  1. Nobody asked for your opinion, and this isn't the pub. People come here to sell and buy stuff, not express irrelevant opinions on what they think an item is worth- except you, apparently. Don't you realize you could potentially be costing a fellow board member a sale with your bullshit?.

    Nobody asked for your opinion either.

    No one has ever posted irrelevant opinions in the FS section......except me, apparently? Do you smoke crack while reading books about unicorns? Gimme a fucking break. Meanwhile the thread keeps getting bumped to the top. If anything shouldn't stand in the way of a good deal, it's irrelevant opinions.

  2. BarryG, if everyone could find that good of a deal, then you'd have nothing to brag about and might have shut the fuck up about it after all this time.

    Why do you insist on using the great deal you got as a tool to shit on other people's sales?

    Sorry.....thought it was freedom of speech in the forum. Don't get your vaginas all knotted up. Just thought with the crappy economy and later models with 1/10 the mileage and no cosmetic imperfections going for $2K more than he's asking......maybe he should just keep it.

    And I'll be honest, I actually paid $8700 for my '98.......so fuck off.

  3. I used a micro torch on each one and they came out like butter...

    Makes the Connie14 feel just like the XX, with more torque and shaft drive..

    Can't wait to start mine again...friggin Kawasaki!!!!

    Did it seriously make a noticeable difference for you removing them?

    I rode an '06 ZX-14 with flies removed. Total beast power down low (and everywhere else) with the flies removed. I'm sure the C14 would yield similar results.

  4. Would trade the Corbin+back rest for $300 + your good condition stocker...

    Sell it all for $4400

    Would also sell the Scorpions separately.

    Looked at prices quickly and see they sell new between $560-650

    before shipping.

    What's a fair price?

    $19.95 each?

  5. Nice XX! Why not just keep it and ride it on the weekends? I can't imagine not commuting on mine but traffic is light on my 18 mi commute.

    Barry,

    That's the same question I posed to my wife. She said absolutely not. She thinks that I can get into an accident as easily on back roads as on major roads. Not true, but I can't convince her otherwise. In another life I used to race amateur motocross, and have done lap time at Beaver Valley Raceway in Pittsburgh on other sportbikes, but she doesn't believe me concerning traffic. I think the real reason is that we recently bought a used Audi TT for her, so she is using my close calls as an excuse to bargain for the garage space. She is letting me drive the TT so I can't complain too much. It is just not fair, but I need to keep peace in the family.

    Fair enough I guess if you're fine with the decision. I've just never been exposed to a wife/g/f that had any say in my riding. Been with the same girl since I started riding in '03. She doesn't ride with me anymore and it's not really her thing. But if she told me my bikes must go.....her opinion would be vetoed immediately without further discussion. She knows I enjoy my bikes and my commute and stays out of my business. I can't imagine giving up riding due to a spouse/girlfriend's demands.

  6. Is this your 7th or 8th bird? Whatcha gettin now?

    I think it's his 12th. And he's not selling it to fix his car. He's got his eye on a MINT '03 Nighthawk 750.
