    I think I've come to the conclusion that...

    I am never going to find the bike I want. I have been looking endlessly for a bike and nothing has panned out. Everything is either on the west coast, mid west, southeast, etc...

    The weather is getting nicer, I'm reading about all these first rides of the season, upcoming track days, etc... and its depressing the shit out of me. So if anyone runs into the following bike for a decent deal (around $5000-$6500), please let me know. Thanks!

    05+ Honda 600RR (Black)
    06+ Yamaha R6 Raven (may consider the 07 red)
    06+ Suzuki GSXR 600/750 (Black, 750 is wishful thinking at my price range and I still can't believe I'm considering a GSXR, hahaha)

    Saw those too...but I'm looking for 2006 Raven (non S version). The 06 RR with the Hotbodies undertail or whatever that thing is looks horrible in my opinion.

    Where is the ad for this one? Is it the Non-S version? If so, I'm interested.

    I'd say broaden your search.

    Go to google and type in "site:craigslist.org *your search terms here*" That will search all of clist, upping your chances of finding something.

    .... you're looking for some of the most popular sportbikes on the planet & you can't find any that "pan out"???

    What are you gonna do when you want something that's a little more rare.... like a *gasp* Ducati.... higher a private investigator?
