Well he can always sell it to me for $2500 when it does blow and I'll get a new engine for it :mrgreen:

I'm sure that would make you grin like a retard a little easier.

Go buy it and I'll be down there to pick it up and pay you back in like... 2-3 months :lol:

 

[R13]

Also while you have it take the wheels off and have them powdercoated red. :rolf:

 

[94RS]

It's a dealership... Trade your F4i as a down payment.

 

[R13]

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't accept a 99 F4-F4i conversion that needs a chain kit, cam chain tensioner, brake pads, throttle body sync and a valve adjustment :rolf:

 

[94RS]

It's not even a real F4i? :rolf:

They'd still give you enough for a down payment, then turn around and sell it for 1200 :lol:

 

[R13]

Not as far as the insurance company is concerned :rolf:

From everything I've looked at though it's a clean conversion. Whoever did it went all the way with the swingarm, wheels, forks, engine, everything. Just has the F4 frame/title.

Notice I've been referring to it as "the f4" :lol:

first thing everyone notices on my bike is the rear tire, apparently it's a power one tire, everyone says its like $400 tire but I can't find any info online lol

 

[R13]

They're Michelin Power One's, they're a DOT race tire, and they're about $400 for the whole set.

Just watch, when I actually have $2500, they'll rocket in price like RC's :lol:

Doubt it. Buell's are steadily declining. I've seen a few 1125's for under 4k recently, and even a few XB9's for around 2k. There's also been a bunch of tube frames (S1, X1, M2) recently for around 2500.

 

[R13]

I don't need to buy one, but if I find a red/black 12r when the cash is laying around I'm fuckin buying one :rolf:

I'd consider an 1125r, but only because I wanna do the buff firebolt look.

 

[94RS]

I didn't need to buy my 9R, just like I didn't need to fix it after it broke. :lol:


Apparently the 1125 looks the way it did because of HD's derpy involvement... Look at the patent drawing for the radiator pods.

 

[R13]

That's the way it should look :lol:

Then you'd only have to get a lower fairing kit for it, which could've been a factory add on and I bet that bike would've sold even better.
