    Asking price for race bike?

    Hey all, I'll ask here and over at the MRA forums, but IDK where to even start to price my 2011 KTM RC8R Track if I were to sell it. This next year is shot and having two bikes is going to be difficult with all my work requirements this year. I'd rather see someone use the bike than see it in my garage. May be going up on WERA.

    I thought about trying to get it titled, but a VIN inspection may not go well if they read the VIN sticker...

    Anyway, bike with upgrades:

    Akra CF sprocket and tire hugger.
    Under fairing motovation frame sliders.
    SAMCO Sport Hoses
    Remote Adjuster
    GiPro Gear Indicator
    GB Case Sliders
    COX Rad Guard

    Also includes CapIT warmers, rear stand, triple stand, and fork stand.

    521 miles w/ oil change after each use.

    Original data:

    » Performance 180 PS
    » Akrapovic EVO exhaust
    » Enclosed is a thinner head gasket to increase compression
    » Race mapping
    » Race air filter
    » WP Suspension Racing suspension
    » Automatic quickshifter
    » Racing wiring harness
    » Complete race cladding
    » KTM PowerParts foot pegs
    » KTM PowerParts Fold down hand lever
    » Racing seat
    » Racing brake pads
    » Racing chain with alu rear sprocket
    » KTM PowerParts racing tank lid
    » KTM PowerParts rear stand
    » Race Slipper Clutch
    » KTM PowerParts crash pads and protective cover
    » Slick tires 17`
    Obviously 100% race orientated, it doesn't really permit a lot of room for error (truth). If you're not sure how awesome it is to ride, ask TechnoJoe.

    I think it handles better and has better geometry/ergonomics for racing than my Panigale hands down.





    Quick walk around I just did:

    Such a great unique motorcycle to take out to the track, that's for sure. Loved every second of that thing.

    As for pricing, I have no idea what you should ask. you COULD ebay it. Wish like hell that I had extra cash to spend on it

    On second thought, put it on the WERA forum. I bet there's a racer somewhere on that forum that would love to buy it

    I was linked to a sale of one last year, and I was pretty close in what I was thinking. I wish I could sell it to someone I knew, but that is probably asking too much.

    I dont have $, but i do have a manhug and some pocket lint to throw out there for you. Its only homo if theres' eye contact whilst we embrace. Other than that, its completely acceptable.

    Seriously though, That is an absolutely beautiful bike. I have a feeling you wknt have any troubles finding it a new home.
