There ya go.......seems you have all the answers to your own questions

So why ask

adamlewis06,

RojerLockless was just giving his opinion, which is pretty spot on. If you think he's making fun of the age of your bike... well... I'd say grow some thicker skin.

As far as CBRClassic, he was giving you a warning and giving suggestions on how you may want to act here. I would take his advice.

Maybe i can better explain "why"....
Your post is very close to a 'for sale' ad, and this is the exact way that someone would try to get around the "100 post minimum" rule.
They will start a "what's this worth" or "thinking of selling this" thread... in order to bait buyers. It happens....and mods are trying to keep this from happening.
What I don't understand is why you didn't just look up the price of a new one, and then work from there. It's not that difficult.
