You can expect to pay close to this figure. 10k +/- from this figure is a realistic expectation as long as the bike is maintained well and also since it has low miles on it.

How can a used ninja 2010 model cost 2.3 L ???Originally posted by n_aditya View PostInsurance for a 2010 model in the 2nd year will value the bike at Rs. 2.3L in Bangalore.

when New in mubai comes for 3.2 L
@parry: how come it's only 2600kms run only

, was it in a showcase ??
2010 model should cost around 2L if it's in real superb comndtion!! else it will come more down near to 1.75 L
There is a second dealer in Bhiwandi for used bikes. He quoted 1.25 lakhs for my friends good ninja June 2010 model. if he sells with a good comission than it would be 1.75 Lac. He said "Sir mostly no one comes to buy a Ninja in market that too a second one, he said selling tips I am blocking my money on this bike, if you want to give at 1.4L last."
We din't sell as it was breaking a lot. he wanted to go for HD.
Any owner will feel bad when he's hard earn money breaks like hell while selling

I have not merely reversed the figures mate. I have given an explanation for the figure quoted.Originally posted by somen1984 View PostHow can a used ninja 2010 model cost 2.3 L ??? when New in mubai comes for 3.2 L
Could be a genuine case of owner buying it and having no time to ride it. A lot of people in IT jobs travel a lot and otherwise are a busy bunch with work sucking up their weekends too.Originally posted by somen1984 View Post@parry: how come it's only 2600kms run only

Hah ! No one in their right frame of mind will sell their ninja for such a low price unless its a distress sale mate.Originally posted by somen1984 View Post2010 model should cost around 2L if it's in real superb comndtion!! else it will come more down near to 1.75 L
Like i mentioned, the ninja's IDV (Insured declared value) for the 2nd year is 2.3 lacs. Even if i burn the bike and claim insurance, i will get 2 lac 7 thousand (90% of IDV). Why will anyone sell the bike for a price lower than the IDV?
dude, how do you conclusively know he would make only 50k on the above sale? It could be a LOT higher. Dealers are known to quote very low and make fat profits... if not, they would choose another professionOriginally posted by somen1984 View PostThere is a second dealer in Bhiwandi for used bikes.

Edit - does he really know what the ninja is or did he think it was a mod-job on a pulsar or R15?

Just because you & your friend went to a dealer and asked its price, does not make it a standard price. If you can provide a bike in superb condition, below 3000 km run at lesser than 2 lakhs, I have couple of friends waiting to buy them. Please hurry.Originally posted by somen1984 View PostThere is a second dealer in Bhiwandi for used bikes.

Hey Adi, any idea if they have dealers for the 3M PPF in Pune? Im quite paranoid when it comes to scratches on my baby ninja!Originally posted by n_aditya View PostI use a tailbag which rendered the rear tails on my ninja scratch prone (people call me paranoid
) so in the interim, since the 3M PPF was not available, I went to a sticker shop and got a carbon fiber sticker sheet cut and stuck on the rear tails. Was looking nice initially but as time passed the CF sheet started showing lots of bubbles and looked ugly.
But, the ugly duckling did what it was installed for - protect from scratches.
So when the 3M PPF was launched sometime back I promptly went to Auto Service in Blore and stripped the ugly duckling off my bike's rear tail panels and got the 3M ppf installed.
The CF stickering cost me 250 bucks for both sides whereas the 3M PPF cost me 1100/- for both sides. Expensive yes, but no glue, no mess and it is like installing a screen guard on your cell phone screen. Sticks without presence or need for any glue or soap solution and uses plain water and surface tension to stick and stay in place.
Time will tell how good this PPF is and how long lasting it is.

I don't think so that any people buying it for approx two years and it's still 2600kms. Even ninja service have bigger intervals
Then are you ???? Do you suggest that people should go head with that big price for second bikes, what's the re-sale for Ninja in India ?? Is it a hero or honda product that people will get good re-sale value ?? How many ninja's do you see on road?? merely few. It is not like people are not capable of buying it but don't want to put big amount in bikes, Very few people and passionate people will buy such high end bike, but not at that high price for second hand!Originally posted by trustvishwas View PostAre you an authority on second hand Ninja 250 pricing?
Every one likes to sell it's product for higher margin but it is sold by luck and market value only.
And yes one of my friend has a Black ninja 2010 model 9k kms done, bought it as second hand from Asansol kolkatta just 1.6 yrs old for 1.85 L good condition.
Have you seen at what price does R15 in good condition 2010 model goes to dealer ?? mine is quoted as 55k only 19400kms done regular serviced no dent or bend. new tyres and alloy. This price was quoted to me by KTM, Second hand dealer , and bajaj showrooms. There are many second hand R15 V2.0 for sale in mere 80k in KTM lot. they a dealer who purchase this and they asked me for any friends for that.
I don't know at what price would that dealer sell that bike but this approx amount was quoted by almost all second bike dealer only a difference of 5-8k only.Originally posted by trustvishwas View PostJust because you & your friend went to a dealer and asked its price, does not make it a standard price.

You yourself are saying that your friend purchased a 2010 ninja which has done 9k km at 1.85 lakh and you are now saying that similar 2010 ninja which has done 2600 km should cost 1.75 lakh.Originally posted by somen1984 View PostAnd yes one of my friend has a Black ninja 2010 model 9k kms done, bought it as second hand from Asansol kolkatta just 1.6 yrs old for 1.85 L good condition.

Ninja has zero resale market in India. No one would buy one unless he actually wants one. Anyone who wants to buy a R15 wouldn't actually buy a resale Ninja. because even though he may afford the purchase price, he may not afford spare part prices.
Normal rules of resale market do not apply to bikes like Ninja or those costing more. The potential customer base is very very small and in case of a distress sale, the seller may get extremely low price because of this very low customer base. However, this is a very rare case.Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

Hey Guys, I was looking at replacing the front tyre of the bike. Got some weird info from 2 of the dealers ( sai iyengar, Lalbagh and tyre junction, Jayanagar) Apparently they have stopped importing tyres (some issue with ISI marking), so there is no stock of sports deamon etc
1) Can someone tell me if this is the case at other dealers as well?
2) What are the alternative manufacturers (Indian brands) that have been tried
I also had a chat with Prasanna and looks like it takes a really long time to get the tyres sourced via bajaj!

This guy is an all round automobile lover. Has N250, an R15, ZMR and a HH Passion. Has a Honda City & an Innova too.. So Imagine... He just sold his R15 too, as he didnt have time to ride.

Mate! The bike was kept in a closed garage always when parked, can call it a showcase

I bought my ninja used... Paid 2.4l for an april 2011 model with 2900kms on the clock... you should pay a bit less than that, as your bike is a year older... 2l wouldn't be too bad I guess... But negotiate for the best possible price... Don't think it will go below 2...Originally posted by parry122 View PostFriends & Mods, please excuse the post.
This is being posted here coz, the very Ninja owners will be true advisors to my query.
I am cometmplating a used Ninja 250R, 2010, 2600 Kms run, scratchless.
What is the max i should pay, if the bike is all nice really.
