I consider very high and very low selling prices to be outliers, the selling/buying will almost always follow some sort of a bell curve and be in the middle. Sometimes when folks are offering an opinion on a bike one may make a statement "I just bought one for XYZ", either a high or low number.

IMO, it boils down to 3 things....how wide of an audience does the seller want to include in the sale (Local vs. E.B) whether or not they are willing to breakdown, pack and ship and what the buyer is willing to pay and how long they are willing to wait.

The only way to test the market and the value of the bike as others have said is to put the higher valuation on the bike and see if it sells. if it does great, if it doesn't, then hold it, and wait for the "right" buyer .....or lower the price untill it sells. The market value at a given point in time.

I hope that the OP will report back to us with the selling price on the bike.

BTW ,high valuations can do the same dis-service to a new/uniformed seller, setting an expectation that might not be realizable.
