zx9r

there's a 2002 zx9r with 41k miles on it, in running condition. Cosmetically, it's a little rough. What does the brain trust think would be a good price for it. I'm curious, thinking about buying myself an early Christmas present!

I think you'd be highly let down by that bike.

But 3k tops

why's that?

op- post some pics, mod list, etc...

[lowthreeohz]

Because he has a new 750 that is an all around better bike.

[dsrtuckteezy]

oh, well yea, it's not going to compare to your gsxr.

solid bike though, i'd roll one.

kbb says $3500 for an excellent condition retail value and $2500 for a good condition trade-in value.

if it's cosmetically rough, we'll assume it's in fair condition and more along the lines of 2k, maybe up to 2500. that's a realistic price, but everybody always wants more.

maybe it has some good parts though. post more details. what are your plans for this bike?

[O.C.]

$2K-$2.5 is fair depending on if it has exhaust/jet kit etc, they are comfortable bikes I will give them that.

god bless.

Matt just cause its there.. Don't. Get you a slightly newer fi bike and throw some sharkskinz on it and hit the road courses.

You know me too well. Lol, I was considering getting it just to screw around on. I've ridden it, the carbs need some work.

2k seems about right to me. There are no mods that I know of. Other than different handlebars, which are tweaked, and maybe a couple of cosmetic odds and ends.

My plans.....I'm thinking something to wheelie on that I won't absolutely hate myself if I crash it.

These are the dangers of working next door to a pawnshop! They get bikes in, and when the owner doesn't pay the lien/loan off, they go up for sale and I get to look at it everyday.

I know I could get a newer one for similar money, but this one is right there, haha. I'll wave it off, unless they come tell me they'll take a stupid low amount. They also have an old Harley over there, I'm thinking its a Dyna of some sort. Not sure.

if thats your plan, i'd pass. you'll hate yourself when you have to pull those carbs and try to hump them back on.

find a f4i. you can get em cheap, wreck em, pick em back up and ride on lol

CBR600? Hmm....you may be a genius sir. Looking now. Any good years to recommend?

[dsrtuckteezy]

the cheapest you can find. theyre relatively the same through 01-06. theyre tanks.

370 lb. dry weight, 100+ hp, +5 rear = profit
