Honda Gyro price
I'm selling my 1986 Honda Gyro. Was looking for some opinions on the price i was asking. I was asking $975, I'm not getting alot of responses on it. just some offers like would you take $400 cash for it.
I thought $975 was fair, because it has the battery and engine covers. Take a look and let me know what you think. Thanks jim

Re: Honda Gyro price
You are simply offering an item that not many people have ever seen, or heard of.
The quirkiness of Gyro takes a particular appreciation, which most will never possess.
Your price is fair, and would be getting more replies in a Florida or western market...
edit: I paid $600, $800, and $360 for the 3 I have bought in the last 5 years.
The $800 trike turned out to be the worst one.
It is sitting in the corner of the garage just gathering cobwebs waiting for
the '85 I ride to break down...and I can't seem to break it...

Re: Honda Gyro price
I sold my 84 Gyro for $1200. It did have new paint, decals, tires and looked great.
This should give you an idea what to ask.
Please keep in mind that the general public has no idea how rare these are, and the majority of people dont want scooters that wont go over 40 mph. So yes the market is very limited on who will buy it, but there are a lot of collectors who do know what it is, your mission is to find those guys.

Re: Honda Gyro price
Thanks for the replies. May give it a little more time, then list it on ebay. I thought it was priced reasonable and i know it will get chewed down some.
Re: Honda Gyro price
Set your reserve price where you won't have to sell it for cheap...compute the fees first...

Re: Honda Gyro price
This gyro is in pretty nice shape, except for a couple of small problems.
1 The glass is missing on the speedometer
2 missing the screw for the engine cover
I have a extra speedometer that goes with the sale.
I'm not sure of how the engine cover attaches to the fender cowl.
There is a hole in the engine cover that lines up with Tab with a hole in the cowl.
But the hardware is missing. Does anyone know what I'm missing?
Thanks jim

Re: Honda Gyro price
After 2 or 3 weeks on craigslist and not one person coming down to see it, you guys convinced me to give ebay a shot. Feel free to check it out and put in a bid. I'm sure you can guess the reserve.

Its not setting the world on fire, don't think it will come close to the 12-1500 mark.graphite9 wrote:Sold mine a few months back for $1000. And yours looks really clean. I wouldn't take less than 950. Ebay will probably get you $12--1500

Re: Honda Gyro price
.....pffft, REALLY ?graphite9 wrote:thats a steal. Seriously
the batt cover is worth $200
rear fender $290
air box and motor cover $150
plastics on floorboard $200
Those are just a few pieces. I bet you'd actually get close to $14-1600 on ebay.

Re: Honda Gyro price
Well the ebay listing ended at a whopping $203. I relisted it,but i don't think it will do much better.

According to graphite9, you can sell the plastics for over $800...which I find unlikely.
This poor response to your complete, very nice Gyro seems to support my doubts.

Re: Honda Gyro price
I think those plastic prices were on the high side, but I think graphite9 did have a point that this scooter is worth more in pieces.
Hopefully I can find a buyer for it in one piece. Just need a bidding war to break out.

Re: Honda Gyro price
Try explaining more about the gyro s in your ad. Emphasize that it tilts in the turns but doesn't fall over, it is quality Japanese Honda unlike the modern import honda, the moped status means cheap insurance and good on fuel...

Re: Honda Gyro price
Thanks eliteguy50 . I took your advice and your words added to my craigslist ad.
I tried it on ebay, but it wasn't taking my youtube link.
