    Yamaha FZR1000

    STILL FOR SALE : Price reduced - this has to sell. Initial price was $4250, then $3950, then $3750. Now, it is $3500. That's a lot of bike for the money! He paid $5500 for it in January 2010. If it gets much cheaper I'll be unable to resist it myself! Anyone want a road legal 1982 DR500 !!! Need cash to buy FZR!!!

    This is my friend's bike and he asked me to try to sell it for him (he doesn't know about this site or TM). He has only had it a few months but now needs some $$$ (don't we all). It has a bit of gravel rash where he fell off in a carpark, and it needs a new chain. You can see more pics on TM. Rego and WoF until July - new WoF should not be an issue. If someone wants it, I'll call my friend so that you can buy it from him direct.

    In what universe was this worth $5500 in January 2010? It's two decades old!
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!

    He bought it from a shop, and there are heaps more in shops at that price. Even 15 year old 250s go for that price in shops. If I had gone with him I would have talked him out of it, but he wanted a bike from a shop for warranty, I guess, as he doesn't know much about bikes.

    This bike is eligable for Pre 89 racing- it's exactly the same as the 89 model

    Nothing for ages and then a sudden flurry of activity over the weekend. Several people interested. First come first served, basically.

    This is just a test as it does not seem to be working for me properly
