IMHO. I wouldn't trade, but that's just me.

I would never trade a car for a motorcycle either. You can find a nice bike for cheap.. You can find f4i's for around 3200-4000 now a days.

I say keep your car. If anything, save up and buy a motorcycle. Chances are, once summertime ends, if not sooner, you'll want your car back...most people that get rid of their integras end up getting another in the future. Do you have any pictures of your car? (curious)

m mm maybe with 1k on top. the thing is, if the gsr is your only car you're gonna be f'd in the winter, getting groceries and nearly everything else that requires hauling. if you get the cbr use the extra 1000 you get, add some to it and at least buy a 1500 truck for the winter and hauling ****

bike wise, a friend of mine just bought an 04 R1 for $4000 with 2028 miles on it

my rule is to never buy a motorcycle this time of the year. i bought my last bike mid july 08 and the one before that in september of 06. prices in spring and the beginning of summer are inflated because everyone has the itch. even if your weather doesn't change drastically, the riding season has just started everywhere it does. interest is up, prices are up.

I would never trade a car for a bike personally. Have you taken a look on insurance for them?

I wouldn't do it. Everyone who's ridden bikes (Not me.) knows that you're gonna eat **** sooner or later. My neighbor has had 4 bikes already and he always tells me "**** bikes they're cool but a lot of problems I'd rather have my CRX for life than a bike" plus just the thought of getting hit by a car while riding a bike scares the **** outta of me.

this

i don't know a soul who's even a remote throttle junkie that hasn't wrecked at some point. one guy around here died, another hit a tree and somehow never broke a bone. the high odds of a serious wreck are the only reason i don't own one.

Yea, DO NOT TRADE THAT CAR FOR THAT BIKE.

5600 for a CBR? Pffft, 5600 around here can put you on a:

02-04 - Busa
03-06 - Yamaha R1
02-06 - GSXR-1000

3 better bikes, that I probably still wouldn't trade a car away for. Your cars appreciably modded, you could sell it and get enough money to buy another DD and a bike if you finagled it good enough, tell the dude to kick rocks his bike isn't worth your car by a long shot.
