    Hey guys!

    I was referred here by someone on advrider as an excellent source of info on all things WR360.

    I do not have the bike yet, but a friend of a friend has one for sale. It's set up for the street, year 2000, and he's asking $3000 for it. Also, it's apparently mint. Thoughts? I'm beginning to get the idea that this is a really high asking price, and that maybe $2k would be more reasonable?

    Also, are there any common issues with these bikes? I know they're pretty rare (at least near me in the US) so I'm not sure how easy/cheap it would be to acquire parts in the future.

    I bought a pretty clean 99 for 2300
    no boot wear on the frame or cases, plastic was not perfect but really nice overall

    I like my '00 360 a lot but I don't think I would pay more than $2k for one unless it had a documented history of being professionally maintained and it had a complete rebuild recently or it had low hours. Even then it would be a stretch imo.

    As far as parts go I think most stuff is still available, but you might want to call Hall's or Bill's and ask them.

    $3000 would be a good down payment on a new 300

    $3k...depends on how long you want to keep it and whether it's already got the goods on it like a gnarly pipe, sorted forks, clean plastics, electric work, when was it's last rebuild ect.

    As much as l love my 360, l wouldn't buy one for 3k unless there was nothing to spend on and that includes a hydro clutch!!!

    I think it's way to much money unless as the others said it has real low hours,really clean or has a ton of mods to it. If you want one bad enough I would look around first and compare prices. JMO but I think you can do better if you take the time to shop.

    Nah I didn't get it.

    I'm not sure how serious he is about selling, I was only mildly interested in the bike anyway.

    I need to clear out a couple "retired" projects before I buy another bike, haha

    I appreciate the appraisals; I wouldn't have thought it was worth $3k, but neither did I think it would be worth 1500-2000 max.

    never let emotions occlude a sale/ buy, if it is in near perfect shape over 2 would be fine, but 3 not unless it is in the crate
