My point is it's worth $900 as it stands.

And don't ask the guy to drop the price. Haggle. You offer a price lower than you're willing to settle for. He counters. Back and forth until you agree. And bring cash when you make an offer, because a quick sale is good motivation to lower the price some.

Sounds good to me. I just bought another engine for my 06 600RR to build a Supersport motor, so I'll have a crate ready to ship it out in.
