Ive got a budget of 7800ish for a bike. This includes taxes, registration, ect. What do 4i's usually run?
Im really upset that everyone knows where the good deals are and I dont. Everyone is selling for MSRP+ here in St. Louis. What the hell?

DO NOT PAY MSRP($8999)- another dealer in Chattanooga tried that crap with me, so I went downtown to the other dealer saved $1416 with no questions asked. I say this so much in the forum, I should go work there! Good place though.

That bike with that many miles alone isn't worth 6 let alone all the other crap thats wrong with it.
As for the front tire....It might be inflated too much or it had a puncture and he inflated it. Cause when i got a screw in my tire i inflated it to 40psi(way too much) and i had to muscle the bike in the turns.

1) Needs rear tire.
2) Front tire? I dont know, but when I leaned to turn the handlebars were hard to keep strait. I noticed that the middle portion of the front tire was risen. Is this what made the handelbars turn as I leaned?
3) Missing front turn signals and rear signals with licence plate bracket...How much would that stuff be?
4)When blipping the throttle under load there was a squeeking noise. Is the squeeking ormal?
5)It warmed to 226* Is that temp normal?
6) The linkage from the shifter to the tranny seemed to pivot a lot. Normal?
2. you say the front tire was bubled out on the centre - this indicates that it has come down hard from wheelies on several ocasions (look @ the fork seals i bet their wet with oil)
3. might have been droped if its missing a front turn signal.
4. never heard anyone mention athe squeaking nois you speek of, sounds abnormal.
5. this is normal if you are in trafic, stopped for a pirod of time or riding in first or 2nd gear for a while.
6. i dont know what you mean by "pivot" but it should rotate a bit on the top and bottom bearings.
hope this helps... sounds like this bike has been abused.
