Default Motard pricing

What is everyone thinking about the big price drop for motards? 90% of the ones i see are $4500 and up. I'm really waiting to find one in the $3k range, nothing new, a little beat up, I know what to expect for that price. but so far even the beat to all hell ones are over $4k.

What are you looking for (street legal, dirtbike turned motard, factory street legal racer, mild street ride)? The type will affect the price.

I wouldn't take less than $4.5k for mine! Parts alone cost that, even if the MX base machine is worth $2-3K.

Conversions cost alot more. And are kinda worth it considering what bike and parts were used. Converted MX bikes are generally better and faster than their "original" supermoto counterparts if the manufacturer even produced one.
