Thanks guys for the great input!! It will be probally next weekend before I will have the time/funds to get a bike. Also found a red/black 929 w/16k for $3500 exc and similar mods as the erion. I really like red/black cbr's, white just dont turn me on unless its the erion (sorry just my .02)

I really want to get a bike now before summer....if i decide I dont like it, I can sell it for 2k more in the summer.

 

The guy with the 2 bikes in pieces said he would come down to 3000......I might pick them up today.

 

Either way buy what you want. I would just make sure the non title 954 has a paper trail you can fall back on. I would also have the numbers ran at the local PD just to make sure your not receiving stolen property. you can never be to safe with stuff like that and if the guy won't let ya run the numbers then walk away.

also remember it would be tougher to sell a 929 with a 954 motor and expect to get your money back. If I was looking for another bike and ran across that set up I would pass on it right away. but IM not a noob either to bikes.

 

let us know what you get

 

I want the best deal.......still kinda looking, havnt found time to do the 2 hour drive to the erion.......I found a nice 02 R6, Im not biased on brands.....are they any good?

Is insurance much cheaper on a 600 than a 929?

 

ins will be cheaper on a 600 but your also giving up alot of performance IMO check out the 929 for sale on the main page 4000 for a 2000 929 with 2,900 miles comes with 2 stands, batteries, and some other stuff 4k for a bike that clean is a great deal check it out not sure where you are but it's worth checking out goodluck hope you find somethin you like

 

I got several insurance quotes on the 2003 r6 and 929. Its gonna be 600-1200 on just liability depending on options.

full coverage is around $2800. Big ripoff I could pay for a bike in 3 years of insurance payments.


The 929 is actually a tad cheaper for liability insurance because it is a older bike. The CC dosent affect that much cuz its not over 1000cc

I dunno guys.


BTW that 929 in forsale forum is way too far away. Im in ohio.

 

Well guys, I got a bike. Sadly its not a erion. Maybe someday I will get one if i outgrow this one.

got a 2003 yamaha R6......Picked it up this morning. dropped it off at storage, I havnt even road it yet its too dang cold 35F :thumbdown and wont ride it till its nice and warm out. My buddy test drove it for me to make sure everything is ok. He said its got *****, more than his brothers 05 cbr600. It sounds DANG good with the full exhaust.


thanks for your input.

 

It's a nice bike! Sadly it's not the CBR, but that's alright. I think I can give you a pass on this one! Enjoy it and be safe!!

 

little update, my buddy saw the light and is getting a 2005 cbr600.......now I got another person to cruise with!

Spring is around the corner, can't wait. I'm very sick of the snow[:@]
