look how CLEAN this bike is (JK)
http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/mcy/3805207114.html
such bullshit. These are the sellers you stay away from. A dude on ZX6R.com knows the bike and called him out, but this guy still has the add up. You cant call a bike with a dented frame like that "clean" Keep a look out for these types of sellers yo.

Dented frame, is that visible in the first pic on the brake side of the bike? Yikes, the bike looks hawttttt in the pictures. He has a Q2 in the rear, but that's not a Q2 in the front, right? My ZX6R had worn Q2's when I bought it but I immediately got new tires on them so I don't remember if that's what the tread of a Q2 front look like.

Ha. On top of the dented frame, why would it need a new rear tire in 3300 miles if it's been BABIED?

That's a pretty big dent, looks like it came from the handlebars? I wonder if those are OEM plastics or chinese knock offs for a quick fix from a crash. Would a dented frame actually affect the performance of the bike in any way though?

I'd worry about stress fractures and loading fatigue at that spot. The bike itself might perform fine, but the stresses at that point on the frame would be different than it was designed for, so you may or may not be in risk of further failure down the road.
On top of that, the frames are made to very tight tolerances, so a dent has the potential to throw the whole frame out of alignment. |

Not to mention the intake for the bike runs through the frame....so being dented could affect airflow to the engine.
