it's a sad day in our household

[tonycarver]

looks like we are going to have to sell the bike! some asshole specialist that my normal doctor sent me to has yanked my licence due to perceived health concerns. I've had two small TIA's (mini-strokes you completely recover from) in the last 5 years and am on a blood thinner diet. my REAL Doc never saw a problem with me driving but this dickwad (god complex) saw fit after just a 10 min interview to send a letter to the MOT (DMV) pulling my licence. (word to the wise...never tell your doctor EVERYTHING). SO......all that being said we are selling the bike. i'm sure i will get cleared to ride again but it's just a big piece of unfulfilled memories sitting in the driveway as of now.
the reason i'm posting this is to ask Ya'll what you think a black 2013 is worth with a mustang seat, Givi luggage rack, Scorpio alarm system, a zumo GPS and a 9" smoked windscreen and HID headlamps. if we rode it more than 6 times since buying it, i'd be surprised. it has had it's first oil change done and was stored at the Honda dealership we bought it at in Barrie, Ontario over the winter. any ideas you have are welcome. i know selling in the fall aint the best time of year but if we wait until next spring we're behind by another model year. I'll keep me eyes on this post, is it wise to leave one's email address here on the forum or wait for responses. so disappointed but hey....it is what it is.F6B all done.jpg

Sorry to hear of your issues...A real "Bummer"...Hope you can get your license back one day and ride again...I am not sure what the market is like where you live but around here you would be lucky to get $13,000......Regards....

Yeah , sorry to hear about your health issues. I would be a little more generous than Opas. U think maybe $14,000. Good luck brother.

[DaWadd]

I'd tuck it away till you get your license back. Good luck either way.

Check your PMs when you can. I have a question.

[unsub]

Don't sell it!

I have a question though. Did you buy this bike new and add the goodies or did you just buy it as is from the dealer within the last year?

Thanks

I just checked Nada prices and Kelly prices for fun and they suggest that a 2013 Deluxe with extras could bring $16,000 or more????...I would love that info to be accurate, but when new leftover 2013/14's are going for as low as $13,800 to $15,000 around here, I question their estimates!!

[Wing'n it]

New 13 leftovers around me are bringing 16-17k. Man that sucks that a doctor can make a call and your a non-driver. In the states here you could be dead and still drive (most act like it) so long as you don't slump over.

Sorry your license got pulled. Sorry you have to sell the bike. But not sorry your doctor may have saved some other innocent persons life from a tragic traffic accident.

hey fellow F6'ers thanks for all the support. i wasn't looking for sympathy for sure....lol. my main "peeve" with the doc's knee jerk reaction is, what about someone with a pace-maker??? or a triple bypass surgery under their belt. if i felt that there was ANY realistic possibility that i could harm someone I'd hang up the helmet and get an e-bike. you folks down south of us canucks enjoy more freedoms from interference than we do. as a rider i ALWAYS am on the lookout for "the idiot" on the road. its not me i'm worried about, it's the dude texting, eating putting make up on, on the phone etc. not trying to start a controversy here. thanks again for letting me know where i stand as far a resale goes. it's very much appreciated and shows why this forum is a great place to exchange ides and such.
