I have had a discussion going on in the "Member Introduction" forum which I have received a number of great information from.
Now, my question is, I am going to go take a look at a 2014 model with the fairing. It currently has 2,300+ miles on it. One owner. Asking price $4,500. Now from what I learned in the introduction post is that the price is high for the current market. So my goal will be to if interested come in no higher than $4,000. I did do a internet search and located a dealership in Shawnee, OK that has 2014 CTX700 with fairing priced at $4,995 or 2014 tour model with fairing and bags for $5,295. I do not know, but assume that these prices do not include shipping, dealer prep fees which would raise the price by hundreds of $.
OK, I got a bit wordy supplying too much information. My Question is, when looking at a pre-owned 2014 CTX700 is there anything that I need to check for that is a common gremlin on these bikes?
From most of what I have read, if you take care of the basics the bike will provide miles of smiles asking for little in return. Except gas...and darn little of that given the mpg of the 700.
Thank you in advance for your sharing of knowledge, information and hands on ownership.
