OT: But it is about a Honda scooter, at least!

Post by Bash On! »

Hi all-

Seeking advice from the smart folks here. Local dealer has a leftover new 2012 Honda Silver Wing (FSC600A) in stock. Think that's the model with ABS. The model is still on the Honda website with a list price of $9,620 (!). There are a lot of nice bikes and scooters for that price, but I'd consider the Silver Wing if the dealer would let it go cheap.

What do you think of this model?

What's a fair price for this leftover model?

Thanks!
Bash

Consider going on craigslist in your area. Many dealers put this type of stock on there to compete with the used ones. Here is an example of what I am talking about. Notice that the price is down to $7k now.
Currently own:
Red 2013 Honda PCX150

Givi tall windshield & tailbox - Lots of extra lights
Custom seat from Thailand - Bad Boy Airhorn
Takegawa Lowering Shocks - Michelin City Grip Tires

Its an excellent scooter.
A 2012 one is the same as a 2015 one.
No idea what US and A price should be.
