Hard way up

You all americans think that it is for everyone easy to be a nice pro stunter, and not to roam through streets and do ****. First of all I payed my '03 636 more than 10000$ and as I can see you get it in US for 7200$. Another thing average salary here in Croatia where I live is about 450$/month. So if I break my bike im ****ed. I changed many bikes in life, but every bike was hard to get and expensive - total luxsury in our country.
Also I do not have a place to stunt free on some abandoned place with nice pavement. Our roads are ****ed and are only place to stunt. So think how lucky you are.

i think you're getting worked by dealers. 600's do not come out to 10k when all said and done.

Finland is extremely expensive too. The price of a new GSXR 600 for example is around 13-14k.. A new 900rr would be something close to 18-19k

$9200???? Wow, I picked my 03 GSXR 600 up for 8000 right out the door, thats taxes and licensing all paid for. I went into the dealer and told him I had 8k to spend and thats it. Not a penny over. They took it! Thats here in Washington state.

You all got RAPED. I got my 2003 gsxr600 out the door for $6756.00 out the door back in november of 2002. Honda East in Toledo, Ohio has the deals. All the bikes are super cheap. At least $1500 below invoice.
