dealer, and the one before that was a Harley. So I've been out of the loop on used dirtbike values for a long time. With that said, the used XR 100R market just seems crazy to me.
For a bike that KBB lists as being worth about $600 from a dealer and in excellent shape, craigslisters are asking $1200!!! Back in AZ, I could expect to pay $400-$500 if I looked around.
So am I the crazy one? Is there a premium on used dirtbikes here in CO or are people just out of their mind?
