Questions about Motorcycles

So im looking to buy the Yamaha Fz6r 2013 in Pearl White.
Now do I haggle as if im buying a car?
My three bike Choices were Suzuki Gsx-R600/ Yamaha fz6r/ Kawasaki Ninja 650R.

Any advise, ideas, anything.

Thanks.

Why does this strike me as an absolutely terrible idea?

$5000 in cash right now sounds a lot better than $6500 over the term of the deal in person.

You can't avoid hitting things and getting hit in your car. Now you want a bike?

Not to mention you're looking to get a 650 as your first bike. It's obviously your first bike, because of the question you asked in your first post. You know what a good starter bike is? A 250. Start there.

Im too heavy for a 250 haha.
im fat man! 210 pounds is no joke for 250!

Have you ever ridden one?

Before you buy a bike, go take the motorcycle safety course. Then decide on a bike.

very true..

eastwest2300 · 01-23-2014, 11:47 AM

I use to ride.. a 250 is a good starter bike, but you'll have it a few weeks before you want to be on at least a 600.

I've had 2 GSXRs and a R6.. a 600 is more than enough to get you killed or seriously hurt. So just be careful, I've lost 4 friends on speed bikes, thats why I gave it up almost 2 years ago.

In California where lane splitting is legal, you hear a motorcycle fatality every two days, causing huge traffic jam. Natural selection at play

Google and you can usually find what invoice is for that bike
And YES haggle away

XiP · 01-23-2014, 12:27 PM

if you're a klutzy person like me please don't get a motorcycle
you'll just end up getting injured or killing yourself
