There is a guy selling an 07 busa with 5,xxx miles and its completely stock, well not completely stock it is lowered. He was asking $7,500 and I got him down to $6,800. I was only wanting to spend $6,500. Do you guys think I should suck it up and pay $6,800? Is this a good deal? Also it needs new front and rear tires and the forks a leaking are little from the seals.

$6k or walk. Tires, and seals will be another $4-500 depending on who does em and what tires ya get. There are better deals out there.

in case you have not yet checked, a few bikes are listed in the CLASSIFIEDS: Bikes

Have you also checked CL/Cycletrader? Best of luck.

stick with the busas.
many more after market parts and support. :rulez:

sounds like that 07 was beat up, rode hard and put up wet. wheelies trash fork seals.

good luck. the hunt for the right bike is half the fun.

Good news, I've found a 08 with 2,xxx miles for $7,250. It's all stock and the owner is a good friend with my uncle. What do you guys think of this deal?

Much better.

This was 3 yrs old and just 900 miles for $8K. They are out there, and don't pay too much.

Sounds like you found a much better deal. Good luck!
