fair asking price for 750 sx ?

[slickchaos]

found a seller selling a 94 kawi 750 sx, in running good shape.

AS far as im told it is stock, selling offered to sell it to me for 1300.

I was looking to spend 1K on a used ski, but i dont find to many 750's around here..

Is this a fair price for the ski ?

IM gonna go look at it this weekend and is there anything problematic with these skis to look for ?

thanks
:woot:

hell no 1300 is way to much 1000 sounds alright

 

[slickchaos]

i thought the reasonable price was 1K-1200, figuring where i live, 750's & SJ are harder to find.. 650s are more common..

i can grab one 89 650 sx for 500 running, needs paint job.. but thats no problem.. id rather get a bigger engine if possible...

I paid $1350 for mine on a trailer - then sold trailer for $275 so I ended up with $1050 in the ski.
This was mid summer and ski was mint.

Fun ski, but not a SJ :frown:

Not a bad deal if it's clean... lot of fun for the $$$ IMHO.

$1300 is a fair price. $1000 is cheap. i usually see them sell for $1000-$1700

Sounds fair as long as it's super clean.

Fair price for up here, just based on how hard it is to find any damn standup where we are. You've been looking a long time. I'd grab it. As far as problems, I can't really think of any. I had three Kawi 750s till I sold the Pro(now have 2), never had an issue with any of them. Charge battery, clean plugs...it's all good.

Prices depend on where you live. For example, out here in california i can sell skis for WAY more than what i see them going for on this board!! I sold 2 550s for 1k each last year!! Stock 650 SJs usually go for 1500 u RARLEY find them below 1k.

 

[wydopen]

oh you wouldnt believe what i just found...its too good to be true...i wont brag till we got em though dont want to curse myself...keep your lips sealed oxnard111

 

[SuperjetSteve]

well i got a 750 with,scoop grate,0 degree bars, paint, AC pole, oil block off for 1300 and also got a all stock 750 in amazing condition for 1000

 

[slickchaos]

sxi said earlier.. they are tough o get a 750 out here. so im gonna go ahead grab it, pending that it runs ok when i see it..

here is an engine pic, i just got.. its all stock from what he said, but looks like there are 2 pissers.. that normal ? on the side of the ski.i thought there was just one., let me know if u see anythink problematic in the engine pic.. oh and i know the battery is not in .

thanks everyone for ur comments..

and theres a sand thingy in there becuase?

 

[BombThreat]

i was thinking the same thing! lol

 

[Shonuff]

Engine looks pretty good.

Are you sure the twin pissers you see aren't the twin bilges?

Looks like it is just taking up space where the oil injection used to be.

who doesnt enjoy a little castle building in between rides.

seems a little high $ and engine doesnt look super clean. i bought a 92 with an aluminum handpole and other stuff for $800 a few years back.

kawis usually have poor low end pull, but if your not linebacker sized you should be o.k.

good luck

 

[Scorn800]

After seeing the motor pic. $1300 is too high.
Boat looks well used to put it nice.
I'd offer $800

The small pin 750 have lower porting and give a little better low end.
