Well I did it.

#1 Unread post by SquidKid »

I just bought this 1989 Yamaha FZR400 for $3000 out the door. http://www.clintoncycles.com/pre_owned_ ... eh=1025619


I'll be taking delivery in a few weeks once I've completed the riding course. And of course pics will be forthcoming.

Yaaay! Congratulations.

I'm sure you'll love it.

I've got my eye on another '96 FZR600 right now... :twisted:

at least they show some of the stupider things - accidents and arrests, that go along with all the 'stunts'
still recovering - back to crutches, then walking with a stick, then running - then hopefully riding again!

Thanks guys, I don't plan on stunting anytime soon. Or ever.
