Looking for: Starter bike

OneWhoKnows · 03-31-2005, 07:56 PM

My girlfriend wants to get into riding and I think an R1 is a bit much for her :lmao

I'm looking for any decent 250 / 500cc starter bike... but I'd LOVE to get an Aprilia RS250. Not that I'd track it or anything... :biglaugh

Anyways, I'll keep my eye out on this thread.

I know someone that was selling a ninja 250 in great shape. I'll call him during normal hours and see if he still has it.

If you mean Rico, he sold that within 24 hours.

I may be selling my 2003 Ninja 500R this summer, if I can find a used ZX-6R or F3 for sale in my price range. If you are still looking then, let me know. It's a great starter bike, and was my first.

$3K, very low miles (6K) on the bike and has been babied by me. Does have some scratches on the fairing and pipes from when I dropped it at the stop sign when learning. It's had its major tune-ups and will get another one before I sell it.

I've got a better idea, instead of buying her a nice new modern 600 (which she WILL mess up) why not get her a true starter bike? I'm selling my 90 Fzr 600 for cheap (I have to clear it out to buy suspension/crap for my racebike) Heres the straight divvy. It needs a new battery, but other than that it runs like a champ. Tires are pretty darn good (Bt-014's best you can get for the size wheel) and she has alot of life in her. If your interested PM me. I'd rather not post how much I want for her (Believe me its dirt cheep way less that I should be selling it) because I hate getting a bunch of crap u2u's from people who are barely interested.

You'd be plesantly suprised at what a older 600 is still capable of in the right hands, I never had to much trouble keeping up with very quick riders on modern 600s and 1000's. I could'nt imigane a better bike for myself to have started on, mabye it can train another newbie.
