I would think 5,000 would be closer to reserve.

It was passed in at $6300 earlier today (I was tracking it), so the reserve is obviously higher than that.

Interesting subtle red pin striping.
The bidding has started again.  Up to $2025 with most of 7 days to go.  A automatic bid of $7001 might snag it.
It's certainly got the basic farkles, although I'm not a fan of after-market exhausts on the ST13.

I like the OEM pipes better as well.

Happy with my Staintunes , a slightly better note, lighter and after a recent minor mod no need to remove a muffler to remove the rear axle.
So my OEM mufflers are sitting in the box  and for sale if someone buys it and wants to go back to standard. Think they only did 100 kms or so.

Looks like it has the police switch gear on the rh handlebar - but is also looks like a genuine 2 seater to me as well         :think1


I believe Police specials have the designation ST1300P.

It's an after-market seat, and with the box behind the police seat removed, it becomes a genuine 2 seater.   :thumb

Pillion foot pegs?

Pillion foot pegs?

Mandatory requirement for dual seat.  I put a pair of Yamaha footpegs on the ST1100P when I converted it.
The frame is a standard ST13 frame, so the casting is there for footpegs.
It's missing the plastic infill over the battery for some reason.

Wasn't that panel a 2008 improvement?

The only 1300 that comes (from bluecity website) for 2006 is a police model and the picture doesn't show the infill panel either. It also shows amber indicator lenses up front but it could also be a generic image used for all models

Yes infills were from 2008. It appears to have handle bar risers which I thought were standard on police bikes

You known it would probably have been just easier to ask him.
The bike has now been passed in a second time, made hundred more than the first time.
Relisted.

Yeah, bit of a dill, needs to advertise a price he`s happy with, and let the public decide. Cause its not happening on a 99 cent start.. :wht11

"Will post to Australia" If has been turned in several times at 6,200 to 6,400 and is still sitting at 6,400. One would think that is what the market will be bear.

Geez i would have thought that $8500 was a good price for what it is!! I`d have it if I was in the market, but haven't finished with the 1100 yet... :wht11

eBay probably isn't representative of the whole bike market.  Not everyone thinks of eBay first when they want a bike.  Besides- the basic assumption regarding eBay is that you'll get a bargain.  Hence the lack of willingness to bid realistically.
I can't see the mileage anywhere Did anyone ring and find out?  If it was lowish, $8500 might be achievable if he's patient.

69000kms.

Post by: Biggles on June 01, 2015, 03:42:59 PM
69000kms.

In May 2009 when I bought my 2004 ST13, it had 66,000 on it and I paid $16,000 which was about right then, I thought.
This one is older and the market has changed, but I think $8500 would be fairly right, even $9K for a motivated buyer.  It's just we inhabit a limited market niche, and I think there is a general economic slump.

Candy Red 2009 ST1300 at TeamMoto Cairns with 32,000 km for $10790.  Incl topbox.
That adds a bit more perspective.

I should have said what the eBay market will bear.

That's obviously the price he should have accepted.  Even dealers will adjust their price to meet the market.
