As soon as i read that, i did not want to read any further. Your honesty is wonderful; but it is more like an ebay ad than a Craigslist ad. On ebay the buyer might be traveling 500 miles to come look at the bike.
Take out the sentence "Any buyer must be willing to install these parts.....". If they pay you $3,000 for your bike, you don't really care what they do.
True enough, just seemed like a waste of parts.
The price is too high for a "regular" PCX. So you are looking for one buyer out of 1,000 who will appreciate everything you've done.
Is it? Local listings are $3500 for a 2013 model, though admittedly not as "worn" as this one.

Take the new price, divide by seven and you're getting close to what its worth in its current state.
If you still have the original parts, to boost the return, restore it to original and sell the modifications separately.
Great in theory, but not in practice. Given that the local scooter shop screwed me over, my other alternative would be to pay upwards of $1,000(solely in labor) for my motorcycle dealer to do the job.
I figure if I can't get even $2000 for it, I'd just keep it as is and use it til something breaks down.
