Default Trying to buy a 2nd F2

Wish me luck fellas!

It's a 1991, white/red and looks to be from the cell phone pics anyway...in really good condition.

Original paint, original graphics. About 19,000 miles.

The owner is willing to trade my VFR 750F for his bike!

The problem is his bike is on another island. We'll have to ship the bikes and the titles.

The only worry I have is strapping down the bike properly for shipment. Has anyone done this before?

The bike looks exactly like this and I think it's 100% stock, even the exhaust is stock and the turn signals:

Oh boy, I hope this goes through.

Thank you FN!

The seat has a tear and the carbs need some work. The rear tire may need replacing. And some small scratches from being downed on both sides. Hopefully it is as good as it sounds.

I know i'm taking a chance trading a bike for a bike I've never seen or ridden with my own eyes. But I am willing to take the chance, the owner seems trustworthy. We will see!

Thank you BlkF2

I agree, it's harder and harder to find original paint f2's, at least it is in Hawaii.

Just hope it looks as good in person as the cell phone pics

Undercoverbrother,

Thanks and good luck to your 3rd f2

What incredible bikes.

And I let the seller know in an off-hand way, via email that I'm a cop.

I trust him anyway. We'll see

Update: I'm shipping my VFR to the neighbor island tomorrow

I gotta buy a motorcycle pallet and then some tie down straps and get everything to the dock before 3pm.

He's gonna put mine in an enclosed unit, I tried to do the same but they don't have any now.

The shipper ran out and I'd have to wait a week before then...the seller wants my VFR asap before he goes to the mainland. I think he's excited to ride it or sell it.

Wish me luck fellas!
