Thinking about selling my Burgman 650

Not quite sure what to do
Since the wife has passed her CBT we now go out riding with the two Vespa GTS's and enjoy this much more then riding the Burgman with the two of us up. Once again we've been out today the the two vespa's and had a fab ride. Not quite sure if i want to sell or not but it's daft having the Burgman just sitting it the garage not being used.
Not sure what to ask if i were going to sell. I see a new one is now £8799 mine is 17 months old and done 3000 miles, never been out in the rain and is cleaned every time we ride it. In fact it's in showroom condition.
What do you guys think and would anyone here be interested?

Put it on eBay see what happens. If it goes it goes, if not it'll stay

Does this prove that smaller scoots are more fun?

Suzuki gave £750 off that £ 8,799 price when I bought mine, and later increased the discount to £ £1000.
Given that the VAT of 20% is lost as soon as you drive it away then based on the fact that we are going into Winter, it is nearly two years old and has 3k miles on the clock, I would be expecting to get it for a bargain price if I was buying one from you.
On the plus side, I ride all year and the 650 Burgman makes more sense in the winter than a Sports Bike.
I would keep it!

Trouble with selling stuff is that it is only worth what others will pay for it. In mid 2013 couldn't sell my early 2011 Burgman with low mileage for £4500. Best offer I had was £4000 but I ended up getting £4600 in px against an £8K secondhand bike. Its a right bastard trying to sell stuff. Good luck with whatever you decide.

This is so true.
To be honest i don't need to sell it and I'm buggered if i'm going to give it away.
