i just got back from looking at it. the damage is not bad a few scrapes and crack around turn signal. the only thing that i am worried about is the the peg is broken in half and the shifter is bent in making it hard to shift it up. how easy are these to replace? the price seems high at 4500 but i never see these around here so i dont know when i am going to find another. what do you think?

where is around here? i would pay $4500 if it was fixed.. if you pay someone to fix it expect $1000 to get her back to newish. $500 do it yourself.

dont be trigger happy and say i dont know when i will find another.

there are plenty.. where do you live.. i will find you one in 30min.

Wave $4100 in his face and see if he takes it, then fix it yourself. Does it need tires too?

You should take some pics and post them...

i live in the pittsuburgh area zip is 15116.

well i would not fix it all up just the shifter and peg.

where are you going to look to find one? i looked on craigslist, cycletrader. there seems to be no other good used bike sites o and ebay motors.

Lots of good 600 RR's for sale on 600rr.net and superbikes.net also.

Bargain News? There's tons of places to look...especially this time of year.

PM shoortbuss..he lives near Pitt, maybe he can help you out.

And Okie...I was willing to pay a little more for my Blue Devil because it came with Two Bros CF exhaust slip-on, Vortex adj. rear sets, Corbin seat, solo cowl and Scotts steering stabilizer, plus I was in love with it the moment I saw it...it really is a gorgeous bike...I love the blue.

To me the price seems a bit high with that damage. I think you can fine a cleaner one for near that prices.

Dude, you have to look around. Your bike is not just gonna jump out from no where, I had to drive 2 hours each way to get my bike...be patient.

There's tons of nice bikes around Philly if I remember correctly, cause I looked thru and contacted people from Boston to DC and as far West as Philly when I was bike shopping...

You want a project...check out this one...lol
http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/mcy/604015327.html

These took about 5 mins to find:

http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/mcy/608306516.html

Whatever you do, don't get anything older than a 2001 F4i, because they aren't fuel injected.
