School holidays still?
Yeah, there will definately be a test ride in there to check it out! It *looks* porky, but I'm willing to bet it won't be. Anything with that much grunt has gotta be fun for ride. Cam
There are a _few_ 2005 models around which some dealers are discounting... best price I've seen is about $16k plus on roads though. Definitely not 2006 plated though (and despite what you might think Caneron just because a bike is sold in January or February 2006 that doesn't make it a 2006 model). G-S
My mistake, I ment to say 2005 not 2006. Correct you all are. Still you can get a 2005 on road for 15k.
Oops again, make that 2005 for16k on road. Better catch on some more sleep... http://www.bikesales.com.au/as/sear...6&previousResultPerPage=20¤tPage=1&x=72
Great, very useful info, not. The 06 is significantly different to the 05* they aren't really substitutable - particularly given the guy in question was selling an 04 which is identical in all respects to an 05 (except the compliance plate date of course) JL *for high end sports bike values of "very different"
Well ... they did infact change a bracket and the sheathing on the rear brake line. Stiffer top out springs. Slightly revised shift mech and different 3rd gear I think it was too. Very minimal changes. None of those problems have hampered me though. Cam
Yes, I'm aware that there *was* runout deals on the 2005 models, and in any sense, for sure you would jump on it. By my research, which is hey, not much, most places have sold out, so that's why the bike is on the market. If you want new, of course you're going to look for an '05 and try and get the best deal you can. 13k is my asking price, not what I'll get for it. Now lets start talking comparos. It's the 2004 ZX10R, shat all over the blade, the R1, and the gixxer the year it came out. It took the current gixxer to match/perhaps beat it, and even then it was only by a small margin. (Not discounting the beginner bike, the 1000RR ... just to dig at the Honda fans .. hehe) So, for what it most likely going to be 12k, what else are you going to get ? Check bikesales, tradingpost and other sites and you'll actually see this is pretty comptetitively priced. Cam
My local dealer insists the run out is $16k plus on roads and that advert doesn't say "ride away" or anything like that... G-S
Crap ... you've got me there! Does that come with a beer gut? If its ausmoto, it *ALWAYS* comes with a beer gut.
