It's a minta! Just needs the steering head bearings replaced. Otherwise, no worries I think...
He's going back home to Russia so this is a genuin sale.
Comes with Hyperpro rear shock and steering damper and ofcourse the Arrow carbon can.
I don't know him but I did check out the bike...

There was a discussion before about this bike and people had wondered why the bearings on such a new bike were already shagged - some said possible wheelie machine....
That bike has been on sale for aaaaaaages

apparently the peg is snapped off one side, and the tyre might be a touch square (apparently), but the exhaust system is bliss.. bit of a bargain tho

IMO it's a typical case of someone new wanting to give bikes a go during summer.
He bought it, made it look cool with all the extra goodies. Then he might have tired a few amature wheelies to see what the fuss was all about and popped the steering head bearings. One really crap landing can be enough to do this even on a brand new bike, it doesn't have to be a thrashed wheelie machine. From what I gathered, he just used the bike to get around town for short trips cause let's face it, who doen't want to impress the ladies around town by rolling in on a very trick bike? Then after a while, he ran out of his luck and droped it while going at 30kmph by doing something really silly like turing into or out of a driveway a bit wrong. Most of you know how easy it is to do this.
Most racers wouldn't bother with hyperpro stuff like the ones on this bike for real racing. You'd normally go for the more top of the line shit but again it's just my opinion. I don't reckon it has been seriously thrashed or raced. A bit abused, maybe but not ridden to it's limits.
Reason for sale is pretty genuine as he's a mate of a mate of mine, and I know he is leaving the country for sure...
But the gamble is still yours if you want to buy it cause I could still be wrong about it all.

I see this bike everyday while coming to work. Its parked near Q.Street. Always wonder who the owner is as I hardly seen that bike move from its place.
Seems he must be a hard worker - early morning coming to work and leaving late..
but it surely is an amazing bike. Would buy it if i didnt get my current bike.
There goes my useless post for the day :)

Here's my useless post of the day. Saw your bike on grafton bridge last week, looked really cool! Would ask for a ride if I had my full j/k :weird:

So how much would it cost to replace the bearings and is there any other damage when it was droped apart from the broken peg?

Some rash on the left hand plastics, not major but the rear has a slight crack just behind the rider seat.

Thanx mate. Maybe once u get your full license and sign a form (saying you owe me your HOUSE if you crash), i would be glad to give ya a go on the bike :)
To be on the topic, this Honda cbr600 looks really nice man. Just the few scratches here n there - but i think taking into account the yr and the kms, its a good buy... so can someone hurry up n get it !!! :)

Steering head bearings will cost ya about 100-150 for most bikes then there is about 1.5 hours worth of laubor so it should be under 300 I think.
Other than the peg, just minor scratches but I saw it a while ago and can't remember everything.

If u dont mind me saying this....
There is few minor scratches on the left hand side of the REAR SEAT - probably like a helmet scratches - but very minor...
and then on the fairings some very minor...
other then that, it doesnt even look as though it was dropped.... i wouldnt have guesed it was dropped..(was it ? )

Saw that, whats the problem? ex race bike, would have been properly maintained, regular oil changes etc, may still have some fast gear on it, whats the problem?

No problem, apart from the bike suffering from *race wear*. Wonder what the brakes, suspension, etc are like?
"catch" ?? Good on the bike shop for listing it as a ex race bike! Probabaly has less wear than the crashed and 'needing steering head bearings' bike originally posted. Just another option, thats all.
Maybe you guys can buy my current bike and I upgrade to the new model cbr like this one. :niceone:

Bidder is only a TradeMe newbie so could pull out?? Be interesting to see the final outcome.Well looks like the Noob didn't buy the bike after all cos it's been relisted here:http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbikes/Sports-tourer/auction-28751643.htm
Now $11,000 NO reserve!! :shutup: Surely there's a scrooge out there amongst you who can pull that much out of his mattress?
Looks pretty shaddy to me.
1. Both buyer and seller has a Russian name.
2. Both gave positive feedback and verified that the bike was sold, yet the bike has been relisted.
:no:

i had called up the owner of the ex race bike..it seemed like a bargain..but to get it to auckland would cost a bit and the bike has its race fairings on i was told and would have to be removed and replaced with road fairings(supplied with the bike)...no registration or WOF...been raced in the NZ nationals once.......thats all the info i got.....
