    love this bike and would not be selling it ... but because im getting such a good deal on a custom chopper I half to sell it for a down payment... this bike has only 20,000 original miles... wow.. it does have a couple of minor scratches. but the bike is 9yrs old.. I got this bike from my buddy.. he hit a curb and bent the rim and scratched the plastics so it got a salvaged title.. I had to buy it back from the isurance company.. but its all better now.. I have all the receipts to show iv'e gone through the whole bike and fixed everything... and I added a couple of performance stuff.. the bike has a 167 rhp and 122 ft pnds of trq.... thats more that a new ducati 1098 and those cost 25,000 large. this bike is faster than anything and has the cheapest insurance possible, I pay only 15 dollars a month for it and it still gets 55 miles per gallon... if ou want the nicest bike you will ever own then buy this one ... first person with cash gets it.... will except reasonable offers but no low ballers I love this bike and I don't really want to sell it FIRST PERSON WITH $5,300 GETS IT.... Call me my name is A.J.


    167 rwhp :crazy:
    has to be a scam
    salvaged title for hitting a curb :crazy:
    I would stay away from this looney

    uh... even with Toro's supercharger it gets up to 160 hp at 12,000 rpm. And this guy is claiming 7 more hp? To give him the benefit of the doubt ask for dyno printouts. Or ask for a test drive and try taking off in 4th gear.

    He must have the super rare one, the only 2000 model that made 167hp and eats Ducati 1098s

    I heard about that one but thought it was just a myth passed among VFR riders.

    That one should be worth $53,000, maybe the price was a typo

    I looked closer and he seems kind of nervous sitting on that bike.... from the looks of it he has most likely never even ridden a bike before. :crazy:

    Maybe it does have 167 HP. After all, it is a 5th generation and we all know the 5th generations are the fastest. Especially yellow. :biggrin:

    Just for giggles I sent him an email asking if the bike's still up for sale. We'll see if he responds.
