ohio is kind of far.. not only that but i dont want to break it in on the highway... and dont wanna trailer all the way up there



im still eyeing the 00-03 R1's... any preference?  Are the older bodystyle better? I like the look of the 02-03... they're all just $$$$$


I've had three people tell me the R1's are more comfy than the svs... and more reliable

cheesy

also... that 04 in blue..  $7000... why so cheap? Where is that? Steve said he could do like 7700-7800ish.. cause he PAYS 7300 for the bike.. so he's gotta make a buck somehow

pandy

Just cuz he SAYS he pays 7300 doesn't make it true! ;)

Ok that's possibly true ... but steve is a rather straight forward guy ... I go there all the time and he pretty much knows I'd never buy a bike from him ... cos I wont buy new ... I help him sell old and new bikes just by virtue of educating the buyer ... and comming from a non sales guy it carries more weight ... heck I sold that blue 04GS almost single handedly ... 2 mins of listening to me about my 89 and he was done ... great I want this ... Now maybe dealers have some sorta hold back money types, so they get it end of year ?? ... and OK I thought 6700 in OH was OTD ... Not ?? ... Blazinjr ???
Yea and the parts sales guys were morons too ... but they have been bashed in the head so much by moi ... they usually stand back and let me do my thing. They've figured out I am usually right, and if not I own up to my mistakes and dont try to pass it back on to them ...
So you think 7K is reasonable on the 04 ... want a pic ?? ... I can get one tommorow ... they are like 5 mins away ...
And no B12 ...  :dunno:  ... OK ... bwwwwaaaa .... bwwwwaaaa ... OK.
BTW Stk number for it is 106388, the 03 silver is 102381.
Cool.

I am going with the SV but damn if the RC51 was more comfy, lighter, and $3,000 cheaper I would jump all over it.

IMO the red 05 ZX-6R is one sexah mofo.



The local dealer got tired of me coming in every week and sitting on it for 20 minutes so they sold my bike.  :(

I'm also pretty hot for Ducati 749s but afraid of the up keep costs on the Ducs I keep reading about.

Who said the SV is not well built? :dunno:   Seems pretty reliable from all I have researched.  The R1 will almost definately have a higher insurance rate I would think so how would that offset the cost?  I'm sure there are some 2005 SV1000S out there for 7,000$ out the door.  Someone on SVRider got an 05 with lowers for that OTD brand new.  Good luck whatever you decide :cheers:
