DO NOT BUY A BIKE FROM THEM. I bought my '01 F4i from them a couple years ago under the impression that it had been put down in the dirt at low speeds. They repainted the "original fairings" fairly well, but after a couple weeks I took them off and found out they were older fairings that had been fiberglassed back together. Also, I found scratches to the frame under the fairings after a closer inspection. Oh yeah, and the ECU was from a different year F4i, making me wonder what else was missing or different.

I know I should have known better, but at the time I was stoked on the bike. They primarily buy used damaged bikes for cheap and fix them up, selling them without disclosing other problems.

If you're going to buy one from them, be VERY CAREFUL.

sucks to hear bro, but yea thanks for the heads up the bike I am looking at says clean title, but the fairings are all solid color. the decals are missing. i dunno, for some reason i am suspecting that they got a damaged bike w.o the previous owner reporting it salvaged, and just fixed it themselves. they are also a repair shop.

Ya, I'd be weary about buying another bike from them. Look for something as close to stock as possible.

Also, they are not a licensed motorcycle dealer. I asked about this when I bought my bike and they confirmed that they are not. Just one more great thing about them.

they seem okay. hey quick66, when you purchased your f4i, did they tell you it has been down? when i checked out the bike that i wanted, it seemed to be in the condition that they said it was. i dunno, i guess purchasing used bikes are a risk...i think i will know until i buy it, take it apart myself, and take a closer look. the only thing i noticed with them so far is that they do not budge on the price, not at all. anways, Merry Christmas everyone! ride safely!
