So you've got $3500 to spend on a bike

Early ZZR1100s are going for that sort of money if you look around. I think they were the C1 models. Big and heavy but great road bikes.

I have to agree with the RF900 suggestion

What?! It's my thing

What sorta bike would you be looking at?

ooo, Tardme has a 1985 750 Yamaha FZ, that would be pretty groovey!

the 400 in at wild west at the moment, cant remember if its a cbr400rr but looked like it... at $3650 (unless im going blind) i'd haggle with don

that 600 Has a "frosty" look about it--a bit beaten up but still good nick

Some of these could be options...

1. Tidy looking NC30
2. GSXR400, perhaps a little rough
3. 91 ZXR400, cosmetic bruises
4. Perhaps some 2 smoke action?
5. CBR600, maybe haggle a bit
6. Buy my bike!

Heaps of options... and many more still if you wouldn't mind a bit of a project! Let us know what you decide on

VX800....Yeah, I know you've already owned one, but did you put Progressive springs and cartridge emulators in the forks? Tranforms the handling.
Get the Jap import (vibey engined version) and derestrict it. Far more character than any I-4 - and pretty much anything else for that matter.
