    FOR SALE: YZF Thunderace

    I've successfully converted a mate from rice to potatoes after he got a taste on the weekend. So he needs to sell his current bike.
    This is one very tidy example of one of the very top of the line crotch rockets of its day.
    Unfortunately there are a couple of very small scuffs on the tailpiece from the use of bungees, which are not visible in the pics. They would be very easily tidied up. The rest of the plastic is in "as new" condition, the fairings had some protective film on them which was only removed a couple of months ago.
    New Conti Road Attacks front and rear.
    No known mechanical issues.
    PM me for further details.

    Not sure if you'd knock him down quite that far.

    OK... she's going on Tardme for $6,500 (if there's enough money in my account). Kber's can have her for a sweet $6,000, I'll adjust the price now.

    This bike still has not sold!

    Tardme price is dropping $500 tonight to match the $6K offered here.

    You guys had your chance... be fast or be last!
