    I am looking for more fuel effeciency. More storage space for my commute. I am lean towards a 400 or 500 cc scooter.

    Am I asking too much? I see bids on E-Bay up near 2000.00 . I have not tried to sell there but I do have it on Craigslist. Should I be closer to 1200 or less? From what I have seen for sale around hear a bike in good running condition is a steal for 1500. Can you all give me some feed back.

    1500 for that bike sounds like a decent sale, for both buyer and seller.

    I paid $1000 for it's twin in April. It had 17,995 miles on it but the tires will probably need to be replaced next year. I thought I got a great deal. I might have paid $1500 for it.

    Judging from the pics your price is right on the mark. You will see some with less miles go for more but I think your price is fine. I personally wouldn't accept anything less than $1200 assuming mechanically everything is in working order.

    I agree your pricing looks right to me. Closer to Christmas the prices can jump and of course the spring. If you can hold it till spring you will probably sell it quick

    I think the price is right.

    I've spent a lot of time the last month on ebay and craigs list and based on what sales I've seen in those places your price is a good selling price. I wouldn't go below $1200 for sure.
    I'd ride it before I sold it for less, just my opinion.
