  1. Hi All,

    My friend Cheryl, Have2BeFree, is looking to move up to a newer machine. Her current ride is a 2005 Yamaha FZ6 with about 29k miles on it. She put on all but 4k of it. She has done a track day (Louden) and a few long trips (to and from KY) by herself. She'd like something with more wind protection and smoother on the highway.

    She has ridden a 2008 ZZR600, a 2004 VFR, and both of my ZX14s. While her dream bike is an F800ST or an NT700, due to no chain maintenance, non are in her price range at the moment.

    Anyone on the board (preferably NorthEast area) have a clean VFR or perhaps an F4i they're thinking about selling?

    Any recommendations on a bike for a shorter (5'3") rider would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

  2. Actually, despite your wasted time, you should be amused.

    He proves to you that he lacks knowledge of the bike. Also, he doesn't understand the value of time an money. He wasted "15 hours"? 5.5 one way = 11 hours round trip. Times that by 2 people is 22 hours. :icon_think:

    Despite all that was "wrong" with the bike, he still offers you half of what you wanted hoping you'd agree with his knowledge in offer to make the sale.

    You definitely got the lower part of the Craigslist bunch. People love to haggle. Hey, at least he took the time to come out. I do get a kick out of those who offer 1/3 to 1/2 of what you're asking... :icon_wink:

  3. I'll be picking one up myself in the next couple of weeks. I've settled on a 2009 leftover, black, ABS. There's a dealer within 100 miles of me that has this bike for $9399,

    I just need to man up and call them to negotiate the deal. I want it out the door for $10k.

    I know that Troy City Garage is selling an ABS C14 for $9899. Where are you getting yours from?
