I had a GSX-R750 that had a wiring harness that looked like spahgetti. I'm pretty good trouble shooting electrical.

It's not a electrical problem. It seems to be a carb, or ring leaks or something of that nature.

PM me. I have a great mechanic that will charge less than ANY shop will. He used to own his own Suzuki dealership in the 90's. His place is on Higley and Brown, but he's the best.

if the scratches are on the frame...you could polish the frame

plastic scratches can be repaired...or you can find replacements at:

Ty sir.. do you think a salvage title is still good. He wants to sell a 2002 or its a 2001 CBR F4I i think for 4200. I looked on kelly blue book and it list value of the bike as 5900-6200. With the scratches on a few spots and the one on the frame. I believe its a good deal dont you?

id have to see it...

ive fixed an FZR600 that was about $75.00 away from being totalled...it was a 1995 (yellow/yellow rims) that was wrecked in 1997...i bought all new plastics for it (they came in black/yellow rims in 1997)...after about 20-30 hours, it looked like a brand-new 97

CBR: there has to be more damage than what hes listing because from what i see, the insurance co. wouldnt 'total' for just those flaws (mine looked worse btw and was only close to being totalled)

hes in phoenix, lets go check it out




R1: that bike is nice, but it will go for more than $6000.00

Yea i wanna go check it out. I tried calling the person but no answer. There is one more day left on bidding. I wonder if he would respond to my email on time. I guess I'll keep trying to call.

Hmmm just got off the phone with him. He said that the bike doesnt have anything wrong except plastics. Also that he owns a shop and have been doing this for quite some time. I forgot to ask about the name of his shop. Anyways, I asked if I can take a look at the bike anytime soon. He said he will be busy for the next couple of days. he assured that the bike is good.

id stick with something with a clean title...plus the insurance for a salvaged title on a bike could be difficult to aquire
