Beautiful bike. Not sure if its a no reserve auction.

I've been wondering where Damfino had got to. Sad to read in the advertisement that he's had health problems.

Bike should be a good buy; with 1,381 miles ridden it's barely run in.

Pretty bike. I love his eBay ID: buttsmoocher.

 

[tomkat_imp]

What would be a fair price for this bike?

 

[BestStandard_imp]

No reserve so the bike will be sold. Look at the bid history... it started out yesterday evening at 99 cents and its already over $8K with 22 bids and 5 days 22 hours to go. This one will be interesting to watch!!!

I always got a smile out of his forum handle too—Your user name is in danger

I bet this bike will break 9K, might even get close to 10K. I personally love the red Deluxe as so many others do, but there are brand new black 2014's collecting dust that can be had for $6999. I am trying to rationalize spending 2 - 2.5K more for a used bike vs. a new black.

The Deluxe is like hens teeth - only more desirable. Wildguzzi seems to be down this morning.

Dave, if I had the opportunity (because there are no DLXs in Aus), the cash and the option, I'd buy a used DLX over the standard. The only rationalization is that you prefer it. Of course, if you don't have the cash, get a good deal on a standard.

A DLX with 1300 miles on it and a warranty until 2019 IS new ( practically speaking)

I went through the same agonizing rationale as you did back in Jan. A brand new black one had my name on it waiting for me to sign the papers for $6999 plus $80 doc fee. The day before I was to go get it, someone here put up his dlx, identical to this one on ebay. I quickly jumped on it, flew out there and rode her home. Best decision I've made in my entire mc ownership history.

 

[Cormanus]

14 hours to go. $8,777 on the table.

 

[jedd_imp]

So happy I already have mine. Otherwise I'd be on pins and needles waiting for the last last 10 seconds to snipe that gorgous DLX above $9k.

 

[Cormanus]

Lovely, isn't it?

 

[Dave Swanson]

Sold for 10579! That new black standard for 6999 is looking better all the time!

 

[the Ferret]

Like owning a Picasso I tell ya

 

[BestStandard_imp]

Thanks to this forum folks are realizing DLXs are as rare as a Picasso!! Too bad Honda won't verify if our estimate of 300 made (based on the regestry) is correct.

 

[Motogeezer1949_imp]

Jedd, do you use a snipe app?
I like Auction Sniper. It can be set to be down to the last 2 or 3 seconds.
Hasn't failed me yet

I'm glad Damfino got a good price for his DLX but very sorry he had to sell it.
