i have an 03 blaster and an 02 kawasaki kdx200, both in great shape, im looking to trade them both in to get a shee, i was wondering if you think theyd do a straight trade like that or would they insist on some cash?

the KDX is in REALLY good condition, its ony had probably 4 tanks of gas run, and i paid $4000 for it,
the blaster is in good condition too, the only thing wrong with it is the rear grab bar is scraped a little, from a wheelie that got away, lol. i paid $3250 for it.
the blaster has probably only had 7 or 8 tanks, if that.
i dont know how much they'll give me for the two, but i know they'll screw me over, they always do.
at the most, id give them the two bikes and $1000 cash, i dont wanna spend any more than that.
i would sell the bikes and get more money for them, but nobodys buying this time of year.

any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

 

So you know there goin to 'Jerk' you already...
So why don't you sell the bikes on your own & get what you want for them....
There's a ton of free classified sites to put them on, U can also try ebay..

 

well, like i said, i would, but i know that there arent many people buying this time of year, the prime selling time is just before summer, but i dont want to wait that long to get the shee, or to sell the other bikes. i suppose all i can do is just trade them in and get what i can.

 

This is a great time to sell; actually the winter is better because people are looking for deals. Set your prices right and they should sell fast leaving you with all the money you'll need for a new 'shee

 

If i were you id trade in the Blaster and put the KDX in the classifieds and sell it, that way youll be sure that you have enough money for the shee. U will be able to sell the kdx for alot more than u would get on the trade.

 

I'm going through the same thing right now, trust me when I say the dealerships arent going to give you squat and you will only feel offended at the end of the day. I have been trying to trade my 2002 Kawasaki ninja ZX-^R for a Raptor. Long story short Offerings on my bike are somewhere near $4,000 when the blue book is $6,000 AND they want another $1500-2,000. They want to make $$$$ both wayson your trade and from your wallett. My suggestion is be Patient and set your price right on e-bay or on of the free listings in some of the forums.
