SoloTSi97 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) I've been trying to talk myself into selling this for a couple of years now, ever since I bought an FJR in '17 and started riding it much more frequently. I do most of my riding commuting to/from work and the FJR is just more convenient for that. As such, this bike has mostly just sat for the last few years. I've started and ridden it a few times each season (enough to run a tank of gas through it at least) but mostly because I felt I needed to. So, I think it's time to let it go. 2000 XX, OEM Candy Phoenix Blue 50,603km on the odometer (31,443 miles). I purchased in 2014 with 28,123 miles. Oil changes & chain lube annually even though I haven't put many miles on it. Originally sold in Australia, the bike was imported to the US two owners ago (or so I was told). So, Candy Phoenix Blue is the correct color for this bike. As an AU bike, the odometer reads in km, as does the original speedo. I put overlay gauge faces on it that read in mph, but the original faces are underneath and unaltered. Modifications/upgrades: Forks were rebuilt & resprung for a 220lb rider by Reuben @ 35 Motorsports Rear shock is an adjustable CBR900RR unit also rebuilt by 35 Motorsports for a 220lb rider Stebel Nautilus replacement horn (loud) Shorai LiFe battery Corbin Gunfighter & Lady seat finished in carbon fiber with blue piping (removable backrest comes with the bike) Zero Gravity Sport Touring windscreen in dark smoke. I have a couple of other windscreens that come with the bike. Jaws Crash Shrooms frame sliders (no fairing modifications necessary) Helibar bar risers RAM ball mount for phone/GPS/whatever 18-tooth front sprocket There are some blemishes here and there, most of which were poorly touched up by the previous owner. You don't see them from a distance but you'll see them up close. I've attached a few photos here but you'll find more in this album: https://photos.app.goo.gl/BE65mpdQubsaw1ze8 I'm somewhat torn on selling and frankly not in a hurry, but I also haven't been watching the market for XXs. So, if I'm way off base with pricing this isn't an "I know what I have" situation, it's just me not knowing what it's worth. Let me know. Worst case, I decide it's not worth selling and hold onto it.

JoWhee Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Nice looking bike, I wonder if the Aussie blue was different than the 99-00 Canadian blue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you recall, you helped me locate some plastics for it a few years ago through a Canadian dealership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember that, but I thought they were the same colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I meant "it's not" in response to your question "are they different?" 🙃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
