Hey Rick, check this out. ;)

Looks like Michael decided to sell his R6 as well...
http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcy/692898107.html
It's all interesting but I'm still a ways off from doing anything. I'd add the height back to the 675. Maybe lowering the tail only 1" would slow the steering down a bit. Dunno. BTW, what style bike is Michael looking for?
He doesn't seem to really know. I almost imagine him going back and getting another Harley, but who knows. I do think he would get a Monster if he stumbled across the right one though...
I ain't gettin' rid of the Monster.

LOL! That isn't what I was getting at. He had been looking at a few that were posted on CL, but they all wanted more money than he wanted to dish out...

DO IT!!!
The 900 SS guy is completely crackers, even if that was the last year they were made and he doesn't even mention that fact. There is/was one on eBay today that was punched out to 944 and was set up with FCR-41's and lots of other goodies. It'll be had for less than what that guy is dreaming about.
The old Honda doesn't look so bad but you have to stop and consider that there was nothing special about them even when they were new. I know. For three years I assembled every new one of them that were sold on this island. They were the "poor man's 750" except that they were disappointingly down on power and didn't have any handling going for them either. They were smooth though and at the time they made a neat noise. Now that noise is commonplace and the I4's today sound far meaner than the CB500F could ever dream of. The aftermarket parts didn't help much in the power dept. even with full Yoshimura kits. Hugely expensive for the return.
Now this is nice:

Michael took his R6 off Craigslist. What's up? Did he sell it?
Yep. He was just over here and he told me that it sold today. Someone came and gave him the $6G he was looking for...
Even trade! Someone jump on this! ;D
http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcy/697935122.html
yow. how much does he think that "thing" is worth? Yeesh!
Craigslist brings out the strange ones even moreso than eBay. Check SilentBobs thread in the non moto section.

I think we have ridden with that guy. Hey just recently bought the 916 that is sitting in the background and has a thing for Vtwins.
Mac, here is one more thing to tempt you with... ;)
I saw that a couple of weeks ago. Let's see what happens with the T9 for a little while first.
I have no desire to see you lose the 999 Mac, I just happen to like the RCs. And aside from the red front fender, that's a nice example.

umm, eww?
Don't hate! 8)
No worries. A good looking RC51 could be a real contender. I like them even if they are a bit on the wide side. Arlen's (??) is a little on the plain flat black side for my taste. Yes, that front fender looks a little out of place.
Just looked at the pics again and DAMN if that thing's exhaust doesn't look a lot like the Aprilia RSV's.
This is Nic's bike. Been out a time or two with us and it is pretty nice...
http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcy/724583281.html
He did a decent job fixing that tank up, but I don't know if I'd be willing to pay $4k for it, esp. if it's a salvage title. Eh, who knows?
Does it have a salvage title? The add said it was an auction bike, but never mentioned the title being a salvage affair...
Perhaps not. I was assuming a bit, and tired. And stupid.
This is my dream bike:
http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcy/723784797.html
I've always wanted an RC51, but a nice one has never come up for sale until now . . . too bad i've got negative cash flow right now.

But more importantly, does anyone know of anyone else who might want to buy a lightly used '07 S2R800? ;)
List it and hope for the best!
Yea, that is what I was planning on doing. I have been looking around and see lots of 695s and other 800s going for the high seven low eight thousand mark. Too bad we are all the way out in the middle of an ocean. Sure would be easier to sell, and replace, if we were on the mainland.

Ain't that the truth? Plus we'd have a much larger inventory of used bikes to pick from too. It cost me $1,700.00 to have the Monster crated and shipped from Omaha. Cough. Paradise tax. Cough.
$1700? That sucks! I was hoping to see a lower number than that! Mind if I ask who you used to ship it down here?
And for those that are interested, here is a classic BMW for sale:

JC Shipping. That was the price of the crate, shipping the crate to Omaha, loading up the bike and bringing it back to Long Beach and then shipping over here. We went down to the freight forwarder here with a flat bed. I still have the crate (I hope) at my old shop.
I still don't care for the high upright seating on the 'tards. One reason why I don't have one.

Funny thing is, he just moved here from San Diego, works for PACOM (same as me) and has a Triumph. We talked for quite a bit and I turned him on to the local Triumph cruiser guys schedule, so hopefully he can hook up with them.

Of course that 748 looks tasty. It's not the actual bike, it's from a brochure or something. The actual bike could look as good or not.
I didn't necessarily mean THAT 748 looked tasty. But on the other hand, don't they all look pretty damned tasty? ;)
Pretty little Colnago, but a touch short.
Wow. An 848 up for sale already.

He had that bike posted up a few weeks ago, while it was still in SC even. Funny thing is, he didn't lower the price any, and there are more than two other white 848s on Oahu already.

At least he dropped the price, he was asking $13,000.00 before. [laugh]

You know, those RSVs are beautiful, but they really took a step backwards with the current model. They took a unique looking bike and then made it look like a now defunct RC-51. Nowadays, it seems that more and more italian bikes are looking like Japanese bikes.

ugh. I will never throw a leg over an RC51 again. that's like mounting a damn cow.
if I could get 6g for my monster, the 749s would be mine... it's a hot lil'bike
I think the 749 is far better suited to the Island than the 999. If I had to do it all over again that's what I'd pick Ducati wise. But then again I've never ridden one so I have no basis in fact with which to make that judgment, just speculating.

Thought about it. Still think about it. Great bike but costs more than the 750 and that cuts out mods. Costs more to insure too. Meanwhile there's a really nice Aprilia Factory Mille R in LA. That's the idiot side of me talking. [laugh]

$15,200 or so OTD @ South Seas. Kind of pricey?? The only thing better on one of those is that it doesn't have the same potential immobilizer issue as the 999. Maybe it runs cooler??

The license plate area looks like one of those in-air refueling pod thingies. But not bad, considering.
Both the R6 and R1 have had that taillight appendage for years. I think it's the first thing people yank off. You'd think Yamaha would get the message by now. Plus they haven't done anything with those ugly front turn signals either. More money for the aftermarket vendors I guess.
They also missed the boat on the new nose for the R1.

I didn't hear that part since I have all but crossed the Yamaha off the list due to ergonomics & power delivery characteristics. The 2009 website lists the R6 as 414 lbs. wet. The 2008 specs list it as 366 lbs. dry. Not much help there.

I haven't looked today but the guy who is/was selling the 08 750 GSXR has dropped the asking price. He never called me back & I haven't called him to find out if he got it fixed. Another Hmmmm.
I just figured 'clear title' meant it was paid for, no lien. I'm such an innocent [cheeky]

I've loved the looks of the 1098 ever since I saw the first photograph. That design is the Megan Fox of all the current superbikes/sportbikes. I think I'd rate my 750 somewhere around a Jennifer Anniston / Halle Berry. The only issue I ever had/have with the 1098 is the relative plainness of some of the parts compared to the artwork that showed up on the 999. The tradeoff, of course, being price.

Not sure if I will or not, and honestly wasn't able to get that much of an impression of Rich's bike due to the fact that it isn't broken in yet. But, and it is a big but, I found a screaming deal where I could get one (with all the right mods already) shipped here and turn a profit by selling it if I wasn't happy with it.

That was for last Saturday. The day that I was working on cars & bikes until 3:15 in the afternoon. Besides I didn't see the ad until Sunday afternoon and have no idea how the ride went or how big it was. On our Sunday ride Lon had to leave early to go to work. I won't name names but the South African R6 rider had his bike stolen (and the red 2008 CBR1000R was also stolen) and was on a borrowed S4Rs. The cops busted a paint/body shop in Waipahu run by two Vietnamese brothers and found 32 stolen bikes & parts & automatic weapons. See what happens when you leave. [laugh]

HOLY SHIT!!I knew the ride was on the day before, but wasn't sure if anyone had known, or gone, to it.
Found a nice little gem. Teddy, might you rather have this than a 999? ;)

Cool. I can let you have them for the low low price of umpteen gajillion dollars. And if you call in the next five minutes, because we can't do this all day, I will even throw in a bucket of used cat litter! :o

Wow!...when I looked at the one at Domenico's before I bought the SF, it was invoice plus tax out the door...that worked out to about $12.8K and included a factory incentive of $1500 worth of goodies...MSRP was a little over $14K IIRC...the deal killer for me was no test ride.
Just got off the phone with Cycle City down on Nimitz. Turns out they have one of the Super Dukes from the Maui store down there, and will allow test rides. They also have a 950 Super Moto...
I may check it out tomorrow or thursday, for the hell of it...
Well, the lied about the Super Duke. I know because I just got back from there. Might go test ride the 950SM this weekend though. ;)

a motor vehicle dealership lied to you?...say it ain't so... :(
Might have a buyer on the Daytona.
[popcorn] I thought that was already pre-arranged.
Two people had told me that they wanted it, if and when it went up for sale, but I have not been able to get in touch with them over the last three days. I put the bike up on CL last night and got a hit from a guy that wanted to come see it right then; he even went so far to say in the email that he had cash in hand. lol
At the end of the day, the sale depends on how I feel about that KTM...
Found two left over '08 Super Dukes (one black and one orange) at a dealer in LA. They quoted me a price of $8499 out the door stock, or $10,700 out the door with the full Akro evo system and associated map. Even offered to truck it down to the pier in San Diego for me if I wanted them to. ;)
Wow, not a very popular bike, the SD...kind of like a hot chick with really bad halitosis...

Nope. If I get rid of the two vehicles I have now it will be to streamline into one car. So it is either a new(ish) Jeep like thing, a new GTI or maybe a tasty BMW.

GTI
That is the most likely candidate.
:)
I do miss mine...
I can't really say the same as I still have my Mk IV. But one thing is for sure, the Mk IV did not handle as good as it could have. The Mk V was a huge step forward in that department and everyone seems to agree that the Mk VI is even further in that same direction. Plus it sure looks better than the Mk V, both inside and out.
One other bennie is that turbo motors are cheaper to mod, and get stupid power out of. I just wish VW/NA would say whether or not they are going to bring the R-20 here to the states. I would be a bit cross if I went out and bought a new GTI just to have the awd, and more powerful, R-20 come here a year later...
And then there is that M3. [bow_down]
that's only because you (like me) have the VR6. nose-heavy w/that torsion bar rear doesn't make for terribly happy cornering... the 1.8t mkIV could certainly corner a lil'better, as well as making stupid amounts of power (hello APR st.3+)
mkVI is out already??
and sheesh, you're making like an R32 would handle like pooh.
Dude, have you gotten a look at the new Mk VI body? There are three of them at Tony right now. They look SWEET!

Quote from: teddy037.2 on November 10, 2009, 09:37:12 PM

Hell yes it is! The interior is MUCH nicer as well. One thing I always hated about the Mk V was the shape/ergos of the steering wheel. The wheel on the Mk VI is really nice. Plus, the dash looks much better and the door panels are nice as well. Over all it really seems like a winner.
well, there ya go :)
Not to start a hater thread here, but meh. The interior is nice, but i'm not blown away by the body. Maybe it looks better in person.

This is true. I still really like the shape of my Mk IV. I just wish it wasn't getting so long in the tooth. It's been a great car, but it has over 110k miles on it now and I can only imagine the infamous little VW electrical quirks are on their way to visit me.
Quote from: teddy037.2 on November 10, 2009, 09:28:13 PM
and sheesh, you're making like an R32 would handle like pooh.
I've had mixed feelings about the R32, especially the Mk V models. They sure sound the business, but you are dealing with the design/ergos that I don't like, the fact that the engine is a good bit thirstier than the VR6 that I already have as well as the fact that they were only available with that silly flappy DSG slush-box.
There is an '08 R32 down at Cutter VW that I took for a spin the other day. It only has like 1300 or so miles on it (it was a manufacturer's buy back car due to the faulty fuel hose design), is in great shape but they are still wanting like $35k for it.
I don't think the DSG really qualifies as a slush-box...
sure, it's automatic n'all, but it's hardly the tiptronic
No, but there is still a very noticeable delay between shifts, both up and down. Call me crazy (not like you haven't already) but I want the car to shift at the moment I tell it to, not half a second later or when it decides I would be better off in a different gear.
Ok, both of the M3s that I was looking into turned out to be multi (and by that I mean more than three already) owner cars.
bummer, the E46 M3 is a nice car...
I know. I was pretty excited at the idea of one. Plus, the E46 is IMO the best looking 3 series by far!
so pretty if only it was road-legal...

Did you notice how the rear brake pedal has a rubber band slung from the frame? As in, no spring loaded brake return provision on this set up? Also, it kind of looks like the piston is being driven into the master cylinder at a bit of an odd angle. That might be due to the way that individual bike is set up, but not really something I would be interested in having on my personal bike...

Doesn't the spring tension from the caliper take care of that? I kinda figured the rubber band was there because it was only a temporary bolt-up for pics.
but if the weight of the lever is enough to keep the plunger in contact on the MC, wouldn't that be a bad thing?

He says "I consider myself very reliable" and he's selling it because "this is what I do". Hey, if he can sucker somebody into paying 27k for that, then good for him. I assume that's what he means by the "This is what I do" deal. twat.

Darkwing knows the guy better than I do. Not a bad bike at all, depending on how he had the paintwork done. The bike is definitely not abused. May PM you on it.
Yea, I have (sort of) known Rich for a couple of years, and he works in the same building as I do. I know he doesn't ride the bike all that much, and goes really easy on it when he does ride it. One thing to keep in mind though, it has been down before, and it suffered some damage (mostly cosmetic) to the left side. The trans also got stuck in second gear when it went down as well. Just wanted to make sure that you know the gouge on the bike before you put an offer on it, assuming that you do...
You think maybe 12K considering the extended warranty and all? The left side damage was very low speed wasn't it? Like barely above parking lot speed?
Thanks for the heads up Darkwing - i think 13.5 is high but yea, 12 is more reasonable - the coverage is nice to have, but i wonder what the warranty would do about the bike having been downed before...
sucks really, i keep finding great bikes but theyve all be low speed downed on one or another side... i'd like to get a clean bike without having to get a new one... I'm still curious about the hypermotard 796 - i dont think there are any in stock yet, but i want one, and i suck at waiting haha....
I don't think the low speed down will affect the warranty in any way. You could check with Will on that one but in this case it's all very minor. Gives you some leverage but in actual fact this bike wasn't hurt bad at all.
All of the cosmetic damage on that bike was fixed, and it looks pretty good in person; if you can get past the fact that he tried to make it look like a 1098R. And Mac is right, the bike was going very slow through a round-a-bout when it went down. I cannot imagine that the extended warranty would be put into jeopardy at all by the that.
it looks like ive got a few more leads to follow...

Good going Anne! Looks like it's a bit rashed on the rear cans, the seat cowl, right mirror and maybe a bit more that we can't see well enough. It either got grabbed up or the seller had a change of heart. Too bad that it was dropped at such low mileage.

anyone in the market for a shock? too bad i'm not that heavy [roll]

QuoteFor Sale is an Ohlins DU515 3-way shock for the Ducati 1098 / 1198 / 848. This is an upgrade shock, better than what comes standard on the 1098s or 1198s. There are less than 2K miles on this shock.
The spring rate is the "34/100" Which puts it as 10Nm, or 10.19 Kg. This should be good for riders 180 - 200 pounds, IIRC.
New from Kyle this shock is $750, click.
I'd like $550 for it.

Yep, the TTX is a lot sexier for sure and easier to adjust rebound because you don't have to get through that hole in the swingarm. That said the TTX lends itself to track use where you might be riding on different tracks all the time and want to have the easier adjustment access. For street riding once you get the DU515 dialed in where you want it you almost never have to mess with it again. That was my rationalization anyway. Theoretically that left me with more money for other mods but I'm still trying to figure out where that money is........

the current owner bought it at the beginning of sept, so i'm not sure why he's selling is so quickly. on another forum he says the wife wants to ride w/ him. just seems weird to sell it after a month and half.

Those are on my watch list but nothing is going to happen real soon. The 620 has to go first. I need to find out which, if any, suspension pieces swap out from superbikes to the Streetfighter and then the 848 would have to sell. No extra money can be added into the deal so all monies received from the sales plus all the old, spare parts sales has to cover the next bike, if there is a next bike. Hypermotard S's aren't out of the picture either but so far I prefer the handling and the power of the Streetfighter over the motard.

I understand the desire, but for my tinkering around the monster still suits me fine. Besides, the wiff lets me get away with
almost anything, but a bike upgrade is pretty much impossible.
I don't want to insult Streetfighter owners but I consider this a lateral move and not an upgrade. Like I said, nothing is going to happen fast, if it even happens at all.

A 696, well ........... it's not even on the site anymore.
Of course lots of folks will have a field day with my post when I put the 848 up. I'm thinking, "why bother", considering the investment already spent and even the upcoming service but you never know..........

I am seriously considering it. I have yet to figure out an asking price but I reckon it will be flexible depending on how many mods the buyer would like to retain. The overriding factor is that the price can't go too low. My friend with the Hyper S doesn't want to sell it for the average going price so that's out. The 848 + goodies would have to sell high enough to be able to move to a Streetfighter without incurring extra expense. Therein lies the rub. I wouldn't mind holding onto the 848 but I have some arthritis that's starting to show up and it affects the comfort a bit. Soooo we'll see. I can always post up on CL and see what happens.

I'd be very happy with a good used Streetfigher so a new one isn't the main plan. I'm going to ask 15K/offer for the 848 and then wait.

Yes I do. I can't be looking at buying another Ducati though, not unless it comes with an alloy tank. Would seem kind of strange with me doing that, seeing how I am one of the named plaintiffs in Izaak's class action. :P
No serious bites yet. I wonder why? [laugh] If this keeps up I'll be forced to put an Ohlins damper on it. [moto]
Brandon says "That bike is made to ride, not to sell!"
I've given thought to getting an aluminum tank for it but I'd need a pretty hefty Christmas bonus to do that. Then again there's a certain 560SL transmission that needs an overhaul. :-\

The bike is already sold!
The former owner / seller is in the shop today with their MiniCooper and told me that someone bought it 40 minutes after it was posted. Guy paid $7k cash no questions, no negotiating.
Guess you have to move pretty fast when a good one comes along. [moto] I'm bummed a bit because he didn't call me first like I asked him to do when I first saw it and they said they might sell it one day. Gave him a little bit of a hard time but then I didn't have 7k spare change anyway. [roll] ;D

I can if you want me to. I am in the process of negotiating some enclosed garage space for the bikes so they're not sitting out in "open" garage I've got them in now. If that happens there'll be more than enough room, and I should be able to get it on a 'tender as well. Just let me know.

Not that bad of a deal, but you can find them for less. Those are the same guys that I was looking at buying the left over '07 SM from. They wanted ridiculous money for that thing. I even told them that I was looking at the SD for MUCH cheaper in California, but they still wouldn't budge on the price (they had it marked at $11000). We all know how that one worked out. ;)

Might? Dude was hitting the pipe pretty hard before he priced that one. Mine has quite a few more miles than that, but I would probably let it go for not much more than he's asking...

"none around this clean" and "one-of-a-kind bike" seems kinda contradictory. If it's unique, of course there are none around that clean - there should be none around at all!

They never could figure that out. I was quoted $10K on three separate occasions, but they never would even talk about actually selling it when I went to throw money on the table; thought they'd be able to sell it on eBay and make a killing from who used to own it. [laugh]
Needless to say, the bike sat there for a very long time in the back of their warehouse.
Dude used exactly the same line as the other SC from a few days ago:
"This link will tell you all you need to know about how this design came about and what is special about this one-of-a-kind bike"

The link is not working for me. If that is the Pearl White one with the single sided swing arm isn't it a bit of a stretch to call it a 2008?
944 motor with hi comp, the bike was made by Norm And Jeff Brown in 2008 (frame and all). therefore 2008
and it still is NICE but now it can use a little TLC ... that's why its only asking 5k.
Its got a ALU. clutch basket W/new friction plates.
28mm slave cylinder. Etc, etc, etc...

If I want a Katoom like that I can get Fred's bike. You remember Fred's racer/street modified don't you?
Is that the total loss one that you mentioned before, or is he one of the guys that used to hang out at Varsity? If it was the total loss bike, I never actually saw it.
It's the total loss system one with the token lights. One of the very last, if not actually the last, bike to make it through conversion to street before the DMV cracked down hard on that action. It is full on race motard through and through and I'm going to get to take it around some of our favorite places soon, maybe. Fred has an up and coming mainland touring adventure on a Gixxer 750. He and some buddies are riding modified superbikes all across the country.

It would take the KTM plus CASH. Plus, this deal, as sweet as it would be, will only take you further away from a F4RR.
Now you've got me starting to lust after the RR. Dreams are what keep old men going. [laugh] [laugh] If only I lots of spare dough. [laugh]
The RR is a fantasy. And even if it becomes a fantasy realized, it is still FAR more bike that I can use around here. There is just something that draws me in for that bike, almost like an addiction...
Your 848 would actually be the perfect bike for the roads that I ride up here.

There's a few things I don't see, like headlights for example.
It has headlights. Or what is trying to pass for headlights. They are small and I don't know that they would pass for legal in Hawaii. Not in my Inspection Station anyway. I'll stop right there.
Whatever... I like it! I made it! I raced it!
you criticized it. (what else you got?)
Ya know its this type of BS that makes me wana give up going for rides with some people. Like people who assume things.
1) like when someone assumed I didn't have enough gas to complete a ride.
2) like when someone assumes my race bike is made up of cashed parts.
the crack category. ok what a dick hole thing to say.
Some of you people are some real jerk offs! You all can go on with your Ducati party with out me.

Ya I know I cant spell. im humble about this
I know bikes ... someone says something stupid Im gonna correct them.
If you took any of my statements as being hateful then I'm sorry that you misunderstood the intent. I'll not get into any reciprocal bashing.
I'm not exactly a newbie when it comes to working on motorcycles. I got started working in this business in 1970. That's also when I got licensed as a State Vehicle Inspector. Big whoopie do. However, I might also know a thing or two about what passes and what doesn't. Your bike would be pushing it. It might be able to pass, might not. To my eye, more likely the latter. There are specs that would have to be satisfied. That bike also needs a Reconstruction Permit to be legal here. That's not hate. That's fact. Other than that I've not said one bad word about it. If you think otherwise then you must have some awful thin skin but there I go again assuming something. [roll]
Whatever Jeff. Don't let me rain on your parade. Over & out.

Some folk know you have a good history in building, but the craigslist reader will not likely know that. I would bet Carbon doesn't know that, and the pics don't sell it. I would be happy to take some good photos of it if you'd like (free), but that still won't tell the whole story. maybe link to the other builds?
The guys here aren't generally malicious - it's unfortunate it got to this level.

It's been parked inside the waiting room since September apart from one Saturday where I fixed the brake lights (changed a bulb) and took it down for a Safety Inspection.
He rode the red one around the parking lot today so we know he can at least touch the ground while riding. The former owner is shorter than he is so it should be no problem. He's looking forward to going out for some rides but that won't be until September when he gets back from three different trips. I've already put Gloria on notice that she will have to break out her red jacket and helmet. Told her that she will like it better than the Harley and the old Monster. ;D [evil]

Think so. Weren't they the red topped ones from a 996?
They have red and blue adjusters - one pair was from a multi or some such, the other set was from a 9xx. I think I installed the 9xx forks because they were longer and I wanted to be able to put the clip ons above the top triple. Or something like that. ???

First, thank you for that image. I looked at the cat immediately and started contemplating.
Second, good point. When Teddy and I rented BMWs in California, he (on the 650) had more than a little trouble keeping up with me (on the 1200); even had some trouble passing. hmmmmmmmmm....

but at the same time, i like the project, and i am ready for the next one, i may just pick up something old and make something out of it. but at the same time it would be nice to be the guy who buys my projects than myself, who obsesses over them, finishes them, then sells them. oh well

http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcy/2607281987.html (http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcy/2607281987.html)
I've seen that & I quasi "know" the guy from Ducati Spot. He must think that he is one of two 848's with the all pearl white fairing as opposed to the flat black bottom section. Can't be talking about 848's & 1198's combined because all of the pearl white 1198's had the full paint job on the fairing. As far as I know there were no 848's delivered that way. Can't speak for the fact that some might have been repainted after delivery.
But one of only two of any sort on the island, sorry...............

That it would however there might be an issue with the rear swing arm bolt size. Dunno exactly, maybe not but that's actually the least of it.
What bothers me more is that I'd just be compelled to tear down the engine and send the crankshaft & side case over to Ben Fox. It'd have to have the crank balanced, lightened and knife edged. Then I'd have to get Carrillo rods & have the clutch side case vented. It goes on & on before it even gets back to installing in the frame. [roll]

Albeit slowly. I am mulling over the logistics. This has a potential of a rather nasty Frankenstein 848 that could surprise some 1198's. It wouldn't make more power but the power delivery could be quite interesting. Especially considering that there would be a decided lack of electronic rider aids. [roll]
I have to balance this against lots of other options including the possibility of getting lost on the mainland for a couple of months whilst riding around on a certain Beemer. [Dolph]

To make it even nastier, find a way to replace the bodywork/lights with skins from a 748. Then you'd really raise a few eyebrows.
[evil]
True. Then I might even be able to see the road at night. :D
I don't need to go off on a 1098 engine project. Got a ride on Majdi's 1198 over the weekend and while that is a super nice bike I don't think the amount of power increase warrants the expense & time that such a project would consume. To be sure the big engine is faster and yanks harder but for my style of riding there isn't a justifiable difference. I thought there would be that epiphany like I experienced when I went from the 900 Monster to the 999. I guess I've gotten so used to the 848 power that the next jump up isn't as earthshaking.
Plus there may be something a bit odd about the deal. When I called the guy about the engine he had to ask which engine because he has six engines for sale. [roll] The 1098 & a bunch of I4's. Hmmmm......... I thought it would be more like he had a 1098 which was totalled and he was parting it out.
Did he speak with a Vietnamese accent?
Almost no accent at all.

You're probably right on that... ;D
See I liked his bike just fine. Actually, more than fine. Mine might handle a hair quicker but that would be a fine hair and might only be due to overall weight, a slight diff in suspension set up and tires. His bike actually seems less hot on the butt & legs than Emile's 1198. Definitely has more power than mine but it's not an outrageous difference. I think the BMW S1000RR seems faster due to the noise at high rpm and because of the different power rush at the higher revs. All things being equal if I were to choose between my bike and an 1198 again I'd get the 1198 just cause it's that little bit better. Am I sad because I have an 848? Not in any way. I'm totally good with it. [Dolph]
Quote from: 'fighter pilot on October 10, 2011, 10:51:12 PM

I LOVE Rick's 848...for the personalized looks and suspension setup. I felt the bike flicked into the corner faster w/ less input and held a more predictable line much better than mine...at least it gave me more confidence. It sounds strange, but the handling felt like a light road bike (bicycle) instead a ~400 lbs motorcycle (even though it's only ~11lbs lighter than the 1198).
I'll take Rick's advice to change tires...and will try the Q2's when it's time for new shoes. Meanwhile, I'm keeping my eyes open for a reasonably priced & used Ohlins rear-shock (off of an 1198S) and will have Dan Kyle revalve/respring.

Already looked at that one, more for myself than BME, but it is very rough. That bike has lived more than it's fair share of life outside up the windward coast and then spent time on the KBay lemon lot. It was covered in corrosion for a while, so bad that the clutch had to be replaced. The guy that is selling it now got a lot of it off but you can still see pits all over the frame. :( The tank has two scratches & there's chips in rear wheel white paint. He wants at least $6500 by tomorrow or he's shipping it to Pennsylvania......... Aloha.......
It's sad to see how much damage the salt air did to the bike...but it was definitely an eye catcher sitting there from a distance.
There's an HP2 Sport for sale up here if your interested. I could assist I getting the shipping arranged.

I'll keep that in mind. Boss-ski just took off on another trip for 3+ weeks and is taking the MSF class as soon as he gets back. He still hasn't ridden either one of the R1100s except for a 2 lap spin in the shop parking lot on the red bike. [roll] I imagine he'd be ripe for one of those Sports.
If I end up going the BMW route it'll likely be getting the red one from him or a new S1000RR.

LOL...interesting craigslist post! There are rumors that AMG's division of Mercedes Benz may take over Ducati, as they have been heavily sponsoring Ducati race teams. I don't see legacy Ducati models suddenly increasing in value...on a positive spin, I think it may improve Ducati's quality assurance program. Again, "if" it happens and is managed well..I think Italian styling and German engineering would be a great marriage!

It's not on consignment...thanks for the catch. The seat was sold to David 2x weeks ago. As for the price, I changed it to 12,500 w/ the Termi's & ECU. I think it's a fair price, but I'm open to feedback...is it high, low or just right?!

12.5K sounds good with the pipes. Leave it at that & see who bites. It'd sort of be fitting if you sold it to Ben but you'd have to make him cover the shipping. ;D ( Of course I know someone who could hold onto the bike for a bit while he arranges for said shipment [evil] )
Does that mean you'd sell the cans/ECU for a grand? I don't know if the cans would fit the 848 pipes but if they did I'd be real interested. I'll do some checking.
BTW -- when you changed the ad you left a misspelling where you said you were selling the bike to (ato) make room for another bike. No worries.... pretty typical for CL [laugh]
I'd put 848 skins in it.
The cans should fit!! ------ All the Akrapovic, Leo Vince and Arrow cans fit right up to all the models. Only the ECU is different & I can deal with that separately.

I wish I read your post sooner. I have a possible interested party that saw it last night. If he doesn't come through, we can work something out for the cans. I'd rather see you enjoy them, especially since you help us so much with our bikes.

The Paso was the bike that made me realize that Ducs were something unique and special.
Even today, a Paso will stand out in any crowd. I wouldn't want a 750 but this is a 907 - a totally different animal.
It's sexy as hell.

What a shame. A real good bike for sure and even better with the mods....... but............ absolutely, and I mean absolutely, zero support from the local dealer. Even that recent 690 Duke looked sweet but, again, no support for the road bikes from the local dealer. Dirt bikes.... that's a different story but for road bikes I think you have to go to Maui...... or maybe it's a toss up ....... a friend of mine had a Super Duke over here for a while getting fixed because they wouldn't/couldn't fix it in Maui, even though it was sold there ......... no matter........ local dealers have no love for the street bikes [thumbsdown] [thumbsdown]
That RC8 belongs to Justin's friend, that came out with us once or twice all those years ago, and there's nothing limited about it at all. The number brought into the states the he mentioned is completely inaccurate. He's also smoking some really strong crack asking that much for it. You can get a NOS model, with the improved engine heads, for less than that these days.
Now as far as the 690s being supported by... Whatever their name is; it can be done. The Duke has the LC4 motor in it, which is in a few of the previous model dirt and dual sport bikes that the guys in Kaneohe were set up to work on.

I thought Justin's friend rolled that RC8 into a ball.........maybe not? ? ? But, you're right, plain old orange RC8 is no big deal at all. They are almost giving them away now, figuratively speaking of course. No help at all that KTM dropped their briefly lived superbike AMA racing program, if you could even call it a program.
I know Domenico's works on the LC4 dirt version. Thought they didn't support the fuel injection road models. Never really pressed for accurate info on that as they weren't even interested in bringing in the road bikes.
I've seen an RC8 serviced at South Seas a couple of times. I wanted to rent the bike at Mid Ohio to play on the track, but my timing was off. The feedback from a few riders was it's easier to ride than the 1198, but has slightly less power.
Got any more bites on your 1198?

DRKWNG would be best qualified to answer. My take is that they are just like highly modified Monsters. The Paul Smart versions and the Mike Hailwood replicas are far better and more collectible/cool but then, to each his own. As far as out and out street racers go you'd be better off with an actual 900SS/1000SS than an SC. But, again, that's my opinion and you know what they say about opinions. [laugh]

You see, if you have never ridden the original version, or anything like it, then it's only highly imaginary. I doubt the horsepower claimed numbers even knowing how much you can crank out with high comps and radical porting.
It's kind of like having a fantasy one night stand. You'd never want a long term relationship and you'd never take it home to meet Mom & Dad. But, hoo boy, what a night it'd be if you could only survive it. [evil] [laugh] [evil]

The add was deleted, so... What model was it?
Here's the thing with the SC series bikes. They are fun, but like Rick eluded to, they require some tweaking to really get the best out of them. The front suspension on the stock bikes is not the best in the world, nor are the front brakes. And the wheels are pretty heavy; more so on the GT bikes as they use steel rims. But that being said, throw some cash at them to right those woes and you will have one fun bike. Well, if you can tolerate the rack-like riding position that is. At the end of the day though, they stir my soul in a way that few other air cooled Ducs do, so...

Not quite. Having ridden a Beta in the dirt he wants to make a street legal supermotard out of one. Not sure if he has a 450 in mind or the 520 but I think he said the 520.

The 1198 ad has been around for a while. Our friend's bike is actually a better deal but no one seems to be biting right now. :(
While that particular model Aprilia has always been a good one the owner is a bit in la-la land when it comes to price. For not too much more than that you could get a RSXV4. [roll]

At least there are some humorous ads. Like AutoSource wanting to sell a 1198S with 17k-18k miles for $16,000. [laugh]

That Desmo fairing needs to go on a 848 or SBK.
Why...a very good question.
That Fairing on a 900 SS!! [Dolph]
A Monster is a Monster is a Monster. You can do all kinds of things to it but it's still a Monster and you just can't make it a Superbike. I kind of learned that the hard way. The Monster is a cool bike and you can make it all kinds of cool but you can't make it a Superbike, no how.

seems like maybe the turn signals would work better facing forward though?

I saw the turn signal thing too. Also, how hard do you think it'd be to get used to shifting with the right foot?
I know a few people down in that area if you want me to ask them to go check it out.

Few bikes of that era even had turn signals so those may be some sort of add on or weird Italian design attempt at the time. They might even be intentionally faced rearward even though they be front mounted.
The right side shift one up three down is not too hard to get used to. Oddly enough the left rear brake was harder for me to adapt to when I was jumping back and forth between Japanese bikes and British bikes back in the Stone Age.

All trade ins. That 848 is sold and so is the 1098. Have a really nice KTM RC8 for sale too.
So AutoSource ended up with that KTM. See they drank the Limited Special Edition Kool Aid too. [laugh] [laugh] Rare maybe but not a special edition.

You know people ever'where.
If someone is truly close and interested n checking it out, that would be spectacular, but there's only 2 days left on the auction, and it's middle-of-nowhere northern TN.
Don't know if you ever knew him, but Sammy (one of Anne's friends) lives in Johnson City. An old friend of mine from pre-military days lives near there as well. He's into cafe bikes, so...
That's just crazy! That's like saying you know two people in, umm, Johnson City, NY. Which I do. I need to sit down now.

You do know that you can always ship it on Uncle's dime, right?
Going to Fort Polk, LA to train some folks for a while. Should be a nice change of pace.
We used the gubment to ship to the island, but me being bike less is a temporary thing. This is to cover expenses and soforth.

Not necessarily. My white Dainese is a 52. I ended up getting a 50 for my non-perf, and the fit is much better suited to me. I think the only thing that you would have to worry about is sleeve length Rick. Might want to take a look.

I generally wear Dainese 54 or 56. Usually the 54 but some 54's have sleeves that are too short. Some AlpineStars 54's are too tight and short. A Euro 50 is out of the question.

I'm guessing it was part of a lunatic's estate, and the title says it can only be ridden on Molokai.
I was coming back from Maui riding shotgun in a Cessna 170 and got a good look at some roads. There is a nice looking twisty section of coast road on south east Molokai. Have no idea how good the surface is but it's way out in nowhere land with no traffic. [Dolph]
It has 20k miles but the owner gave me a link to some photos and it looks incredibly clean. It's a divorce thingy and since a Hawaii judge went as far as awarding MY CLOTHING to my ex I wouldn't touch the bike. Otherwise.......

That is a nice bike. Gene, what's his turning radius like with those clip-ons? I haven't seen anyone put c-o's on a SF before, and had wondered how much you would have to adjust the steering stops.
Basically a 3 year old bike ( almost ) with over 10,000 miles and the base model. No way someone is going to pay $13.5K. When I was looking for a SF a year or so ago I was finding S models with low miles for $11K-$12K. Unless he drops the price he'll be keeping that bike.

No real link to it. It's owned by a guy I met through work, and not really advertised. Part of me really wants it, as it is the Tamburini classic and has the testastreta motor (i.e. not plagued by the flaky rocker nonsense of the 996), but I'm really not sure if I want another bike with 6000 mile service intervals.

Have you done that, personally? I have.
Apart from that, moving from a 6,000 mile interval to a 7,500 mile interval was a marketing move and has nothing to do with the tech side.

Yes I have. I found that the gap was held more consistently, no exception. The longest I saw one between valve service was 10k miles and it was spot on. Some expansion from the openers, but not much. Not enough to fix. Best $300 mod ever.
And yes, the 6000 to 7500 interval is partly marketing (and partly the newer belts' life). However, that does not take include MBP collets, which easily can extend that period.
Which bike did you install the MBP collets on? I think this works better & easier on some more than others.

I've done it on several, including friend's bikes. Pantah 650, Monster 800, and a 996. The 996 is the only one that isn't mine.
Without going into a lot of detail, and some potentially rancorous discussion ( not necessarily between you & I ), suffice it to say that the MBP collets may not be needed on the newer testastretta engines. At least according to my experience. Others mileage may differ.
Anyhow, the service interval should not be an overriding concern for DRKWNG.

Oh god. Don't move there.
LOL....why?
Thats where I moved from 32 yrs ago....for a 6 month surf trip to Oahu.
I loved it down there [thumbsup]
It's so...
Flat...
Yeah....it is flat!!
But I do love the Inter-Coastal waterway & the cost of living.
And it seems the roads are SO much better than Oahu's.
I'll give you the cost of living bit. But... [puke]

In case anyone is interested in a great set of Alpinestars GP Pro gloves...I'd snatch them in a second, but I wear a size large in that glove.

As good as that one looks I try to steer everyone away from a 748. The 749 is light years better, esp. the engine. 748's are pretty looking but that's about the end of it.

Knew what it was before I even clicked on the link. ;) That's Obie's old bike. He sold it to this guy not even a year ago I think. The guy told him it was going to be used as a display in a hair salon. [roll]
^^^^^
Nice decoration for the salon.
An acquaintance's boyfriend bought a F4 about a yr ago too
He owns a tattoo shop on Kapahulu....thought it might be his
Out of curiosity, what did Obie go to from the MV?
just picked up this nice seat for the SS

My bad. That's the one.
As far as I know Obie was / has moved to the mainland but might be back someday. I don't know that he went to anything but he regretted selling that bike and wants another one or maybe a new F4. ?? ??

The whole "rare" thing just annoys me. That seat must be "rare" because it's the only one that his ass has sat on.
I saw a Corbin seat for the FE/SP mono saddle. Seller was wise to state "you can buy these new for $320" etc. Bidding went all the way up to $310.. ???

Manufacturer's statement of origin. It's what you need to register a new bike that's never been titled or had its info submitted to your local DMV by a dealer.
Regardless though, you can still find those around. Two dealers in this area have them.

It's not the bike's fault the bolt fell out. I'd look at whoever was working on the brakes. BTW Danny Eslick & company are doing just fine with one front caliper & disc.
I didn't say it was a great bike but it could be fun.
Not to get into Buel controversy but I agree with Mac on the mechanical fault. I use Vibra-tite VC-3 on most bolts to prevent vibration problems. I use thread lockers in many instances but the VC-3 has better properties against vibration.
It's always the bike's fault when your dealing with a buell. Poor bike is so ugly that it wanted to kill itself out of shame.

Look at this way. For a Harley, it's pretty decent looking. [laugh]
Wow, pretty easy to criticize from over there.
In this case the work of an iconic cyclist who's career included dirt, street and racing bikes with a reputation of thinking outside the box in the form of engineering advancement. IDK how much Erik was involved in the aesthetics of the machines because his focus was the performance of individual parts.
Not an easy task to design, tool and bring a machine to market against an entrenched group of suppliers so although I'm not a fan I definitely applaud the effort.

yeah, and the last one out of the gate before Harley dumped them actually looked pretty slick imho
(of course, he dumped the 900 yo harley turd engine too.. )
Pretty easy to criticize from anywhere. I never said anything derogatory about his mechanical design skills, just that the bikes are ugly as hell.

You know, you might be surprised, but he could probably get that price if the bike wasn't down there. I've been following the market on these, and they're only going up in value. Granted this one isn't an '06, but I've seen those sell for up to fifteen thousand with over 10K miles...

That could be one of our not so regular forum members former bike. Ken, maybe, ? who lived out in Waianae and used it as a commuter bike, traded it in, consigned it, with plans to get a Panigale?
Who knows what happened after that but it has the right amount of miles to be the same bike??
I think Ken's 848 had a red frame...

He had a white one though didn't he? No red frames on white bodywork until the Evo came out. We could go back through the archives. Computers have better memory than I do.
I thought it was that flat white with red frame/wheels...maybe I'm thinking fo another 848... ???

Engine won't crank over, and it was dropped on
The left side, I'm going to go look at it in a few hours.
To see how bad. On the plus side the battery was going bad
When i traded it in. After 3 days if not on the battery tender
It wouldn't start. Only 1k miles more I'm thinking might still be the
Original battery.
and again...... [popcorn] [popcorn] [popcorn]

he didn't say in his email that it was totaled out or stolen only that "the left side is cracked but the frame is straight and no visible damage to the engine"
and they did the 15k service on it around 18k miles before i traded it in and it still had 2 years left on the extended warranty that was supposed to have been transferred to the new owner... so how bad could it be ???
the wife just rolled her eyes [roll] and walked away when i told her i might want it back ;D

BTW......
I spoke to the owner of the 848. He got the bike just a month ago from the "Auction" with a salvaged title attached.
He said the bike was dropped resulting in cosmetic damage but no frame damage.
The bike has never run since he has owned it....he thinks it is an electrical / charging issue. [popcorn]
He never returned my txt or calls :'(

I've no doubt that this is a clean restoration but I don't think it 's worth it. Maybe he'll get what he's asking, maybe not.

Once I graduated from the small Hondas of the time the forerunner of this bike was the first real big bike that I started to ride . It was my friend's 350 Victor that I had free rein to. Funky. Taught me how to kick start and bump start. Really nothing to shout about.

the guy txted me this morning that if i wanted to see the bike its going to be in Waikiki tonight. then he calls me and says its still in Aiea if i want to come look. but he tells me he is leaving monday and needs the bike gone tomorrow. [bang] if only he would have called me back last week when i had time to go to the bank and get the money i might have been able to work something out. now all the FHB branches are closed and i cant get anything till the 26th [bang]
anyways if anyone has a spare $3k laying around and a 848 battery this might be a decent deal for ya. I'm pretty sure if you throw in the battery she will start right up since the charging system was replaced around 15k miles and the battery thats in it is the original that came with the bike ( i think).
and he is leaving island and needs it gone ASAP! (my favorite kind of sellers)

on a side note. almost two weeks later the 848 guy finally emailed me back with the very eloquent response of "come by and check it out at Aiea." Answering no questions, providing no name, point of contact, or anything. He must REALLY want to hold onto that bike!

I've heard the Mille RSV with twin aftermarket cans and boy did it sound good. Made the 999 sound anemic. There will be lots more exhaust choices for the 675 than the Aprilia at this point. If I were to buy a midsize sport/superbike the 675 would be pretty high up on the list. But it won't have the torque of the Mille. But then you could toss the Daytona around whereas the Mille would be a bit heavy handed.
Yeah the Mille is a big & wide bike; where the 675 is skinny
Yeah I am leaning towards the Triumph
We will see
Hope to go see it Wed
I loved my old Daytona. Shame I didn't realize how much I liked it until after it was gone.

Pretty amazing prices on all brands. Pirelli's, Michelin Power Road 2CT and street Power One's. Bridgestone S20. All great prices if these tires are not "seconds".
My Q2's are from them, thus I got the email on the promotion. ;-) They are quite good with reasonable shipping price. [thumbsup]

nice
Hey Carlos, when did you pick up the 998?...
still at the shop while legal paperwork still moves along, slowly . . . since the owner at the time of being 'informed' his property was being "seized" to cash a debt, his attorney delayed the process about a month, the judge ruled in favor of the shop, since he had NOT answered to the shop in any of the 'at least' 3 calls the shop made to him regarding the bill . . .
I offered the shop, $$3500.00 but, will pay half in cash and half in "goods" . . . Shop owner, then has made a counter offer, just $1750.00 . . . 3799kms . ..
So, at this time, I had to "surrender" the bike again to the shop and not touch it until "pink slip" comes out on shop's name to then spend about $5.25 and 25mins at DMV to put it on my name !!!

I guess the owner has eyes on sth else? I were totally get it if I don't have my monster.
He might.
Actually, I've already turned down an offer for $12.5K, so I'm not too worried. There's a guy local to me that wanted to know how much, so he could talk to the bank. I told him the auction's reserve is set at $14000, so...
Never thought he'd sell that one but then again it's more marketable than the KTM. ;D

Very much so, and that's exactly why I'm not being flexible on the price.
Having the advantage of time is always a plus and it seems that's in your favor.
IIRC you were struggling with the ergonomics. Is that part of your decision or did you work past that?
There are several (smallish) reasons leading to the possible sale of that bike, with the ergos, ironically enough, being the least of them. My back and wrist issues will most likely cause grief with any bike, but the SC stretches me out (better on the back than being hunched over) and the clip-ons are set at a fairly "natural" angle for me, and do not cause as much lateral stress on the wrist as the bars on the KTM.
More than anything though, the biggest reason that I'll let it go is the simple fact that I have lost a good bit of the love for riding that I once had. Beyond that, I have been spending more and more time out in western VA/WV when I do go out riding, and the 2V air cooled motor just doesn't pull quite as hard once you get it up into the higher elevations. I've also grown a little tired of the whole Ducati "thing": the maintenance, the perceived lifestyle that the brand portrays here as well as actions/decisions that the company has taken on a corporate level. Not trying to sound all high-brow with that, but it just gets to me. There's a decent chance that the KTM will be up for sale shortly after the SC sells, assuming it does sell, and I'll just take a break from riding for a while. Or on the other end of the spectrum, I might just say make the beast with two backs it, turn them both in for something even dumber and see if that rekindles the passion for riding again. At the end of the day, I'm just at a virtual inpasse, and not sure which direction I'll end up in.
Was your SC owned at one point by the son of a Hollywood mogul, hedge fund manager, or other important person? Add it to the listing and you'll have no trouble getting your asking price. That apparently is the ultimate mod:

$10 says that's the path I'd choose! I bought one bike that had a skank attached to it. Rode them both for about five years.

Which same one?
From back in December: Just saying maybe.... had us going back then ....... got to be the same one. Guy claims 2009 Evo, which is wrong already just like the first guy. It has the same white striping on the rims.
Frederick got the whole thing started on page 66..... below are quotes from Gene & me.
How can you go wrong?...salvage title, something wrong with engine, in good condition...
That could be one of our not so regular forum members former bike. Ken, maybe, ? who lived out in Waianae and used it as a commuter bike, traded it in, consigned it, with plans to get a Panigale?
Who knows what happened after that but it has the right amount of miles to be the same bike??
yeah looks like it.

As enticing as a Mille R is it has the potential to drive you more nuts than a certain Daytona. You have to be dedicated to Ducati and even more dedicated to Aprilia. Not because the bike is so bad. It's not. Just that you have shit for support compared to most other bikes.
Speaking of the Daytona.....

Won't idle....starts and runs, then dies after 20-30 seconds.
The dealer doesn't know what the problem is...they have been going back in forth with Triumph USA for 3 weeks now.
Been at the Dealer 33 days and counting :-[

We'll see how it plays out. The insurance company isn't stepping up as much as we had hoped to fix Gloria's SL. Plus I have some medical things coming up. Not that we can't handle otherwise but throw the possibility of a cool BMW into the mix and well....... But who knows?.... had two quick hits on it but from past experience those always turn out to be BS and so far that's all it is. Things would be a whole lot different if she hadn't got caught in the Pali Tunnel like that but that's life....... [roll] Don't take that to mean I'm blaming her for anything, I'm not. :-*

Well, there's that yellow 848 Streetfighter that's been gathering dust in the SSD showroom for some time now...of course I'll need a good test ride to see if it's right for me. And there's always the Speed Triple...which I was shopping for before I stumbled upon the SF.

Apart from the money needed to do the conversion that's one really good reason I always come back to thinking that the 848 is the best of all worlds. [roll] I only miss the big power about 10 to 15 % of the time and wonder if I even got the modded 1098 engine to handle as good as the present bike if there would be a big fight with the power. That modded engine would get on & off the power faster than a regular 1098 and that could be an issue. Dang, I do, though, wish I had the moola to find out. My 848 makes more HP than that R1200S but not as much torque so I don't know how that would work.

I used to think that all the time. Did my damn best at times to make it happen too. Here's a bit of advice. If you're thinking along those lines then either make darn sure that you don't get there or make sure you have a nice retirement waiting for you if you do make the beast with two backs up and beat the odds. ;D

I was going to say that I don't think there's any problem with getting the replacements. We need someone to buy the current bikes. [thumbsup] Mileage is only a number but it's a mind-warp number in most people's minds. Both bikes have been meticulously maintained and neither has had any real big deal issue. But still.......... [roll]
Gene does have one advantage in that he can trade his in on the new SF if he wants to go that route. I have a brand new SF t-shirt he could have ( yellow SF ) [laugh]
I've had absolutely zero hits besides the standard first day scam artist try-me-ons. Oh, well .... Like I said before two years ago when I tried to sell it the first time ..... wouldn't hurt me none to hold onto it. [Dolph]

If it's got the low miles that I think it does the price seems pretty fair.

Yeah pretty fresh. Unfortunatly that's the way I like the CL bikes to be.
Damn thing would double the value of my stable but I know somebody who says that evo is quite the shits.
I hope the "somebody" you are referring to is not me. When I gush about the 848 I'm talking about mine which is in no way close to a stock 848, Evo or not. Still, the Evo is good but just needs a proper set up and some extra goodies added on. You might like it.

Hi Mac, not directly you, but rather you too. I'm not a racer, in fact I'm rather slow these days. My HP needs are limited to the fact that I'm over 6' and over 200#. Because of that I don't like bikes that don't have the ass for a decent hole-shot or fall short while passing and hills. The 998 testastretta motors I ride currently never leave me wanting for more so there's no 1098's, 1198's or 1199's in my future.
The aerodynamics of the monster suck in our consistently windy environment so I vastly prefer the SBK format for both handling and ergonomics. As much as I love to ride the matrix these days I don't think I can ever get it to run cool enough to run in heavy stop/go traffic for commuting. If they ever throw out the 848 with an underbelly exhaust I might have to buy my first new bike. Until then I'm considering the 848 evo as a possible commuter.
Although the 848 runs cooler than the bigger engines I'm not sure I'd recommend it for a commuter bike. It will still get hot and be unhappy but it doesn't get blistering hot, at least not if you put on the Termi exhaust and get rid of those cats. I really don't know what I would recommend for stop & go traffic motorcycle wise. Maybe a Honda cbr 600? Seriously, I think so. It has the aerodynamics and ergos and a small ( not big heat maker ) engine that still has some scoot. Not a Ducati though. They need to be moving. A Gixxer 750 works good too.
The monster can handle the commuting heat just fine. Once the fans kick in I've never seen it over 215. It also benefits from the naked factor with no plastic to hold the heat in. I've been really down on it since I put the slipper clutch in. Maybe I just need to do away with that and get back to something real.
The P.O. put Pazzo shorties on it. I've changed the clutch side back to full length so it's not such a bear in traffic. Maybe I already have what I need. The monster for commute, and the 998 for the weekend snake rides.
Funny you mention the CBR 6. That's been a concept for quite some time. The consummate chick bike. Problem is I think my brother is back in the banditos and he'd likely have to hang himself out of professional courtesy if rode a CBR 6.

That's where the 848 fans kick in too. I know the theory the engineers put forth but that number just bothers me greatly. I hate it. I like 180 or 190 in traffic. At speed the 848 runs even cooler.
Maybe you do but it you like the Monster then you'd love an 848 Streetfighter. If you can live without the fairings, that is.
Ask Mark Marquez about that. ;D

Showed the bike to one guy who really liked it except for one thing. He's physically too small for it. Stretched over the gas tank and stretched arms just to get to the bars. Just barely able to touch toes and could not hold the bike up to catch the kickstand and lower it. Dang Germans think everyone is 6' plus. [bang]
Another guy & played text message and couldn't get the schedules to work out but he may try again this weekend and there is even one other guy who may come over from Maui to see it. [Dolph]
Bummer for the height challenged guy...
Still no joy on the SF even though I've lowered the price somewhat...probably going to let the ad run through next weekend and then drop it for bit if there are no serious nibbles...

Here I was psyching myself into getting a bit slower and a bit lower key bike, sort of mellowing out in my semi-advancing years. It may be that God, or the Devil [evil], has other plans.

The guy never responded back to me. There's really not anything out there at the present time that tickles my fancy so I'm going to keep the SF for awhile longer.

Okay my bad. Seller is willing to show me the bike. Reported it as a "base model". That would be my preference due to the fact I'm not a big fan of electronics. Problem is KBB for that is just $15,600. Well below the asking price.

Oh no, I'm getting eyes rolled on DT ...again! And what's this "I" might be open to an offer?
As far as SSD goes I have a hard time getting a safety check "out the door" there so I really have no idea what they charge for bikes.
I think the base Panigale goes for $16,995. plus tax & doc fees. Maybe $18,200-$18,250 OTD. Just guessing. YMMV.

No worries. The seller is convinced his used machinery is worth a new price so it ainta gonna happen with me. He emailed me telling me since he was so much older than me he felt he needs to give me an edumacation on buying used machinery.
Let's just say that didn't go well.

SEX ON TWO WHEELS.
Let's be honest, there are tons of liter-bikes for sale on craigslist: gsxrs, r1s, zx13s, hayabusas, cbrs, etc. If you buy this bike you are making a statement, and that statement is: YOU DIG CASH/CHICKS/ROCKNROLL AND WANT THE VERY BEST FOR YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Japanese bikes are neat little high-revving childrens play things. The 1098 is a V-Twin TORQUE MONSTER designed for ADULTS by the freaking ROMAN EMPIRE. Once you ride/hear/feel this Italian ROLLING ORGASM, you will never want anything else. It is like CRACK COCAINE main-lined in to your veins. BOTH of your heads will explode!
This is the second DUCATI I have owned....and guess what my next bike is...ANOTHER DUCATI OF COURSE!!!!
Be warned, this bike is a weapon, a nuclear bomb in your crotch.....when you STRAP ON this FIGHTER JET of a motorcycle amazing things will happen to you! Every guy will wanna be you, every girl will wanna be WITH you. Get ready for TONS of attention. When you ride this bike with other motorcycles, nobody will look at any other bike, girls will only care about WHAT YOU HAVE BETWEEN YOUR LEGS.
If you have ever wanted to own something EXOTIC, TREAT YO SELF this riding season, pony up the 8.9k and BECOME A ROCKSTAR. You are awesome and you deserve it!
I am the one and only owner. Purchased and serviced at Matison Motorsports in Raleigh. BRAND NEW front tire, low mileage on rear tire. The next service is not required till 7500 miles.
Details:
$8900 (stupid cheap!)
Ducati Red (duh!)
4300 miles (crazy low!)
Stock except for mirrors, fender eliminator and tank protector (why mess with perfection?!?!?)

True!... ;D
The bike has 1450 miles on it, so it's essentially new. I'm going to check with SSD about after market warranty availability, otherwise I think I'll pass...kind of apprehensive about a bike that has been sitting for so long without being exercised and I like the warm & IZ_ feeling of a warranty...
I would check on a warranty but maybe not necessarily through SSD. Unless they give you a good deal. You might be able to find a better deal on your own. I might could help. I wouldn't be that scared of the low mileage. As a matter of fact if circumstances were a bit different I'd make a move on it. If now were next year it could be different. But the R12S is good.
Checked on a warranty through SSD yesterday...complete coverage, no deductible, $1200 for 3 years.
Going to take a pass on this one though, because as cool as it would be, I just don't want to do the same mods to the same bike all over again...I want to try something different, variety is the spice of life ya know... [evil]

I actually looked at that SV1000S on Hickam thru the owner...but it was before I had sold the 675!!!
It had been on CL for about 3 weeks at $4700 with no serious offers. Owner told me it could be mine for 4K...but I couldn't move on it! It's really pretty nice.....
I actually like the 954 better...though it's not as clean as the SV

A 954, in and of itself, is not necessarily a POS but the one on CL looks like it might be a bit rough. Pictures aren't that good so who knows until you see it in person but you know that work is needed right off the bat to get a safety check and make it decently rideable. Just saying that the Suzuki looks cleaner and might give fewer problems. It also makes a nice Ducati like noise too. and might be better for your whole riding style. But, who am I to say? [roll]

I am happy to report that the bike does everything pretty well that it was intended. it is a great commuter, looks more SS than it is...which I like"!!
I took it for a Tantalus run.......first time on an inline 4 in 20 years. it will take some time getting used to the lack of engine braking. Bike has decent power...what it really lacks compared to the M900 & 675 are good brakes!!!

Yep. One thing though is that it is a first year model and the electrics weren't totally sorted. I found out the hard way with the 2003 but I still miss it. A 2005 or 2006 could be different though.
That bike also has, at least, a Termi full can and maybe a full system, but you can't tell beyond the toaster.

How come you are selling?
It doesn't fit as well as the aisan version. apparently the US or western head form is much narrower. Since the US distributor can't bring in an asian version, thus settled for it and will try to sell it and get something else. It's a large, but with 58-59CM fit. I was going to let them send me an XL and keep one, but they asked me to ship the L back and pay for the XL shipping to me, thus I felt not worth the try.
YUMM!!

Another thing he forgot to mention is the fact that the swingarm was swapped out for an '06 model. Seems silly to throw that much money (modding) at a bike and not even touch the three things it needed most: crap wheels, crap suspension and crap brakes.

This is about the fourth or fifth time he's had the ad up. In past ads he was asking about $15K. I always got a laugh over that and kept thinking about how Ben's bike was better. The only thing that really sets this bike off is that it is the Paul Smart edition. Maybe I should call him up & offer to sell him my old front forks and brakes off the 848. [cheeky]
That's just it, his isn't a PS. It's an '07 with an '06 swingarm conversion. The PSs all had asymmetric swingarm AND a dry clutch.
Reduced by $2k...I may have to look at this if he goes any lower... ;)

Yes. You don't have to be quite the same man to ride one. [laugh] [laugh] Unless you want to ride it fast. [evil] [evil] [evil]
Smoother? Yes, and in a much more linear fashion as well. Not sure of the tune they put in the Tuono, but the SBK model packs a good bit more horsepower as well. Wind that bad boy up over 7500 rpms and HOLY SHIT!! :o
I guess it didn't sell. True to fashion though, they mislist it.

Quote2009 Yamaha YZF-R1 motorcycle for sale. It has the yellow / black factory plastics that did have the janky ass flame decals but that stuff is for lil' kids IF YOU FEEL ME. Those vinyls were removed and the fairings plasti-dipped a matte black. Plastic dip is removable so if you a soft ass kid who likes flame decals, you can pull the matte finish and have the gloss undercoat again. This precision machine has been babied too! Shift light on the tachometer has been set to 7k RPM. That's right! If you buy this thing, you can be the lucky mo-fo to run it up to its 13,750 red line and pop that cherry. Be careful though, this thing is hella fast. You been watching the MotoGP races? Yamaha has been KILLING it the last 5 years. "Meeeeeh Honda's have superior gyro's meeeeeh" GTFO. That ain't doin nothin for ya. If you like GSXR's with gel seats, take yo candy ass back to Whole Foods. This ain't yo bike. This is my 10th bike, and hands down has the most torque and satisfaction per degree throttle rotation. The cross plane crank makes the 2-Brother slip on pipe SING! It's like hearing a baby's first words, this thing will make you cry; it's beautiful. If you're looking at this 09, you're a smart man. There has been no major revision to the R1 between 09 and 14, so you know you're getting the equivalent of a show room bike. Check wikipedia! That ish is legit. Bike also has some flush mounts and a fender eliminator on it. Take some of that noise away from this fine ass 2 wheeled bullet. Ain't got time for noise. Your girlfriend ever get in your face talking noise? Drop her. Get this bike and girls will be falling over they feet trying to spit game at you. You could take your new girl on the back of this thing to the lake to meet up with your boys. Girls love the lake. They also love fast ass bikes. Go ahead and get you that new girlfriend. Fast. This bike is also fast. Check out the pics! It's at an airfield! That's because this thing FLIES. Not literally, it's a metaphor. This bike is FAST. It's also efficient. This thing gets 40+mpig. That's right, 40+ miles per Imperial Gallon. We getting fancy. You'll know that from reading the owners manual. It comes with an owners manual. And 2 keys! I bet your car doesn't even have 2 keys.
Check out the pics! That's the bike next to a Dodge 600 Turbo drop top. You ever seen one of them? Thought not. So fresh... look at the interior! That a/c spits Ice Cubes.
Scroll over some. That's it next to a big ass ford truck! You might have seen that truck on the front page of the Lebanon news paper. That's cause I parked it in a ditch the other day when it was real icy. You gotta be intuitive like that. Dodge ain't for sale. I might give you that truck tho for $20k if the hundreds is crisp. I doubt it though. Real talk.
This bike has also been garage kept. You ever been on a date with your girl friend and got caught in the rain? I feel you. Drop that ho. This bike has never been in the rain. You know what that means? I take better care of this bike than you take care of your girlfriend. That's FACT. You see what I'm getting at here? This is the bike you need. Only reason I'm selling this thing is because I got promoted after my employer saw that I was powerful and successful; How did I display that you ask? Because I drove this master piece of a bike to work and ERY Body had mad respect. Earn Mad Respect. Get a Promotion. Buy my bike. Title in hand. No trades.

The alternative is to keep the SF, which I would have no objection doing as I love it...I just feel the need for something different while I'm able. It's funny how when you get to be my age you start wondering how much time you have left to enjoy doing the things you enjoy doing... ;D

I'm going to pretend I didn't see that... :(
Actually, I think I did see that awhile back but ironically didn't care for the black...it doesn't have the flyscreen and belly pan that the 2014 model has, and probably needs tires and an extended warranty, but it is still a substantial savings over a new one...and no break in required... ;D

I've spoken to the owner of the yellow RR. She can ride just fine but she's worried that if the bike ever falls over then she won't be able to pick it up. It being the half fairing model it's only worth about half of what she's asking according to NADA values.

Go for it! I don't know about the price though. The 1098R is probably worth 25K, maybe 30K at the most. What? Another 35K to 40K for the 1199R? Is that right? 16K maybe for the 999 Fila so it could be a push.

I don't think the Kapolei, recently purchased one, was abused. I couldn't speak for it's entire life but the guy I know that had it tried to keep all of his BMW's and that bike in good shape. He liked to ride but he's not a squid. The S4R has a newer style engine that's a little easier to work on.

He says it runs but the clutch is notching on the basket and the plates. Might be a good candidate for forks and a motor for me.
Beware! I have seen & touched this bike. It hasn't run for a while. The tank is rusted all over on the inside. The fork sliders are pitted and will likely damage the fork seals once it starts being ridden again. If I got it I would be taking the forks apart to have the sliders re-chromed. Either that or new forks. I made him a low ball offer as this bike will need some time, money & TLC to get it back right again. Too bad, the guy started with the best intentions but his film project gets in the way of taking care of the bike. It also hasn't been registered for what? Five years or so, but he says DMV will waive the penalties. Who really knows? It has potential, I don't want to cast dispersions on that but be careful about wading in on this one. He's also trying to leave town for SE Asia but his timeline for leaving seems to keep changing........
I was going to swap fork on mine and sell it for a few hundred less but screw that if they're all bus up already.

Amazing car. I always thought someone should do just such a conversion, and so they have. Looks like it's in great condition, too. If I were on the left coast instead of the right, I would be sorely tempted.

I asked about the cam bearing and got the reply " if it doesn't sell by next week, I'll just replace the engine", I don't think the owner knows much about the bike because I got an IDK when asked if the bike was dropped on the left side and if it starved the oil pump.
Seems legit.

I don't see that many Ducs anymore!!!?
But, there has been 1199 silver & red tank. Is that aluminum?
Beautiful bike....at the inter island parking lot.
I really don't know about an 1199 with a silver and red tank. The only silver/red combination that I know of would be on the 1198 SP. Red with a silver stripe down the middle. You'd have to look up the Panigale variations.
As for the "list"? The usual suspects. I'm not partial to the superbikes so much anymore but there could still be one last blast. Has to have power & sound. My current bike has spoiled me with regards to power. It's like instant afterburner when you twist the throttle. No waiting, just instant go. Gene's bike reminded me of what good suspension feels like & I miss that on mine. If the mystery coolant loss on my bike is resolved then I could end up keeping it. When you add gas the road gets small real fast and that's hard to give up.
Silver and red tank 1199 is probably a guy Justin. His is a base model. What color front mud guard?
1199R has a lot of "raw" alloy showing on its tank.

I think the red/silver may be something he had done. I could be wrong but I don't think the base or the "S" came like that. They do have aluminum tanks IIRC.

Personally, I'd like to give Tuono ownership a whirl before I lose my faculties and can't ride anymore...better still would be an upgraded SFS (I love that Ducati L-twin), but we know that ain't gonna happen.
Being realistic the Speedy is perfect for me, a guy that's still using a flip-phone. No electronic rider aids to complicate things, great handling, enough power to scoot down the road nicely, and reliable as a brick (so far)...but it's not soul stirring when you wind it out like the Duc was (is)...

Re

Front fender was carbon.
It had a red "wolf" decal on windshield.
I will take a pic next time I see it.
Yeah, that's Justin's. MD, I think he may have painted it like that

I'm telling you, that V4 is pretty sweet! It lays down the power in such a great way; like you're riding a wave that just keeps building and building. Plus, it sounds better than just anything legal.
And I rode the first gen power plant!

That'd be a big chunk o' money difference. I might could swing the regular version 1299 but not the S. Even the regular would be a huge stretch. In more ways than one. ;D
Spendy bikes they are but so sick! ;D Trying to decide if a 899 panigale and a ktm 350 xcfw would be better than just having a 1299s. Decisions decisions...

You've got to hear that engine once it's got a system on it. :o
I like that the Panigales are so different from all of the other bikes out there. I really like the design and engineering that went into the Panigales. Not to say that I dislike the RSV, just rather spend my $$ the duc. :-)
Me too, maybe....... the Panigale fits me a bit better plus I have classic jackets. ;D

The RSV4RF has a great color scheme....but the 1299 headlight / nose & that exhaust would make the choice easy for me.

I was more thinking "move to the mainland and get a Factory for $5K less".

Even if, and when, I move there I won't get one for 5k less if it's new. Used perhaps but I doubt new. And then there is always the question of support. I.E.,where's the nearest dealer at any given time of riding. I think the Aprilia network is pretty sparse once you are out of the L.A. basin.

Biggest dealer is in Texas.

Not in west Texas either. ;D
You can travel from east Texas to the west coast and be halfway there by the time you hit the New Mexico state line.
Oh, I know. I've made that drive several times.

Looks familiar...
Weird that it's for sale...I ran into Mike, the owner, a month or so ago and he was estatic about the bike, having had the 30k service done and the bike running great. He had a really trick HyperMotard SP that he sold, so I thought he would be keeping the SF for a long time... ???
Fwiw, I sold it for $8250 with approx 28.5k miles on the clock. Included in the sale were a hose kit from MotoWheels (which he has installed), an extra ECU and a new rear sprocket.
If I hadn't just resurfaced my roof, I'd go and take a look at it...I miss that motor!... [evil]
I was about to ask you if, at a certain price, whether or not you would buy it back.

I'd consider buying it back, but taking into account future maintenance needs and the want of a better suspension I probably wouldn't...now if it was an SFS with the Ohlins, I'd be more tempted...
Sadly I have decided to put this on the market... I just cannot see it just sitting in the sun and getting older and depreciate further. :'(

Two? Your SF?
No, two riders left out of the original group... ;)
Original?

Okay, okay, I know that I wasn't a member of the original group, nor do I know it's origins, but you get my gist... ;)
Walter had his 900 Monster stolen 4 years ago out of one of his shipping container hangers up At Dillingham Field. Since then he has run stolen bike ads on Craigslist every now and then. This morning I found the bike on Craigslist & we went out to Waikele to check it out. For sure it was his bike. He is negotiating the release.

That is actually true. It seems that the bike was picked up by a towing company at one time and had a slew of parking tickets on it. Somehow it had a mechanics lien placed on it and for some reason Wally never got any notification. Title was awarded to the towing company and the bike was auctioned. Now in the hands of a young serviceman who is rotating back to the mainland in less than a month. The engine doesn't start. When Walter last had it it was popping out of second gear. That was why it was in storage in the first place. The front forks still leak oil. In short it is still a mess but nothing that a bit of work can't turn around somewhat at least.

i would look to the towing company.
a. towing company person sees bike he wants.
b. puts bike out in place sure to get tickets.
c. racks up a bunch of tickets until the bike has a tow order.
d. tows bike. no one collects.
e. towing company takes title.
a similar thing happened around here with cars.
I'm not sure but I think Walter bought it back cheap.

He did buy it back and the restoration has commenced. It will be a slow but hopefully a worthwhile project. The original Monster that started it all again for me.
MSRP I believe is about $17k and he paid nearly $25k, appears to be another uniformed Cycle City victim...

Good that you finally got it sold. I understand that sometimes need for change. Good riding with you & good luck!
Thank you. It's been fun. Changes are good. Hope to see you guys around, at least for coffee. ;-p
It looks like my old Duc is back on the CL again. He's got a new set of tires, nothing else changed.

Too funny. This same bike was up for sale at least a couple years ago. Looks like the new owner wants to sell it for more than he paid for it. [roll]
