CL is hurting these days, so much spam and scam listings

its not what it used to be, sucks

 

they started charging $5 per vehicle listings. Ive seen people put them into the parts section. But I agree, not what it used to be

 

Buying used also makes it easier for me to justify owning more than one bike. For example a new one might cost $10k but instead you could find 2 nice lightly used bikes for $5k a piece.

They might be older but a lot of times the models don't change very drastically over a few years. I'm also ok with not having the latest and greatest.

 

I flip vehicles all the time. CL def blows that its $5 but it still has a place as annoying as it is...however FB marketplace is wayyyy better as of now, I've sold many more vehicles that way over any other site


edit: for your viewing pleasure...its primarily cars we like, as my dad and I got our NYS dealers license/plate for fun...but I have done a handful of bikes..here was a beaut I hated to let go last summer...

 

its hit or miss for me. I have stuff on there now, and no hits on it for 5+ weeks. Then when I want to buy something, it gets sold within the hour.

 

I think I finally decided on an upgrade (when I’m ready): the CBR600F4i.
They can be had for relatively cheap, but they have great reviews and are fuel injected to boot.
Plus, I love the way they look.

I can’t afford a newer CBR, so this might be my next step. I just have to find one.

 

I like the 01-03 because of the split seat. But I think they had some battery issues

 

I remember my buddy got a brand new 2001 F4i as a graduation gift from his parents. He beat the hell out of that thing and it didn't quit

 

i cant even find them on craigslist. I think theyre all being used for stunt

 

Yup his was all stunted out too

 

How many times do I have to tell y’all about down shifting ...

NEVER GO HIGHER THAN SECOND GEAR.
Bitches love the gnarly sound your throaty exhaust makes bruhhhhhh

 

How easy/hard is it to get your dealer license?

 

I 100% agree the first gen w the split seat is the way to go on an F4i...but at this point cant you get an early cbr600RR for the same price? aren't 05s like $3k? better front forks, better swingarm, better FI system, underseat exhaust, lighter, looks cooler, all that jazz - no?

in NYS? pretty annoying. lots of inspections, have to spend a bunch of $, have a physical location all that bullshit. You're in MT? no clue. you prob just have to fire a revolver in the air 3x and eat 4 huckleberries.

 

They make for great stunt bikes. Time to up your parking lot game!

 

he just moved to NC

 

Cause they are fucking tanks. Can't even tell you how many times I rolled this bitch in the lot.





Also found a sweet 525 exc locally. I need my shit to sell.

 

i love it, these two guys are really starting to understand how TW functions

 

and @kcuv is totally correct, at this point a 2007+ cbr600rr can be sourced for under 5k in great shape with relative ease in searching...

 

yet, an 01-03 stock F4i cannot be found

 

i know you can find them, they just not be the ones you looking to buy...
