Right now,I don't see either.

I... Kind of want that.

Not $1200 want that, mind you. But kind of want that

 

Yeah it has potential to be cool but maybe $200 cool

 

OMG, my grandmother had an exercise bike with a front end like that!

 

Deathtrap! No front brakes!

 

Rode one of these as a kid......could never get fast enough to need front brakes.....we'd just jump off and hold the bike back

 

Rofl that thing is hilarious

 

Surely we must have a Shriner in our midst looking for a ride?

Why is this thing still for sale?

 

Now, this is what I'm talking about: https://rochester.craigslist.org/mpo/d/yamaha-motorcycle/6242670998.html
but, I think that's a FZR600, not an F6Z (if that's a thing).

 

Because you haven't bought it yet

has anybody else seen this? i hear it's some kind of paypal scam

 

Scam, has something seriously wrong with it, or it's stolen.

I'd expect a "I'm not in the country right now, but if you send me a $xxx deposit, I'll have my agent meet you at the bike with the keys and you can check it out."

 

It could be legit but with a typo, more likely looking for $15,000

 

If I had a big property like yours Dave I'd consider it. Living in the city I'm struggling to keep 9 bikes out of the rain as it is.
I lugged my 2 recently acquired motors home on the weekend, XJ9 and XJ-T, left them in the van for now until I find a place for them.
One of the 9 is just an XJ650RJ parts bike I need to tear down to bits which will gain me some room. I have a mezzanine above my garage I need to start stashing shit. My Turbo project is taking up too much space!

Maybe needing exhaust is keeping buyers away. Good luck finding those pipes

"Only maxim ive seen with a king Queen seat with sissy bar!"

Harumph!!! Never seen mine have ya?

 

Yup, the king/queen seat was an option, and the 'sissy bar' isn't a sissy bar...it's a support for the tall back of the seat.

 

But Stumpy, yours doesn't have the sweet glassless headlight option! And I'd call your "queen" an old bag. Never to her face, though!

 

Jacksonville, Fl optimist.

Ooooooo......don't wast your time trying to scam him--he might call the police------

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!

How about if WE call the police cuz HE'S trying to scam US?!?!?!?

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

$1500 for a bike that's been dropped, doesn't run right, and missing parts????

Yeah--that's optimistic, ferrrrr sherrrrrr.....

 

Perhaps he meant $150????

 

poor bike has had its beautiful atari and headlight removed he should be reported to the police.

It would be a shame if a bunch of people started sending him offers for the bike


"with my limited knowledge of wiring." I wonder how he did the atari bypass?????????????

 

^^^ That Jacksonville one may be the best yet!

 

I don't consider Atari "beautiful" and it isn't a crime to remove it in my jurisdiction, but the tiny speedo and tach they replaced Atari with just looks ridiculous!

 

I did too untill I sat on a 82 750 maxim with the buck horn handle bars beutiful lines.

one of the things I like about the Yamahas is the way ALL the lines line up hard to find one line that is not in line with another even the exhaust tips

 

nice, but not that nice. should the shock springs be gold?

It's real purdy, but 3900? Yeah, that's a bit optimistic!

 

Anyone looking for a 650 SECA?

http://siouxfalls.craigslist.org/mcy/6247339950.html

 

Yes....

 

Dang, always too far away.

 

Aw, man! You could probably talk him down a bit too... The exhaust could be a challenge to replace.

 

apparently, you did see it! (should have checked before commenting on the other thread)

 

Yeah, would be tough. Rest looks pretty complete and restore able. If it was closer I'd be on the phone.

 

Complete exhaust for it is on eBay----

 

I saw that, closer to me too! No bike though

 

Just ride the exhaust like a kid on a stick pony and make vroom vroom vroom noises!

 

I'm 60 miles from the Sioux Falls bike. However, I don't need another motorcycle...

Personally, I like messing with a chain . With emphasis on "mess" - cleaned and adjusted mine last night. Sometimes shaft drive does sound appealing - an my rear tire would stay cleaner...

 

tire and center stand would be cleaner, the price of a u joint for a shaft drive 478$ and is obsolete part
but I have 2 shaft drives now need to stock up on an extra drive shaft or 2

 

....yet I have never had to replace any

----- and there's loads of them here on the site, and many of us have plenty of parts bikes anyway.....nobody would pay that kind of money. Heck I'd sell some for half that!!lol

 

for you guys in the north west

Ummm....yes you do

 

Everyone knows, the correct number of motorcycles owned is n+1.

 

Oh my god.

Holy mother of a train wreck Batman!
When did they legalize weed in Tennessee, cause that seller is as high as a kite.
$3,500???!!!!

Besides the front tire, the right hand side spark plug is completely painted!!! Holding the headlight in position really adds value....

 

Header tape and nobody is the wiser?

 

Hey, he's a builder, not a painter!

It gets worse the longer you look at it, which is shocking because it looks pretty damn bad. lol
