Yeah, I agree. There are specific variants that are more desirable, without a doubt. I would be happy if it fetched the $6k-$7K range, but, to negotiate against myself, I think that would be the high range of its value, to be honest.

Yeah, that is the ballpark I was kind of thinking, $6K-$7K max. I’d probably take a tinge less, just to have someone come and pick the thing up, versus dealing with the back and forth that Bring a Trailer will inevitably bring…That’s what worries me about Bring a Trailer, is my dad’s Falcone only ever got up to $7,100, which, thank God I had a reserve on that, because that was wayyy off the mark, in my opinion!

I had definitely considered keeping it, but I have a bad back, and, though it’s not an overly aggressive riding position, it’s still too aggressive for my back. I rode it a few miles, trying to fall in love with it, and if my back could handle it, I’d absolutely keep it!

Oh yeah, it has a new battery, as well.

Hi there. New to the forum! Long story, but I’ll try to keep it short. My father passed away recently, and I am attempting to sell a 2004 Ballabio, for my mom. The reason I bring that up, is that is the reason it has such low miles. He was in poor health for many years, and just wasn’t able to ride it. My auction is going live on Bring a Trailer, 2:40 pm Central time US, today, and they kind of pushed me into ‘No Reserve’. But…I had just tried his 1953 Falcone on Bring a Trailer, and I wasn’t happy with the result. The high bid was only $7,100, and didn’t come close to my reserve. That being said, I’m getting nervous about this auction, that someone will get it for pennies on the dollar of what it’s worth, without having a reserve. Does anyone want to make me an offer, before this thing goes live? I have a number in mind. Once the auction goes live, I’ll pull this post down, because I guess I’m a good guy, and will follow their policy, and go through with the auction. It’s in pretty immaculate condition, save a few tiny rock chips, some fine scratches on the exhaust, and a small scratch on the front fender. It was kept in an unfinished, walkout basement. It’s located in MN.
