Fiona Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 **SOLD** My friend Kate wants to sell her bike. She is a new rider, 2nd year... Last year she had a similar bike which she crashed in a sandy/gravel curve. She bought this bike early this season, had it serviced before riding... I think new tires, chain/sprocket, fluids... she rode it twice and went down in the exact same curve as last year. That was 2 months ago. She hasn't ridden it since. She called me yesterday and asked me to post it up for her because she's too gun shy to get back on the saddle She paid $4000 for it early this year and wants to just get rid of it so she has it priced to move fast at $2700. I can't confirm the condition since she's 650 miles away but if someone is near Fairfax and wants to go over and get a condition report or to check it out for themselves I'll get you in touch with her.

Peepa Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Great price. THis would make a good track bike. Its down on power from its 636 brother but it was made for Kawis race teams of the era so it has better suspension and cornering skills then the 636.

Just looking around for a track tool. Don't know if she's firm on the price but without having seen the bike I would hope she is... it's a darn good price from what I found doing a cursory search on the net of similar year/model.

She doesn't have it posted anywhere.... she enlisted my help to post it for her. I'm in the process of setting up several CL ads and I was going to post it on the other boards that I have frequented over the years.

I'll PM my info. You have all her info. She should be calling you very soon if she hasn't already to work out the details. She's very green to motorcycling and detailed questions about the bike as well as selling ... so don't hesitate to get ahold of me if she panics a bit about holding the bike or taking a deposit or whatever and I'll talk to her to clear it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John01XX Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 I hope you are able to finalize it in short order Hehe. Will be no problem to finalize in Short order with Brad!! Looks like I will have to come off some bucks myself somehow and claim partial ownership Maybe a pay raise from my boss to make it possible or even just pay me for the two lost days pay while attending NeXXt !! It is located very close to the AutoTrain in Lorton, VA. maybe it could be delivered to the train station and then picked up in Florida !

I hope it turns out to be as clean as it looks in the pics. I really wanted to snatch it up but just couldn't justify a bike with winter quickly approaching.

111lbRC51Rider Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Update: Talked to the uship driver this morning. He's in VA now (verified it on GPS tracking) but he's criss crossing the state a couple times for various pickups. Looks like the day for pickup will be Sat/Sun. I told him to step on it. I'm sure it will be as clean as it looks. Kate was great in getting me pics all over the bike and shots of the title/registration....etc. She was great to work with via such a long distance.
