What sort of mileage would you consider selling your forza?

Post by Bitcoin_Gav »

Hi guys,

Currently got 22k miles on my forza and not sure if it would be best selling it now while it has a good bit of value in it or just run it till it dies. Not sure how at what mileage these engines start to fail or problems happen, I know it depends on maintenance etc but there has to be an average life span of them.

It runs a sweet as a nut at the moment

It will last for as long as you maintain it and has the potential to outlast you.

I'm at almost 17k USA miles and I am kind of sure no one will buy my bike at those miles unless I drop the price to say 2,200 or so.

I’ve looked online and in the UK a 2015-2016 with around 22k miles is going for £2400-2700 so they are holding value well hence why I was considering cashing in on it and either buying a new/newish one.

Yes, easy guys.
Now let's stay on topic please.

:oops: Sorry about all that Bitcoin_Gav
May I ask...have you made a decision to sell or hold? If I had my eye on another bike why of course I'd sell. I fall in love easily (not always a good thing, mind you). I put the blame on..."We only live once" :D
