Thanks for the post! I posted in the Classifieds area. Unfortunately i hate pulling the "poor college kid" card but that's the case. I have a budget of $3000 and would like a 2000-2003 F4i. Beautiful bikes! Can someone explain to me why they're selling for so much? three months ago they were a lot cheaper, and i know i should've bought one then, but for some reason i decided to wait. I'm in no hurry, in fact i kind of enjoy shopping checking prices and seeing what people have posted.

 

Riding weather + Income tax returns = inflated prices.
Winter weather + Prepping to pay income tax = bargain prices

You might try using crazedlist.org to shop multiple cities on CL

 

^^ I'm in the same boat as far as crazy prices. I already have 2 good running bikes, so I'm in no hurry for an F4i... but yeah, the prices are getting stupid with the nice weather etc.
Although that blue one isn't priced bad at all. I'm just not looking to drop that kind of cash right now, either....

 

Geezus. I just picked up an '07 600RR form PA for $6k with 3k miles. 5k is nuts for an F4i.
