    Anyone selling an early-ish model 600 - 900cc bike in the next few months?

    Well ol' zeo gets his full next month (if ol' zeo remembers to book it!). So, as with the territory, when my licence upgrades, so will my bike. The GPX 250 has been good to me, in a back cracking, curled up, cramped kind of way, and I love it so! But it's time for me to not downshift going up a slight hill, or passing a car at sub-speed limit speeds !

    So I thought I would come here, to see if anyone is selling a bike in the very near future.
    My preferences: Well, obviously preferably kawasaki, since I'm an incredible fanboy. But the main features will be comfort and reliability.
    Bikes I have looked at a possible second bike so far:

    Ducati 600ss
    Suzuki RF900
    CBR 600F (quite liked the look of the 97 model, seemed like it may be a comfortable ride, and Honda's seem to hold the reliability throne?)
    Kawasaki ZZR600
    I'm really into touring, and a bike with an arse to handle luggage is a big bonus (hence the RF900), but as it will be my primary mode of transport, it needs to be fairly light for commuting.

    Throughout winter I've seen these hang around the 4 - 5k area.. but as summer comes around it's getting sparse again, not exactly the best time to buy a bike I guess


    Will I get this within my price range? Or is this all wishful thinking?
    Any tips and help GREATLY appreciated, and I guess in a months time, WTS 1990 GPX 250 hehe

    Thanks in advance!

    zeo

    /edit: I should note that speed isn't a factor, but quick off the mark is a big plus.. I don't care too much for top end, I'm more interested in accelleration.

    Got an 96 RF900 . done 26000 MLS (41,000kms) selling FOR $4500 don't use it anymore. No hurry to sell. don't really care whether it sells or not. it's quite nice to have it sitting here but it's just a waste of a bike. I've done about 100-200 kms the last two warrants so that gives you some idea of it's use. If your ever up Wellsford way, call in to Sun Valley Motel if you want a look. cheers. Rob.

    A Little thought: The 600SS is 53hp with a 5-speed box, single front disc, 38mm Mikuni carbs and 41mm USD forks. It does have a nice low 770mm seat height though.

    Perhaps you'd be happier with the later 620 Sport which is 61 hp, also a 5-speed, but with 43mm USD forks, twin 320mm front discs, & 45mm Marelli electronic injection. Seat height is 815mm however. (available black or silver with full or half fairing)
