What do you think a fair price would be? I would love to get 3 for it, for the time and attention to some details it has and some of the customization on it. But real life all dictates something else.
Just curious on what anyone thinks I could get?

Looks like a nice bike. I would think 3k would be a reasonable starting price. That being said, I bought my 03 two years ago for 3,500 with only 5k miles so you may need to come down a bit. Maybe list it for $2,800 obo?? Or just keep it. A few years from now, you're gonna miss it. ;-)

Looks like a nice clean ride, unfortunately they just don't hold their value. I'd say $2000 or less is what you're realistically looking at....If you list it for $2500 there's a chance someone might come offer $2000 or so.
I bought my 98 for $3400 with 16k miles, and the motor was full of Moriwaki parts and had the moriwaki Ti exhaust. Original owner super clean. Not really apples to apples but for close to $3000 someone could probably find a really nice low mileage unit that's newer.

I think any bike, in good nick, over 750cc should be worth $3000 if you consider what new bikes cost now days. That is if you are close to a major market city. If you are out in the sticks I would think you would have to take less just because your list of potential buyers is so much smaller.

Well I'd certainly also list it on CL to start. Consider ebay also with a higher reserve since you'll get nationwide exposure and may sell it via that exposure without selling it "through ebay" and hence just pay the listing fee.
My 2 cents, after selling several of these bikes in slightly varying conditions in the past...If you detail the bike and take some nicer outdoor daytime pics of it you should be able to get around $2500 for it, at least around here in FL anyway. You may be able to get a few bucks more if you don't mind sitting on it for a little while but I don't think alot more. I think $3500 is dreaming...again at least around here.

Have all gear as well and my wife's gear 2 speed and strength helmets 3 speed and strength jackets one women's and 2 men's one full mesh other textile 2 pair of gloves. 3000 for everything!!!

If you want to get the absolute most money, sell everything separately.
If you want to get even more money than that, take your original stuff and put it back on, and sell the aftermarket stuff separately.
If you want to get so much money you can't even believe it, part the whole thing out and sell it piece by piece.
