    2003 ZX6rr - any good?

    Hey guys, so im looking at purchasing a new bike, saw this one on trademe, dont want to make a huge thread out of this, jsut want to know some honest opinions on the model or even if anyone has already checked it out.

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=370680981

    Any good? chances of it being a dud?

    thanks a bunch!

    Shit that seems cheap. Take it for a pre purchase inspection and tell them that it has been crashed and you wanna know what else it is hiding.

    Single colour paintjob with no decals, painted frame, replaced visor ...... screams crashed to me. Not saying it isn't perfectly straight etc.... but I'd be going over it carefully.
    Ciao Marco

    You are probably wise.

    My son has had a couple of ZX6's and believes these were bought in just to race in the 600cc class as the 636 didn't qualify.

    The bike is probably OK but why pay top dollar for something that has obviously been rolled, bowled and arseholed.

    His last ZX6 2007 sold on TM for $7500 so not a lot more for a lot newer bike, and it hadn't been crashed.

    He now has a CBR1000 and is a very happy man.

    There are some real good quality bikes on TM and at reasonable prices, apart from the odd dreamer who hasn't noticed current values.

    Cheers

    The guy buys and sells bikes/etc hence the quick turn over.
    If it went through a thorough pre-purchase check OK then why not buy it?
    A hell of a lot of bike for $6k!

    Im not oging to bother with a pre purchase check over for two reasons:
    1. dont want to waste my money
    2. someone else is going to buy it on Wed

    So its all good, i dont really mind, i can wait

    Good on you, dont rush. There are plenty of bikes for sale and you can always bling to suit your needs.
