Ride like you own it..!
Nice bike and features, too bad it's too far, one of my friend is interested, but he can't decide until he rides mine, which is getting postponed from past 3 months. Maybe he will test ride my stock ones this weekend.
Anyway, how many miles on it?
When I saw the name Scott, I thought TownsendsFJR1300 (his bike is also blue), then I remember he has SSS.
Until you join this site, you don't know its value and people doesn't spend much time on the site and then buy something (which I'm doing now, joined FZ-09 and Triumph STR, as I may see myself owning them one day; learned from FZ6)
Not only FZ, none of the bike's value until you come to its forum and learn that these are the mods which are required.
When I first search for a bike, 5 months ago, I looked for cheap and stock bike, I don't like someone messing around with the internals.
I doubt 'that' caused 'this' problem and it'll be there in my mind until the bike dies.

He bought a Pig! That's what he calls his BMW GS
Yup. I bought Pig over two years ago now.
I still love my fizzer. But, I wanted to do more tours and vacations, and I can't ride the Yammie for more than 90 minutes, butt hurts a little but the knees scream (I'm getting older, arthritic, and have a 37" inseam). I've prepared to sell fizzer several times, but I always take her for one last burn up the Wasatch canyons, and come home shaking my head "not yet".
I can afford to keep Her, but I live in a small house and its a pain shuffling everything around to mow the lawn, but much worse to snow-blow the driveway. $225 insurance/year for maybe three rides, it just doesn't make sense to keep Her around, she'd make someone else so happy (this is a FANTASTIC bike).
Thanks for pointing out I didn't post the mileage. I bought my '07, used, in '07, with 1,400 miles on Her, for $5,500 (original owner's wife Told him he didn't like it ). I got a damn good deal. She now has 28,000 on Her, certainly not VegasRider numbers but considering She hasn't been ridden much at all the last two years...
It'll hurt, but it makes sense.
Still, it's been on the market for over a day and not a single phone call yet...

Part out the farkles. The FZ6 attracts new riders (this was my first "real" bike) and most will not know the benefits of the stuff you have, or may not want the mods at all. In fact, it may detract buyers thinking the bike may not have been adult ridden. While this is not reality, it's just the perception. It's more of a pain to make a bunch of small sales, but you'll be able to afford to drop the price and sell it faster.
If you want to leave the bike as is, consider explaining the benefits of each mod and putting a value on it.
Regardless, describe your ownership, the maintenance, mileage, condition, how it was stored (garage?), reason for selling, etc. The more you put into the description, the more people will know you cared about this bike its entire life.
