Hello, first post here. I have some questions about a 07' FZ-6 im looking at. I am looking at trading a ZR2 Chevy Blazer for it. I was going to try to sell it and hopefully get 4k for it, so that gives you an idea of how much i will be giving up to get it.
Here is the background on the bike, and my concerns. It is an 07' model 4,700 miles on it. First owner worked at a yamaha bike shop, the person who has it now is the second owner. He had an accident on it before winter. Someone pulled out in front of him on a paved back road, he hit the brakes and a pothole while braking. That caused him to go down on the right side. It slid awhile and then flipped over to the left for a couple of feet. He says he has replaced everything that was damaged except the front of the faring by the headlight, and the part that concerns me some scratches on the right side of the motor. He said it doesnt leak any oil or anything, and he has put 600 trouble free miles on it since then.
Should this be a bike im interested in? Im looking to trade rather than sell my Blazer because it is usually a pain in the butt to try and sell a 4x4 when gas prices are so high. So what do you fellas think, what are some things i should look at when i go see it? Thanks for any help you give me.
