This bike is probably more garuenteed to increase in price if I can talk the owner down a few K from $20k

Maybe I'm not seeing something, but why is a yamaha worth $20k?

sfa22r · « **Reply #4 on:** May 21, 2010, 07:01:33 AM »

Yamaha R7. Pretty much the baddest mother fucker on the planet in terms of factory bikes. It's an extreme limited production (500 units) bike to homologate for F.I.M. Bike is pretty much a WSBK ride detuned for the streets. ECU tweak/fuel pump and it will make 160's to the tire on good gas. AKA it will still rape a brand new 1000cc bike around a road course and it is more than 10 years old.

At least I'm not the only one that doesnt get it. I love sportbikes, I used to ride 6-7 days a week, but no bike is worth $20k to me

Henry makes too much money now. So in typical fashion he's going to blow it all on stupid shit.

If I had 20 grand id give 50 to JD for a 4BAR to go with the Bosch 11s I jut paid sewell for

sfa22r · « **Reply #12 on:** May 21, 2010, 10:35:46 AM »

You guys are high. I offered $15k lowballin. That shit has been going upwards in value. Is between this, a BMW S1000RR, or possibly the Aprilia RSV4R. We'll see what happens. As far as blowing money, another bike, a trailer, a truck, and I'll still have more than enough left for a house in Feb.

narfdanarf · « **Reply #13 on:** May 21, 2010, 11:13:51 AM »

Just saw a 100% bone stock bmw s1000rr put down 216 to the tire last wed. Friends bone stock r1 put down 161 same day. Besides the weird ass lights I'd definitely buy one of the bimmers at like $14k brand new you can't hardly beat it.

sfa22r · « **Reply #14 on:** May 21, 2010, 11:31:37 AM »

Dyno is friendly. Stock BMW's are laying consistent 180s, but not 216. Bone stock put down 182.x on the AMA dyno.

I've got one lined up to take home for a weekend when I get back. Has all the nice electronic doo-dads too. I heard the wheelie control is a bit harsh, but it should be a real fun bike. Only thing that scares me is the $$$ of aftermarket bits. Same deal with the Aprilia though. But the corse catalog has some awesome stuff in it. Really want to see what the MV F4 is like, but that's too pricey for not near the same performance as the other 2 new bikes.

Yeah that bike is WAY above what i would spend on one. But it's alot less stupid then i have seen some people waste money on.

runsfromdacops · « **Reply #17 on:** May 21, 2010, 04:14:19 PM »

that bike is soooooo rare.vary cool bike but not worth 20k. my dealer had one band in 2002? but still a sick bike

chris · « **Reply #18 on:** May 21, 2010, 04:22:33 PM »

Can you buy it and please kill yourself on it?

Its stupid to spend $20,000 on a bike that is 10 years old. Sportbike technology changes so rapidly its stupid to buy that old of a bike for performance. Look at the performance difference in any 600cc sportbike from their 2000 models to the 2010, there's no comparision.

I'd buy a leftover 09' and put $10,000 in it. Guarantee it would skullfuck that bike in every way possible

Watch out, you just prepared yourself for a really hard really big henry-ing.

Foowee · « **Reply #22 on:** May 21, 2010, 07:08:27 PM »

This thing is like a Gnx or an 89 Zr1. You can build something for less money, that is faster, and be able to use it. Low production + low miles = $$$. Look at how much a low mileage '97 hype r goes for(#'s 67 n 69 come to mind).

So yeah, if you're looking for a delicate highdollar paperweight, this is your ticket. I prefer to drive my stuff. I'd also like it to have value because I made it that way, not cause some oem decided to do a slightly peppy, short run of a normal item...

Ummm. I doubt it. An AMA spec 600 motor ain't going to touch it. And at that point your looking at refreshing the motor every weekend. Full Ohlins Forks/Shock=$4-5k, without having it setup. The geometry on the bike is completely different from any street 600. Shortened Deltabox II frame. Oh, let's not forget the wheels, tack on another $2k for that. Yeah go and build something that will perform similar for under $15k without going up to a 1000cc bike. And it's gotta be street legal too. Remember, the R7 is gonna undercut the '09 R1 by 100lbs...

Didn't know a 70% increase over a stock R6 was slightly peppy? Seems like 60ish whp increase on a bike does wonders. I can purchase one of last years' Attack M4 Suzuki GSXR-600 SS bikes for about $14k, but they aren't street legal. This thing with good gas will WALK a modern 1000 on the street, either straight line or twisties.

Like I said, I lowballed at $15k. If he doesn't bite, I'll have an RSV or S1000RR as a street bike. Although Mladin's Yoshimura Suzuki is for sale. But not a street bike.

LS1pwNzJ00 · « **Reply #27 on:** May 22, 2010, 02:53:47 AM »

but its not a 600, its a 750

sfa22r · « **Reply #28 on:** May 22, 2010, 03:31:07 AM »

True. Try it with a GSXR 750 then. Still can't build one for that. And the GSXR will still take a full motor build to get there.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #29 on:** May 22, 2010, 11:33:00 AM »

So you want to take a valuable, rare bike and squid it around town until it's all used up and destroyed?
