I know prices are so subjective to the owner. But realistically depreciation and maintenance takes a huge factor in to purchasing. Lets be honest, owners selling want the highest amount possible. Truth is Ive looked at around 20 bikes when buying and not one has showed me of records of work...

Id pay somewhere around 2000 to 2500 for that bike most. And thats if the bike didnt need any work ie sprockets chain fork fluid and brakes. Also I believe thats more of an orange than red from the look of it.

Update: So ive been riding with these on for about 3 to 4 times a week since I bought them.....everything is spot on. They have broken in well. Shifter is still a bit stiff...ive missed 1st to 2nd a few times, just my fault as the boots are a bit bulky top end so im not really shifting hard...

Its not illegal to carry alcohol as long as its sealed. If its open I think theyll just see if youve been drinking from it, if not might be ticketed for open container at the most.

Im 6 foot and so, around 200 and i own an 03. I love the comfort on it. My 2 other SV 650s were comparable. Street riding in the city on this bike is great.

And this is why there are no threads on "what should I rent on my trip to Russia".

So I recently invested in a pair of motorcycle boots. After long research and many videos I decided on the Sidi boots. Looking through their selection I tried to narrow down what boot met my requirements. Sidi has many choices for street riding, I dont do track. The fushion, cobra, vertigo, and...

03 r6. wawanesa. Im gonna try shooting some pics and sending it to the agent. hopefully that will suffice.

530 for a litre bike is great. Youll find debates on end (similar to what oil should I use) but I say go with a 530. Longevity belongs to what sprockets you install. Aluminum will go first. I recommend steel. Theres debate on weight savings but with such an engine id say go with steel.

Apparently not. They want an appraisal/evaluation of the motorcycle in order to have comprehensive.

So I need a condition appraisal for my 03 r6 for insurance. Does anyone know which shops do this and the cost?

I pleaded down to a 15/under speeding ticket...no demerit points, I think the fine(possibly a court fee) was 45 bucks. Beyond that it was my only ticket in 10 years, convicted 2 years ago. Do insurance agents take this into consideration or is there a grace for it?

So I live in the east end. Most appreciated for everyone who responded on the site as i have been following. Ive owned multiple bikes but never changed the fluid in the forks. Ill contact kneedragger88 once I take ownership for the bike in a few weeks. i should have been more specific when I...

Im looking to get the front fork fluid changed on my 03 r6. Does anyone have any recommendations on who to use and how much it would cost. Bike has 26000kms

OP, I mixed it up the first time....split second...i heard the wires spark/arc...but nothing happened....they work just as well...so i mean i highly doubt you will mess something up.
