Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

I'd love another one too but right now it's not a priority and at 6500 bucks it would have to be still in the crate brand new. There's great deals on them to be had and that wasn't one of them. Low mileage and literally not a scratch or chip anywhere and maybe towards 4k tops.

Well, people like the word mint, so they are paying stupid prices for 'mint' 12 year old bikes, while my 2010 'not mint' has no offers at 5900 lol

I haven't really tried to sell it yet but still.

Re: CBR250s

Indeed. I got a major soft spot for the 7 myself. Its such a good looking bike in my opinion. and the handling- its on rails. so stable.

id say itll pass some major gas instead of just farting though , with a full pipe and good jetting, itll surprise a lot of modern bikes.

Caboose- got any pics of your old P models? Would love to see em.

Sadly no..... well there might be some on my old laptop. I'll fire it up and see if there's anything there.

Re: CBR250s

What it is with ZX7s is more like what you guys are posting, fondly remembered but not too many dedicated followers. Hence the low demand. What hurts them is wide availability, unorthodox styling (I do like it personally) and that they are heavy pigs compared to even some of the same era bikes like 929 for example.

Some kijiji sellers are under the impression that old = classic = desirable = gold mine
Rarely the case

Basically you nailed it. Zx7's to me are the iconic sport bike simply because when I was old enough to ride on the road they were the hot bike to have. Eventually I'd like to have one again just because of regret of selling my last one. There were better/faster bikes but there's something about them for some of us. That's not to say they're for everyone just like any other bike or car or anything like it. As they get older I'm sure the really nice ones left will command higher dollars but I don't think that time has come yet.

I admire the effort and work that would have gone into it but best of luck with that price.

I like at the end how he makes a point of saying he's not paying $50 for a safety on his $22,000FIRM gixxer

Plus let's not forget the fact that he put LEDS on the back, (presumably for better visibility) then tinted them out to make them less visible...lol

a) it's Woodbridge, bro everything is more expensive there. Trust me, I know
b) mental note: Never put real postal code in Kijiji ad.

I don't get stretched bikes. A few years ago I was in Tokyo and I was expecting to see some awesome bikes, but mostly it was just these Bosozuko types on stretched Gixxers.
Turns out the real bikes are in Hamamatsu.

Wut. Lol. That's ****** up. Just buy a crf50. That looks like Chinese junk

Edit - just checked them out. How have i not heard of these

 

[Matt Rain]

Yeah I just saw one in action, they actually seem to be badass little things.

 

[Iceman]

Actually, cobra motocross bikes are not Chinese junk. They are highly competitive mini-motos. Comparable to Ktm mini racers.
