i'm lookin for a virgin to break in but its like just about everyone i find is costing more than most 600rr's i find.... i swear it's like every one i find that has less than 2000 miles someone wants like $6500-7000 for em

 

They're collectors items.......what do you expect?

 

banana seats add like 2 grand to the value

 

mike i know what you mean been shopping around to and it ******* ridiculous!!!!!

 

ya no kiddin! maybe i should buy 2 and leave one settin for a couple years


i could store it till the other one is clapped out in a few years then start again fresh

 

this is why im buying a 954, to stunt, im sure i could buy a shitty f4i but why waste the money, new bikes get more exspensive because more people are riding nowadays

 

mike you have a damn good idea!!!!

 

haha yea and it'll be the first thing that gets ditched and swapped for an 01-03 subframe/tail :YEAH

id REALLY like to find a two tone silver 05 for a good deal!

 

Seriously, if you want to make some good money, buy up any F4I/636 motors you see in crashed bikes. Give it a few years, and those motors will be like gold. Look at 900rr motors these days......very far and few between.

 

you ought to check out the texas craigslist thats where i found this 03' 954 for 4800 it has 6000 miles, i got it today, but ive seen some newer f4i for some ok prices, and you aren't that far

 

true but the smart people would get the newer 919 motor bolts in... takes very little modification and last but not least its FUEL INJECTED!!!

 

yeah i dunno whatsup with people asking rediculous prices for their f4i's. especially like an 01 or 02 and they ask 5500 for. **** that. nobody buys f4i's exept cheapo stunters. a complete squid wouldnt buy an f4i, he'd get something faster like an r6 or 600rr.

 

You do make a good point, but there are hardly any 919's around either. I thought Honda would sell more of them.

 

i've been looking for ANY f4i i can get my hands on to have as a stunter and the cheapest i can find is a friends who's is already stunted out for 3500...and he donesn't even want to come off of it for that yet. I'll have to keep watching the salvage auctions in the area where people who rana dn wrecked got their bikes impounded.

I think the bike prices are going crazy because of the gas prices, around here you can't even find a used sport bike anymore. They're all bought up and another guy i know who is looking for just a sport bike to ride is going to ahve to buy his first bike new because of the shortage. Doesn't want to, but there's not even any ex500's left in this area for some reason

 

Unfortuneately F4I/636 owners probably won't have that option. 900RR owners just got lucky with Hondas decision to revive the old 900rr engine configuration.

 

I have been looking since the end of May I just finally said **** it I am buying one, I got it on Thursday. I did not get a great deal but i did not get a shitty deal. I picked up an 04 Yamaha R-6 4000 miles 100% clean minty as hell this guy did not ride it hard at all. anyway 5400 I know it is not a great deal but its not horrible. People are just asking crazy *** prices for stuff. I always find killer deals but not this year.

 

its fuking crazy when someone says ill sale a almost 8yr old bike for 5grand or more, **** a 8yr car wouldn't even sale for what a newer model cost and some jackass are selling there bikes for a few thousand dollars cheaper, ya right! i could care less what mods on it its still 8yrs old!!!!!

 

ya, but it's still a 954. they suck as a parking lot bike and parts for htem are crazy expensive. about the only good thing on them is the forks.


i got my f4i last november, 19k miles on it, clean title, not stunted, 2800$

 

gix thats reasonable its an 04 with you miles, congrats not bad at all

 

yea binder its true i was just getting tired of a 636, its the only big bike i like besides a 929 and im trying to talk my friend into selling me his.
