Default Back again!

Hello all,

I am not necessarily new, but I have been gone for quite sometime. So I figured I better give an introduction. I used to be on here some time ago. I lived in Phoenix, AZ at the time and rode a 2007 CBR600RR. (blue and silver) I will try to dig up some pics sooner or later. I later got stationed in northern Japan, so bye bye bike.

Now I am a free man, and out of the military. I am now currently residing in my home town in So Cal. I will be heading back to school, and thought I need a "gas saver." So I began looking at picking up a scooter, then the itch hit me. I WANT ANOTHER BIKE! But honestly I am appalled at the prices. It is absolutely ridiculous. I purchased my BRAND NEW cbr600rr from the dealer for $8800 OTD. That was even delivered on a trailer, since I had nobody to drive me to the dealer that day. But now I am searching for a used bike and they want damn near what I payed 5ish years ago for one right out of the create.

So any suggestions as to where to pick up a quality, and fairly priced CBR at will be greatly appreciated.

Enough of me rambling on.... Glad to be back with you guys!

Cheers!

Welcome back Martin.

Be sure to check CL. You gotta pounce on the deals when you see them though. Hope you're able to find something asap.

Thanks guys!

I have been searching CL, even at work sometimes on my phone haha, but not really seeing anything worth picking up at the moment. I know it takes sometime to find the right deal, but I am getting discouraged too easily right now.

Welcome back! Your old RR was sweet bro... I have red that bike prices in Cali are crazy high... Maybe you would be better off picking it up in a neighboring rate and riding it back?
