I got mine 3 weeks ago. Mine is a 04, yellow and it had only 2100 miles on it. You won't believe what I paid for it. $3750. The guy was getting married and his wife didn't want him to have a bike. He also threw in a Joe Rocket jacket, battery charger, helmet and gloves. I had a 250 ninja so this bike has much more power. It shifts smooth and handles great. The previous owner put Rentahl bars and aftermarket turn indicators. Couple of ?'s. I don't have a owners manual. What's the load weight? How many miles can you get on a tank of gas? I was playing around on the buttons and it apparantly has a clock. Anything else I need to know? Any windshields available? I would like a sporty looking one, not a large on that you'd see on a cop bike or cruiser. Anyway, I'm loving it and excited to know there are others like me on this forum. I get lots of compliments on the bike everywhere I go.

Let's see... for an 06 US bike, which is is the same, chassis-wise, save for the forks, has a max load capacity of 384 pounds.

There are various discussions about windscreens. It's probably painful right now while Alex sorts out the issues with the board, but do a search. Givi has two models, I think, that a few here have tried and there's a Honda screen, but I think installation is more difficult for it.

Awesome news! and welcome to the forum Bartlettdude!

Welcome. Lots to read here BarlettDude, "Search" works great especially if you check the "Display results as: POSTS" option.

There are screen options... do you have an `04 or and `06?

:welcome Bartlettdude! I got all excited when I saw the title of this thread, as the high school in the next town over from me is called Bartlett High. I thought maybe you were from around here, but glad to have you aboard no matter where you are!

welcome aboard :D

What a great deal! Welcome.


That guy you bought it from needs to grow a pair. Next thing you know she will make him sell his dog and watch nothing but the Lifetime network or Oprah.

Sad :(
