Joining the ranks of the bike-owners...
If all goes well (basically if he does in fact hold the bike until we can get to a bank for the cash tomorrow) I will be the proud owner of a 93 Ninja 600R with only 7,600 miles on it. From the ad: "Bike is in excellent shape, was never down and has a good, clean title. Only aftermarket parts on the bike are a full vane and hines exhaust from the headers back. Bike was my sisters so you know it wasnt beat. CLEAN TITLE!. Bike starts right up and needs nothing at all, Currently its on the road and inspected so if your interested in it you could come uup hear it run and test ride it.". This bike was so clean you could eat off of it! It has electronic adjustable shocks? I forget the name on it... We started it and listened to it run and it sounded SOOOOOO good! No body or frame issues and low mileage. I am psyched! Now I have to sign up for my MSF...

That's a good-looking bike. I can't see an old 600 having an electronic shock though How much are they asking? Did you bring an experienced rider who knows how to spot problems with a bike?

Yes, Dutch has been riding over 20 years and checked it out. It was $2k and he was perfectly fine with that price due to the immaculate condition of the bike. New chain also, and they had the work done at a reputable shop and have all the reciepts. The picture doesn't do it justice. This bike is a beauty. We thought it was rather odd to have the electronic shock as well, but the bike rides great with it. Now we need to download a manual on how to adjust it, because the girl misplaced it. These folks live within 2 miles of us, so if there's any questions I can go ask.
I'll upload pics tomorrow night after we get it home. |

Angee!! That is great and those are neat bikes. The electronic thing may be Anti-dive on the forks that the ad was meaning.
Congratulations on the find and your joining the ranks of the crazies.. |
