Re: Starter bike.... (MIDNIGHTTUNER)
have you tried signing up for a class yet? Around here they fill up like 2-3 weeks in advance
and you dont need a week, for me it was one night class and 2 mornings on the weekend
I'm a noob too and looking to pick up a used ninja 500 as my first bike. Won't get the bitches at starbucks like a 600ss will, but its far more forgiving when it comes to making n00b mistakes either with the throttle or brake

I saw a Mary Kay pink Cadillac today. At first I thought it was some rap star trying to be gangsta or whatever. Then I remembered Mary Kay.

Re: Starter bike.... (LAS2K)
How about this thing. Its about 5 min from my house. Nada says $200-600 in fair-good condition
Might be able to walk away with it for just a couple hundred bucks (def no more than 1000)
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/mcy/636760202.html
How much power did these things have?

. be prepared to spend at least that much in replacement parts though

Re: (EGlovr)
meh, its my first bike, I'd rather get something newer and dead reliable
It could be golden or it could be a lemon, I don't really want to be the one to find out.
my ninja 500 search continues, looking at 3 different ones, hopefully I can strike a decent deal. resale is pretty good on them so I won't lose much anyway (as long as I don't dump it)

UCB, the NADA values are WAY off of what the actual going market value is for bikes. I'd say $1300 would be a nice starting offer. But several hundred dollars, are you crazy?

I was thinking the same thing. I would definitely pay 1000 for that. If nothing else, just to keep around for friends to ride.
