    help me....need a new bike.

    After selling my monster at the end of last season I've realized how much it sucks not having a bike. So ive saved up a couple pennies and am looking to buy another bike. I have 1500 but can get 2k for something I really want. In not set on any bike in particular so entertain me. I'm just trying to get back on 2 wheels (maybe 1 at times).

    2k? Two thousand dollars, right? Good luck. Guys are buying track bikes to bang around for a price like that. You know if you put down a 2k deposit on a new bike you'll be happier. Maybe a bit poorer, but a brand new bike. Go through the for sale thread and see what's available.

    Although not helpful def very honest post, honesty for 1500-2000$ I cannot think anything else besides an older katana or cbr..

    Of course but not gonna find one for under 2k, I'm still kicking myself for letting mine go for 2400. I needed the money so it is what it is. I'm not expecting a newer streetbike. But I am looking into some 70's ujm cafes. I've found some decent deals on cl but I'm actually about a week or so until I will have the cash.

    That 250 needs rearsets bad, with those clubmans stock peg position will make that a torture rack.

    I might be able to unload my monster for 2k, but I have to run it by my brother, he wanted dibs. You'll need a battery, headlight, wheel spacers, and bars.

    I have a GS300 on here for sale as well, it'd be a fun cafe racer build.
    $1500

    My brother is selling his '82 XJ650. I'll try to find the CL listing, or you can PM me if you're interested.

    Sorry just saw this.


    2k for a bike that can keep up with traffic, but still be used for the track? 1st gen SV or bandit 600.

    I bet you could find an early Bandit 1200 for $2k if you're willing to look hard and long enough.

    Right now is the wrong season-IMO-though.

    Yup wrong time to be looking but I don't want to wait till next year to ride. Seeing all those bikes out there gets me depressed.and besides I can't hold on to money for very long....
