96 CBR 600 F3 opinions

[wishinsky]

so about this 96 i planned on getting... lol i lied, well i will have the money for it here soon, but i was looking at pics of the 96 and i couldn't find one with the same paint job so i googled the 95 and i got a bunch with the same paint so i think the guy that is selling it posted it wrong cuz from the looks of it am going to have to say its a 95.. so u guys think thats still a good bike to get? for 2 grand and only 9k miles on it

[dubbsy]

they're essentially the same bike.

Is it the purple/black/yellow scheme?

[wishinsky]

lol nah.. i dont think you could catch me riding something yellow and purple even thow its a nice bike. i never imaged me riding this coming from how my dirt bikes look... i would post a pic but he sent them to me by hotmail and it wont let me load them into photobucket. but it has like a blue front and halfway up the gas tank, then the rest of the bike is black with a yellow honda wing on the side

[wishinsky]

well i asked him about the year and stuff on the bike and this is a quote from part of the email he sent me, "It is a 96. When I brought it to All Power Sports it didnt have any fairings and the guy that had it before me put on a 1995 gas tank so what they did was put on the stock 1995 fairings from a bike that had been down. That is why the fairings on this bike are skuffed. Its just the fairings that are damaged. If you have any more questions feel free to ask ill tell you the complete truth to the best of my knowledge." hhm iv email this kid for about a month now and it sounds pretty true

[wishinsky]

well am just going to stop posting as this guy has me beat on everything lol he sent me a pic of the model sticker and everything on the frame lol am am making u guys read all this junk for no reason so i will keep it short instead of a page (bored got nothing to do)

[wishinsky]

So as you guys know i want to get a bike... well i told you the bike am looking at and i finally got around to figuring how to get the pics out of my hotmail well here they are.. the basics.. (links)

I say why get a bike?...yeah, they are cool and all, but, just think...you could get a decent car for that much....maybe a half modified civic or DSM?....and keep building it, however, if you want a bike thats cool. we can chat later

Bike > Car when it comes to MPG. You see gas prices lately? They are only going to get worse.

U sure?

[SPANISH-RICE]

positive

[bubba]

k just checking

[wishinsky]

lol ya thats what i like about um 55 to the gallon or better... idk iv always been into bikes but idk if am ready to kill myself yet lol.. the only way i probably wont is if i find a nice car for 2 grand.. but umm so what u guys think about the blue and black 96 with the 95 fairings.. not the nicest or stylish bike every but for being 17 and only have 1800. not bad?.. lol dont want to look like a fag driving around fargo so

[dubbsy]

just buy the damn thing

[wishinsky]

alright sounds good

[Slowica]

gas mileage would definately be nice. i almost bought a bike this year but i decided one money pit was enough

[94civicex]

not tyrin to knock bikes but they really dont get as good of MPG as you would think. maybe the 600 are diffrent but my old 954RR barley got 30 and we wont even start on the R1(and thats dyno tuned).
