[inlinefour]

The 1000cc job is exactly the same price as a Fireblade. Its very tempting...

[k14]

[marty]

[SPman]

Waddaya mean, high K's!
At least the fuckin things been ridden - not shut up in a garage and taken out on fine Sundays by some nancy boy, poofta poser!

.....its just run in.....

[matthewt]

The trademe add says 46,000k on the clock but I'm sure they mean 36,000k.

I'm about 90% sure it's my previous bike. It would of been sold as a wreck after my Lewis Pass spill late in 2003. I thought someone in Wanganui was repairing it as a project. It should have no major damage just lots of little things that added up to a big bill. The insurance co. decided to repair it so I traded it on a new Brutale rather than wait for parts from italy.

Inlinefour: Where is a 1000cc f4 the same price as a fireblade ??

They have a place here that is bringing them into the counrty. Had one of the 1 litre bikes on show. I was most surprised when I realised that it was the same price as the Fireblade. PM me if you require more details...

$21995, same price as the blade. That was at the bike show a while back. Sensei, it was a F4, twas it not?

That sounds too good to be true, I know the retail prices for most of the major countries and I can't see how they could get one in so cheap.

Maybe it was not a F4? It was a 1000cc four cylinder bike that looks much the same as the one on TM, although it was completely black. Have not viewed one since, maybe they stuffed the price up? :weird:

[2_SL0]

I like someones question,
"yum"

lmao.

[marty]

thanks for that matt. i'm going over to look at it, and now that i know its history i'm happier

[marty]

I'd wondered if it was yours matthewt - not many others around with your kind of mileage.

There are no stock 1000cc F4 that are black. The closest would be a F4-SPR 750cc which were a dull matt black. They were in limited numbers and quirte expensive so I'd be surprised if it was that either.

If you get serious right down the VIN and I'll see if it was mine. Provided it handles OK then it should be fine. if it turns bad you could always buy my brutale :yes:

John no it was a MZ1000cc twin you must have seen Dude Yea the price was about 22k . Looked like a piece of name parts slapped together . Seen it out round town the other day sounded like Crap . didn't do anything for me in the looks either . That may have solved the mystery Matthewt
Now a 1000cc Brutale would be the go :Punk:

[matthewt]

Not sure if you saw the KTM/brutale thread but the 910cc brutales should be here soon.

Umm, how can anyone possibly confuse the MV for the MZ?
Sex on wheels vs Sux on wheels?
Ohh, I had spin around the block on a $22000 trail bike today, too :yes:
