There was a new in the crate late nineties CR 500 at Motosport in Hillsboro Oregon a few months ago. They refused an offer (not mine) of 18K. I guess the value of a bike is dependant on who you ask and who is asking.

Supply and demand. Why is a 69 copo camaro worth half a mill now when it was 9k new?

Just because you dont "get it" or arent interested and its worthless to you, doesnt mean thats the end of it. You arent the market. That's fine. Buy a bike to ride thats common and depreciates and move on...
Ok. Fair enough. So why then, does a 2007 cr250(ultra common and depreciates) appreciate at twice the price?

So, that bike is worth more than a twin carb Puch?

If this bike was sitting in a dealership in the unused condition its in, never started. What do you think they would charge? Plus you won't have to worry about set up fees. Sarcasm

Never paid much attention to a Puch. Only one I ever saw was a moped parked in my friends garage as a kid.

I'm not advocating for the bike. I could care less. What it's worth is what someone is willing to pay. Would I ? Nope. I already got a bike. Would someone else? There's always a chance.

It's a brand new never started last of it's kind cr250. it's not really appreciating 2x over.. if you take inflation into account this bike if made today would be 8-9 grand. Now add in the fact it's not made anymore, 2 strokes have a loyal fan base and it's brand new, some collector is going to be willing to pay a premium for it.

It's not an exact science. It's a "I really really want it and I have money to burn" free for all.

They made ALOT of 69 camaros. Cars are generally depreciating as well...if you came across one new never started in pristine condition...what would you think it would be worth? There are many 07 cr250s out there. Very very left in absolutely brand new condition. As was mentioned its an iconic bike because its the last honda 250 2 stroke made as well.

Are you really this dense or just pretending? Things like this is why i started the low iq post a while back.

I took a few minutes to look them up last night. They were quite trick for their time. The oldest full size bike I've ridden was a 76 RM 370 that belonged to my uncle . I'm 42 now and didn't really get into bikes until 1984. Still a lot to learn.

Interesting theory. Dont see it working that way. Im a millenial and the 05-07 cr's were new in dealers when i was just getting into moto at 15 years old or so. So to me these are what moto is about.

Many others can likely see that too. And this whole millenials not having money thing is interesting. That's not just a millenial thing plenty of folks far older than me are broker than hell despite making 90k a year every year. Anyways lol.

Not to mention when the whole electric bike thing takes off. Be careful-the insults are heading your way...

I originally bought some extra two strokes as I am not a four stroke fan aside from my dual sport and adventure bikes. Didn't get them to make money someday. Reality is parts are and will continue to be difficult to get to rebuild them. Part numbers are dropped everyday. So I sold off three of my never fired KX's. And bought new Husky two strokes. They blend in well with my other bikes, KDX and KX500s. Still have one new KX500 and am going to keep it.
No need to explain bro. I hope you get twice what you paid for them. These clowns pissing and moaning are probably the same ones trying to fight guys that make an offer on what they're trying to sell.

It's pretty simple, really. Joe Blow agrees the bike is worth "X" amount, and he pays it. You don't think it's worth it, so you don't buy it and instead, you come on hear and complain about it. Boom. Financial magic.

Remember I'm dense. Could you further explain it the same way...but different? I like magic.

Not making it personal by disagreeing but, in all honesty I think collectors are the ones hoping to preserve what motocross is. Memories. Looking back at an era long forgotten, a trip down memory lane or, even in my case showing my kid the bikes I rode as a kid. If it wasn't for the preservation of our sport, we would not be able to look at how far and advanced motocross is these days compared to years ago. Many collections also go to museums. But, then again what do I know? I thought of a moped when Puch was mentioned.

Is five years of trade school uneducated? I made a choice to get involved as a tradesman at twenty years old. Its a choice anyone can make.
Three kinds of people
Those who watch things happen
Those who make things happen
Those who wonder what happened
Millennials have the same choices I did twenty two years ago.

I would be far more interested in a 2007 CR250 than a 2020 CRF450, for sure. Would I spend that much on one? Maybe not.

Explain to me what the collectors are destroying?

There is tons of used bikes out there to be ridden and raced. A brand new bike like this is rare.

Vintage MX is probably better off without you.

What I've been trying to say-

Let's consider buying 2 2020's for the same price of the 2007. That's where I just can't understand.

If you buy 2 x 2020's you're probably going to be riding them, and they're definitely going to be worth less in 2 days time than they are today.

If you buy that one 07 CR 250 you're more than likely not riding it, you're collecting it. And it's not likely to go down in value.

Two different target markets. If you want to ride an 07 CR250 that one isn't for you. If you cant understand why that one is priced the way it is, then its also not for you. Same as art. I dont understand how a Picasso or Rembrandt is worth millions of dollars, im not the person that is interested in buying them though.

I'm going to hang on to my cr's because I have noticed that they are bringing 3 grand and up for clean ones....$2500 for junk around here.......

These are the last Honda 2 stroke Elsinore made?????? I don't see the 2007 Honda cr 250 that is complete and clean not appreciating in value from here on out.....In fact I'm betting on it.....I used to give 1500 bucks for every cr 250 that I could find.....now I've bumped that up to $2000.....and I'm not getting many bought anymore......they are already getting sold at $3000 plus......
