Vouch for the seller and the bike. He keeps things in A++ condition. Also, NO this cannot be a road bike (without way more work than it’s worth).

can you ask him what color blue this is?

might want to list the mods, too, I’m sure it has a lot done to it. hindle high mount exhaust (slip on or full)? vortex sprockets, 520 chain conversion? some aftermarket rearsets. Vortex maybe? ss brake lines? swingarm spools, frame sliders, case covers with sliders, I’d assume it to have a steering damper of some sort? What company makes the bodywork?

those look like rain tires, what tires come on the bike? or is there a spare set of wheels w/regular tires also?

Rick, he’s actually been “selling” it for awhile. Just not actively. Bikes dont exactly sell at the end of the year very well. It may very well be available in Feb. He’s also selling his GSX-R, just bought a Triumph 675!

675 Triumph. Hot Sex. Very jealous. Lightest flickable bike I’ve ever ridden. Good luck with sale. OR maybe I should say bad luck until I have money? 😛

Few more details to answer some questions.

“Galfer brake lines, Factory covers, CFM rearsets, Vortex clipons, standard Hindle race exhaust, 520 chain, frame sliders, Scott’s steering damper, Penske rear shock. The engine is a blueprint with a thin headgasket, redegreed cams, and the carbs are modified. The bike is prepared to Superstock specs. I have no idea who made the bodywork, I’m pretty sure this is the set I made by taking pieces other people threw away and glassed them together. The color ended up being more purple than we intended, but whatever.”

that’s weird. he said factory covers, but the pics obv illustrate case covers with sliders. the clutch side slider appears to even have already been down in a crash

am i missing something? or is he not including them with the sale?

He told me he thought they were factory covers, so I listed them as such. What is on the bike (plus all the spares) is what the price is for.

Honestly, it’s not going to happen. You’ll have more money invested in getting it street legal(ish) than it’d cost to get a legal one in the first place.

I think it mostly would just need the lights, but they’re $$$$. I also don’t know what the title is, it might be off-road only or something. I could ask, but I don’t think it’d be a good idea to turn it into a street bike.
