Thinking of selling parts...

[Mac fz6n]

I'm about to upgrade to a FZ1!

I am going to sell the 6 to help pay for the upgrade.

What I want to know is if I should remove some of the aftermarket parts and sell separately?

I have:
Dan Moto Carbon Exhaust (6mths old / 10k klms)
Ohlins spring / Rebuilt rear shock (6 mth / 10k)
PCIII
K&N air filter
Set of stock mirrors (for naked version)
Spare stock exhaust (1x stock, 1x Drilled & 1x de-baffled) Obviously one of these would replace the Dan Moto.

And possible some other misc. parts I can't think of right now.

So do I sell as is, or convert back to stock and sell separately?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Cheers,
Mac.

You will most likely get more $$ by pulling off your mods and selling them separately. I have found that most buyers want to do their own mods to a bike they have purchased.
Good Luck and I can't wait to see your new FZ1! It's a great bike, you're gonna love it!
Oh and I hope you register on our sister site too :Sport:

You would get more money with the motorcycle in her sotck form and sell the extras, usually people won-t pay any of the upgrades.

Now... how does the Dan exhaust fit the motorcycle? Any pics? How much would you be asking for it?

The Dan Moto fits and sounds great...
I'll get some pics this weekend, I leave early and get home after dark so no time to get good pics.

Price? hadn't got that far yet, haven't found a FZ1 to buy yet.

I guess a new system costs $260 US + postage (FZ6 2004-2009 Carbon [EX-00747] - $259.20)
Mine are 6 months old and in good condition - $160 US + postage (remember, I'm in Australia, not sure on postage cost)

Does that sound reasonable?
Let me know if you're interested, I'll hopefully be selling the 6 and buying a 1 in the next couple of months.

Cheers,
Mac.

Thanks for your reply, I have decided I will go stock and sell separately.
Once I find a FZ1 for me I'll strip the 6, clean her up and see what I can get.

I have already started lurking on the FZ1 site :Lurking:

The price seems very reasonable, but I didn't noticed you were from Australia (thought of Newcastle, UK) and that is really a bit expensive.

I did have a quick look at prices online, it could cost as little as $50 US (see attached).
That is with Australia Post, there might be other options?

I'm not in a rush to sell, I still haven't found a FZ1 yet.
I'll keep you informed of my progress and you can have first option if you want.

Cheers,
Mac.

Ok.

Best of luck with it.
