Hey, I saw "bike A" today...he re-listed for 4999 (I think you said originally he had it for higher?), and is unwilling to go below. Oh well. Happy for you tho! Enjoy your bike! Hopefully I'll get one soon.

Wow isteve...bold to come out and be the contrarian! Thanks again everyone for the awesome feedback. I was going to go see it tomorrow, but I think I'm going to call and cancel. I might go see and get all emotional about it. To me seems like if he will take 4500 for it I would be happy...

Sorry, was unclear on that. He said because there are only 700 miles, the tires are new, and that I should get a good 5000 miles on them. He mentioned it would take $600 or so to get new tires, so that's something to consider when I see other bikes for sale that have 4K+ miles on it.

Hi everyone, Thanks for the quick replies. The only add-on were frame sliders. He bought a 4-year extended warranty, good until July 2012. (so only about a year left). The 600 mile service hasn't been done yet (is that about $200-$300?) He knows KBB value, but is keeping his price...

Hi everyone, There is a gentleman nearby selling a 2008 with less than 700 miles. CL listed for $5999. Sounds like he used to ride a lot, but was in an accident with another bike recently that caused him not to want to ride anymore. 600 mile service not done yet. He says otherwise...

Hi all, I'm new to the forum, but am in "far" east bay (Stockton). I'm trying to get a FZ6...impatiently looking. I saw one on Craigslist, the guy has a raven 2008 with under 6000 miles. It was downed once by the first owner (he is second). I would post the link but it expired already...

Hi everyone, Thanks so much for all the quick replies! Definitely very useful. I think if I can get a decent deal on a new 2009 I will definitely do that (the dealers here don't have any brand new ones after 2009, that was the last year they made them, correct?). I plan to use it mainly...

Hi everyone, I'm new to riding, took the MSF course and loved it as I expected I would, got my M1, and now am in the market for a ride. After spending a number of hours in shops sitting on different bikes, and reading everything in this awesome forum, I've decided I definitely want a FZ6...
