Sniper_308

I’m posting this bike for a friend. Long story short, she cosigned for a friend, he wrecked the bike and got hurt. His landscaping company took a turn for the worse. He lost all of his accounts, and tried making a few payments, but didn’t have the money to do so, and defaulted on the loan. She had no other choice, but to repossess the bike from him. The bike has some damage to both sides of the fairings, and some slight cosmetic damage. She stated to me that the bike is rideable, and tracks straight going down the road. To the best of my knowledge, the frame is still straight and in good condition. Looks like all someone would need to do is just replace the fairings out for new ones. The bike is completely stock, and I am not sure on the condition of the tires. The bike currently has 9,773 miles on it. I apologies for the photos, they’re not that greatest, I didn’t take them. I’m planning on heading out there this week, to take some better photos of the bike. The bike is located out in Lorain, if anyone is interested in this bike. I can make arrangements so you can meet with her to view the bike, or discuss pricing. $6,000 obo, all offers are welcome. The title is free and clear.

I couldn't agree more.

MT, getting ready for the gun show.

Looking forward to the reviews on the new 1099.

^ Good read! It seems that people who never rode the crossplane crankshaft, are so quick to put it down. You either love it or hate it, I personally love it. It's a cross between a high revving I-4, and V-twin. I let two guys ride it last year, out at Nelsons. They both couldn't get enough of it. Anyways, I was hoping for a new R1 this year. Oh well, there's is always next year.

Are those some kind of new anal beads?

US46 excellent condition $200.00 OBO US50 excellent condition $200.00 OBO

Good luck in your future endeavors.

Bump for a nice helmet.

Yamaha took a different approach with the crossplane, make it easier to ride and really not try to compete with the other companies at peak power, while trying to refine the bike they had. But, you do bring up some good valid points. I'm waiting to see how the new Ducati 1199 turns out.

You drive a hard bargain.

You might be on to something. Will probably cut him into pieces, and shot him out of that cannon last night.

Definitely.

Yeah, that's a turn off. She's got a little pouch on her too.

I remember reading somewhere that 2013 is going to be a completely redesigned bike. We shall see... I would like to think so, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

Me too! I'll second that.

She does have some summer teeth.

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed in Yamaha. I have always been a big fan, but they need to step up their game to compete with the other liter bikes. Don't get me wrong, I love my 09, but I thought we would be looking at a new bike this year.

New ECU settings provide excellent drivability during low and mid rpm acceleration. New top triple clamps add to the appearance of the YZF-R1, reminiscent of the MotoGP® powerhouse YZR-M1. The footrests have been redesigned for great boot sole contact and advanced rider/motorcycle interface. New headlight cowl styling and LED position lights enhance the YZF-R1’s unique styling. New silencer heat guards and end caps are re-styled to give the rear end of the bike a more compact look ,while at the same time making the individual parts look more mechanical.
