Thinking of selling

Hey guys im on the fence about selling my 08 zx14. Im not sure exactly sure what its worth so ide like a few opinions. Its silver with 3,700 miles.The bike has never been dropped and has been babied. Heres the list of mods.

ENGINE

-Full brocks street meg exhaust
-Power Commander with brocks map (dynoed 187) I have the dyno sheet
-BMC Street Filter

EXTERIOR

-Billet mirror deletes
-Smooth side panels painted flat black
-Lower fairings also painted flat black and the solo seat cowl has a custom flat black two tone on the body line
-Ebay fender eliminator with LEDs
-Smoked clear alternatives integrated tail and smoked rear signals
-Chrome stickers removed and replaced with black sticker (except tank since stickers are under clear coat)

I might be missing a couple things but thats about it. let me know what you all think. Thanks

I wouldn't expect much over blue book, to be honest with you. You may get a few extra bucks because of the exhaust but since dealers will be throwing bikes out the door to make room for the 2010's, this may be a hard time to sell.

I guess we all consider ours "babied" but when it has full exhaust, power commander, and race filter with a dyno sheet.....
Without any haggling, I can get a brand new 08 for $10,600 including all taxes and fees. I would take a stab at $8500? Blue book is so far behind with this economy, you may want to get a cycle trader and see what things are selling for in your area.

New ones can be bought for around $9500 or less these days. I am waiting to see if Kawasaki puts on some big rebates like Honda has. You can buy a '08 Honda CBR 1000 for under $7000.
