now now, dont write off the spewzies. Mines a great bike couldnt see myself riding anything else for a while anyways

the gixxer is a top bike too!!

It's obviously hard to tell from that angle, but it seems to be in good nick.
Can't really go wrong with any of the ZX6's. Like everyone else has said, take Ians checklist and you'll be fine.

And welcome.

i've got a zx6r buyers guide which was scanned from two wheels in march 2000 and goes on about what to look out for and info on the various years models.
I thought i got it from the files section in the yahoo group but i can't find it anywhere now ...

i can zip it up and email it to ya if you want or send it to one of the admins for the tech section of this site. it's 883k zipped.

welcome aboard mate.

it sounds like a deal but get someone who know a thing or two to have a look at it.

Smek, I would love a copy too if you don't mind .... I will be looking for a zx6 in early Feb when I finally get off my P's.

For anyone else who is after it

hey guys i have found out from someone else who checked out the bike.. that it runs fine, except when he stopped after a few mins he noticed some oil dripping.. after further inspection he found it was coming from the gearbox/sump.. and would need a gasket or something...

i have decided if there are there problems there could be more and its probably not worth it..

what do you guys think?

Sounds like a reasonable call to me.
I'd be weighing up potential cost and talking a discounted price if I was really keen, but as you can't see it yourself and weigh up the risks I'd give it a miss.
ty

yeah iv had to fix this gixxer enough.. dont want another bike that needs work.. want something thats puuurfect.. or so to speak

so keep an eye out for a bike for me up to $7k

sounds fair enough mate.. If you're going to part with your Cash, best to part with it for something you'll be happy with from the onset... There was a '00 model in vic with some fairing damage for around $6. so I'm sure you'll find something out there.. Just a matter of timing and not rushing it..


Shop with your Brain, not your Heart... that's my moto.

yeah thats it... i got a loan for a bike so i dont want to waste it... i wouldnt mind something with minor fairing damage.. only problem is i dont live in a big city so i have to rely on forums and online sites to find the bargains!

wow dan thats like the fist time u made sense........

dans right jj.

impulse buying can be good and it can be really bad.
