I bought one of these brand new for 1100 USD. I maintained it very well, no accidents nothing.
I have registration in my name with my picture, could help transfer over to someone. How much is something like this worth. I think 700 is fair but almost too much as it is only 400 USD off from a brand new Wave A(or whatever low model they have now).
People want those 400-600$ scooters and they are years old with 3 different khmer owners. Do you reckon an expat out there would want a 3 year old scooter as above for 700-750? USD

I'm by no means an expert, but think that Honda's keep their value pretty well. 600-700 is probably fair I'd say.
If you want some comparison you could just look around some moto shops and see what a similar model goes for?
btw, when did you buy it? In early 2014?

How many km? I think it's worth $600 easy, maybe $700. However, I agree that the problem is that a lot of these Facebook group expats on short-term stays all want $300 Daelim beaters. Few are willing to splurge more than $500-600 on a scooter for some reason. Selling any type of "good" motorcycle, be it a scooter or a bigger bike, is a bit of a pain. Try to post it for $650 and see how it goes.

Yeah. Thanks. If all goes well, it will be for sale in 2-3 months. I think 25k. I'm only owner and I took care of it well.
My dirt bike might be up for sale but I have 2 people with dibs on it for my asking price. Gotta replate it.. 2k$

I think the "motorbike educated" expat would find it valuable, but it took me about a month wanting to buy a motorbike before I felt like I knew enough to understand and decide on what I wanted, which was a late-model, expat-owned Honda Wave (or equivalent). My budget was the same as what would be the cash replacement for my rental, $800. Buying a sub $400 motorbike just seemed like asking for trouble.
Knowing I would be in PP at least 1 year, I also wanted something capable of 2-3 hour road journeys without fuss or worry. After another month of losing, I found near-exactly what I wanted (2014 Honda Wave RS with 15,000 km)
When selling, I'd make it very clear that you have something well beyond the typical used moto in Cambodia, and perhaps provide a little "education" as to why. My biggest put-off with buying a used motorbike here were the terrible ads, with limited information and photos. I don't understand why sellers wouldn't automatically post info like model year, make, mileage, papers yes/no, and maintenance history. That stuff gives me confidence. I also felt safer buying from an expat.
I've also read that Honda Waves hold their value. You could also sell directly to a used dealer, mechanic or repair shop.
