i want that yamaha

a friend has a 450 in good condition (forgot the year), but without legal papers, and he was offering to sell for about 5000~6000 buks. ya, even second hand bikes here are still rather expensive.

if it had the legal papers to be able to ride it on the roads, i would have probably bought it already...

but its totally insane to get papers made without spending a fortune, on imported bikes! they make you pay a 100% tax on the bike as if it were brand new, to legalize an imported bike. so even if this bike were from 2004 or something, they would charge me the same amount that it would have cost to buy the bike new in 2004 as tax, on top of the 5~6 grand for the bike itself.

seriously no brains in that government department...

Yeah, motos in the corner are fair weather rides, they are winterized during the winter months.. they will come back to life soon.

Or if anyone is interested in a 2004 Yamaha WR450F with dirt and supermotard wheels for $3500, PM me for details:

Because they can.
It's a FI 250cc that has spoked supermotard wheels and suspension to match. IMO, way overpriced.

Cool

Surfing through local Craigslist, found this 85 K100 w/22k mi. for sale at good price. Showed up to take a look, seller was tired of people calling but never show up. Battery is dead, jumped it with a car battery and fired it up. Talked some more and made a deal under $2k. Bike came with side cases, spare ECU, hall effect sensor, windshield and aftermarket rear shock.





For a 25 year old bike, it's not in too bad of shape.

Tires are 4 years old, but has plenty of tread..

Brake lines are OEM, I should look for some replacement ones ASAP..

Brakes squeal like mad when close to stop.... but quiet when you get on them hard at speed..

Riding it feels like steering a Mack truck engine, you're really "on" the bike rather than "in" the bike. But it does run pretty smooth.. no odd shaking or vibe..

Shifting is a bit rough, likely need a spline lube... that's gonna take a few weeks.

State inspection sticker is good until May 2011, maybe I'll ride it around until then before tackling the spline lube.

I'm getting myself a vintage license plate..

Went to check out another SV650S today.. 124xx mi. 2-Bros. exhaust, Stage 1 jet kit.. Rode it around for few miles and handed the cash over.





Probably pick up sometime next week.

It's an addiction... not sure if drugs are any better.

Like to think that most my purchases are practical.. since no moto in my garage cost more than $3k to purchase. Far less than some of the drug runs I've done.

Cool

Finally picked up the SV650S, transport it home, got to examine it little closer.
The header of the 2-Bros exhaust is rusted at the weld joint, not sure if that something fixable or I might need to source some replacement headers.
Shift lever has been fixed by way of home mechanics.. drilled through the broken lever and replaced with a screw & nut.
Valves are ticking quite loud at idle, could be loose, that would explain the easy start when cold. Overall, not too bad for $1500

God, those SV's look soooo much better than the newer ones. I like the new ones alright, but the older ones are just damn sexy to look at.

gawd. why dont they have second hand bikes with those prices over here in indo

i would have bought it in a snap for that price, if it has the full registration/papers.

also always liked the SV look, kinda like a bike with full sports farings that didnt quite get all the farings on before getting shipped out of the factory, hehe...

Man, I've been looking for that gen SV650 for a year now, everyone wants $3,000 or up unless it's a beat to hell stunt bike or has no title. In Texas title is critical; it's actually illegal to offer for sale a vehicle for which you don't have a transferable title. Last one I looked at was a storage unit victim, stored with pool chemicals. Everything was eaten up with rust inside and out, including the tank. Only wanted $1,750 for it and wouldn't budge off that price. Sigh...

Good looking bike there at a great price!

Finally, got the Sherpa in one piece, it's a pretty entertaining ride..

Put more street oriented tires on, oversized Renthal handlebar, added Barkbusters, used OEM lighting/signals and cheap mirrors from eBay..

Scored a 98 Nighthawk just before the hurricane.
Tad over 15k mi., Corbin seat, engine guards, centerstand, backrest, steel brake line, with big box full of OEM parts, filters/oil/lube and manuals.



PO moving to a Roadstar, getting rid of this meticulously maintained machine at a song to make room for his next scoot.



I see clip-on bars in the near future.
