I almost bought a 2016 in black with the checkers. The ctx was appraised the week before at $3500 on trade for a used FZ-09. The fz was too wild for me so I didn't buy it. The dealer that offered me $3500 for my ctx had a mechanic look it over. The ctx had heated grips, centre stand, new tires and new chain and even though it had 23000 km had only been on the road for 5 months. On a $10999 demo 2016 cb1100 with 4300 km they offered me $2500 for the ctx without even looking at it. The kicker was the new tires, chain and centre stand were put on at that dealership. I said if they meet me halfway at $3000 they have a deal. Nope $2500 firm, so I walked. Then I found my 2013 for $5200 US with all the touring gear I was going to buy. Can't wait to see the look on their faces when they ask me how much I paid!!!!! My 2013 has 3700 miles on it, so I think I'll have it a while.
