Default I might trade my bike in this weekend...

I went to a local dealer here in Phoenix, AZ. and saw a Black and Yellow paint scheme '00 Honda CBR 600 F4 with a little less than 11K on the clock. It has a two brothers carbon fiber slip on, frame sliders, flush mounts, and some other stuff I can't remember. So yeah I might trade in my Red and Black paint scheme '99 Honda CBR 600 F4 with 11,xxx miles in for that. The reason being is that the one they have is in a little better condition, cosmetically. Price for it is $5500.00

What do you guys think?

Sounds like a bit too much. My friend got a cherry '01 R6 w/like 5K miles for $5000. I know that's a pretty hard to find deal but they're out there.

Probaby a shitty idea because I'm sure they'll only give you like 3grand for yours. I noticed your sig says 00 F4 so did you do it already?

I'd offer $4500 for one that's never been down. That's kinda low balling it but IMO, that's what a 5 year old F4i is worth.

No. . I think I'm just gonna do what one of my buddies told me. He said for the difference in price just put that into your bike and call it a day.

sounds like a better idea, you don't know what could be wrong with that bike. it might cost you more in the long run.

Very true. My buddy told me, "if you want a yellow bike bad enough just take the money and paint the bitch yellow."
