you can only get decent deals from private sellers. Dealerships (at least around here) still have overpriced bikes by a long shot.

Only time I've gone to a dealer for a bike since 1980 was for the 2006 YZ-F.

DEALERS - banghead 99% of the time

the difference over here is less marked, with the FZR600R (your YZF) only having a couple more horses, this being due to the 34mm carbs, so a quick carb swap and us chaps from Blighty are soprted ;)

Im glad I'm not the only one who thinks this is a BAD idea. Mark what the hell are you thinkin?? The only thing the yzf is good for is the motor and brakes and swingarm/rim. A yzf over an fzr(and your fzr at that!)..shame on you! :no

I took it off CL. I plan to start the Swinger Swap tomorrow getting it up on the lift and taking her cloths off. I hit a snag on my wheel and cush drive. My paypal was screwed up and I sent the person a MO and she said she just got it yesterday and I know that is BS. Its been 14 days and she just got it? Whatever. I left her an email and a phone message and I was polite. Oh, she also said that she was going to deposit it and when it cleared she would send my stuff. banghead
