Is this a good deal for a 2006 cbr600rr?

Ahh cool USD fork its defo the newer model, RR3/RR4's had no midrange the RR5/RR6 was a big improvement.

I snapped the deal up as soon as I saw it for mine lol.

However I saw Superduke the other day with Acrapovic cans. OMG ... it sounds mint! If a devil rode a bike it would sound like the Duke! Same sort of money (well tad bit more) but I would love it. Plus my licence could be safer with a naked bike? I may wait until Xmas than come in with a wand of cash to do a deal.

no no its not.. sooooo much grunt you can fly into 3 figures without even realising... And I have a 46" chest to act like a sail...

ricky t - test drove one exactly the same as that with 1k miles on it yesterday and it almost ripped my arms off post 11k revs. I was on a dealer for £4500 and he was going to service it and replace the battery.

How much is a new 08 one? How much is a 2nd hand 08 one? ...

Thanks for letting me know. Are you thinking of getting a CBR next also? £4500 seems pretty good.

I cannot test ride one until October as the shops insurance will only let 21 year olds test ride. I am 20 but I have been riding for 2.5 years.

I am actually going to be a miser and buy this bike during the winter and at the moment with the credit crunch et al, I may get a better deal still. The Sv is still good but I cannot jusify spending money on suspension upgrades that I will not see back.

A new 08 one is about £7500 I believe. A 2nd hand one - no idea.

It can only be about 6-6.5k for a 2nd hand 08 one then? .. being 08, it is not like it would have done many miles

Its a 2-3 year old bike whatever the mileage and you should pay accordingly.OK so its a CBR but look at what dealers are clearing brand new unsold Kawyamsuz SS600s for and how much they will be come credit crunch winter.I wouldnt be sucked in by the 91 miles thing.I bet the tyres are flatspotted,the battery is fubared,the chain is dry and it never got that vital first service or run in properly.Best put in a museum.

I have found an 07 new shape CBR-rr with 5800 miles on it for £4500, but as I'm still making my mind up due to recent insurance pay-out. I'm not telling you where.

Always liked GSXR's but felt so 'at home' on the CBR-rr, I am not sure which.....

There are loads on ebay and they're not really selling because when things get tough, toys like bikes are the first thing to go. Good for me as I use mine as transport...
