Was poking around out local Honda/kawasaki dealer today and found a non current 2005 EX500 Ninja, only has 2 KMs on it. Was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this bike, I had a sit on it and found it quite comfortable riding position wise. Is this a good bike for a still fairly novice rider?

also, they want $7000 Canadian for it, good price?

i personally think that is a good bike to ride on, especially if you've already been riding. 7000 candadian, so that around 1000 us dollars?


j/k, its about 5500 or so right? I think you could probably get it cheaper , at least in my area.

actually it's about 6000 usd right now

ok, i was completely guessing.


so yea, i'd think thats on the expensive side for that bike. \..

Good bike, for anyone who is into light and flickable or as a learning tool.

But you can but a brand new one in Calgary for $5600. There ain't engough extras in the world to justify 7 grand, unless it comes with a extra bike.....

I'm gonna second this.

I'd ask what carot gold the wheels were plated with. And what grade of diamond they used to make the headlight glass.

If it's Blackfoot Cycle that you are talking about....

Well, from what I hear, this shop is renouned for jacking up prices, but I didnt realize how much un til now. I think they'll be keeping it.

EX500s go for $4995usd brand new. so $5600cdn for one is a damn good price

That was tax and all in though..... Hmmm.... meh, Pipe dream isnt it? *L
