What would be a good price for a 2012 carpenterized rocket?

LAS VEGAS DAVE said:
Since I already own one Rocket and a couple of V8 bikes I haven't been able to convince myself of a good reason to buy that bike. If I got a really great deal on it then that could be my reason. As it stands my only reason would be it would be fun and fast which seems to be a good reason one moment and not good enough another. I made a fair offer but he has a lot in it and of course he would like to take as little a loss as possible so I think he will hold it for awhile. There is a 2007 Carpenter Rocket for about 12000 listed that looks real nice but it is nine years old. Is there anything not so good about a 2007?

The only issue with bikes from 08 and before, was a part of the shift mechanism. But I'm sure when Carpenter puts in the heavier clutch, they change that plunger too.

Hey Art, do they upgrade the shift piece?
 
What's he got 19 or 22K into it?
Bike is 5 years old.
Me thinks 17K is optimistic.
Good fortune on the sale.

I offered 15500 for it but never heard back. I don't think he really wants or needs to sell it.
 
With all the used bikes for sell right now he would be lucky to get 15.5. Here in Oklahoma the oil situation is taking its toll. Boats and bikes are for sell everywhere. Some are priced to sell real quick. :(:(:(
 
He dont need to sell it but he said he never rides it since he works so much, i told him to keep it and make time to live his life,
