but when(if) I ever sell my script I've made a list of the bikes I'd buy for this newly found passion called motorcyling. I've made the list in the order of my ability to ride, as I am newly licenced. Anything I missed?

M696
BMW F800GS
848 Dark
Multistrada 1200S (with nose job)
Streetfighter S
BMW S 1000 RR
Desmosedici ;)

M900

Ninja 250


I already have a Yamaha Radian yx600. Not interested in trading it for a 250. The 600 is safe enough, but has enough pull to remind me when I'm pushing my luck.

If you wanna "trade up", but don't want to break the bank you could consider nearly any used Monster 750 or 900.  The carbureted versions can generally be had pretty cheap, and you'd still be riding Italian hardware.

My 2 cents....
Never appeal to a man's "better nature."  He may not have one.  Invoking his self-interest gives you more leverage.  R.A. Heinlein

like that? ;D

Yea but can't afford it. Just bought my bike a couple of months ago after a deal fell through on an M800(*slightly* dented). I kind of rushed into the radian, but well...that's what I have for now. It's better to learn on than the m800, and I wouldn't be devestated if something happened to it. Also lot's of cheap parts available. I'll have to wait a little while.

Um, yeah! Someone should definitely buy that. Under 3K miles for $1,600? That is a hell of a start
Every bike I've ever owned.

Not sure if this one should be on the Crack addict list or not. Doesn't say if it has all it's parts. Tempting project if it does.

Its advertised as a Monster, but its clearly not a Monster frame, that's an SS. Steer clear.

Aah. It's obvious now. Thanks. Pff...Crack Heads >:(

Think I'll notify craigslist that it's fraudulant.

Also notice the price is below what it would easily go for on eBay, if separated as frame, swingarm, wheels & rotors, and engine.
