• ZERO- WHERE DID MY AD GO?
    • It has likely been deleted for running egregiously afoul of the rules below. Feel Free to try again

    1- DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SELL THE FOLLOWING ON BARF:
    • animals, though free re-homing is ok.
    • anything illegal.
    • drugs, legal or not.

    2- Sellers, for best results... please read and follow these instructions:

    • Asking price [MANDATORY] in the BODY ONLY. DO NOT PUT PRICE IN THE TITLE
      • motorcycle or other vehicle:
        - make [MANDATORY]
        - model [MANDATORY]
        - year [MANDATORY]
        - Pictures [FIRST THING THAT WILL BE ASKED FOR IF YOU DON'T, BUT NOT MANDATORY]
        - mileage
        - title info
        - current condition
        - maintenance history
        - accident history
        - location
      • If selling riding gear, include:
        - size in the title of the thread. [MANDATORY]
        - in your post, include: intended gender/body weight/height/inseam/waist range that best fits the item.

    • Do not include the price in the title. You won't be able to edit it later. Put the price in the body of your post.
    • DO NOT INCLUDE LINKS TO 3RD PARTY SALES SITES Copy/paste your ad to BARF and make sure it includes the info above.
    • Edit your original post and change the price there... many buyers will not look beyond that point if you change the price later on further into the thread. Also, remember to add SOLD to first line of the first post when the item has been sold.
    • Please use the "Report this post to a moderator" (
      report.gif
      ) option at the lower left portion of the post if item is sold or to report erroneous posts or threads, and it will be taken care of.
    • With any indication that an item is sold, the thread will be locked by moderators. It is not fair to other valid ads to be pushed down the list when side discussions bump a sold ad to the top of the list. Moderators will do their best in changing the title and adding a 'sold' to the beginning of the title to save a few clicks for others.


    3- Buyers, BEWARE!!!

    • Pricing - Know the current market value of the bike. Check Kelly Blue book, NADA, CycleTrader, Ebay, Craigslist (even though some people on Craigslist are asking non-realistically high prices and will never be able to sell the bike at their asking price), and know what the current market value of a similar bike is before considering a purchase. Consider the maintenance work or fixes that YOU need to do to the bike, and factor that into the price. It is ok to pay more for a bike that has had all of the maintenance work done to it recently, or pay less and get a bike that needs some work, but you must know this in advance and be ok with it.
    • Inspecting the bike: if you are not experienced yourself, have a mechanic or an experienced friend check the bike before making a purchase. Crashed bikes:This is even more important if you are buying a bike that is being sold at a cheaper price with damages that the buyer is required to fix. In these cases, doing a frame check that will show any frame/fork/geometry damages is HIGHLY recommended. Do NOT simply rely on the information that the seller is providing, even he/she may not be aware of all the problems. Have the crashed bike checked and know what you are getting into.
    • Clean title, Salvage title A clean title doesn't mean the bike is free of serious issues. A Salvaged title doesn't mean the bike may have any problems. Every case is different. Some bikes are seriously damaged in a crash, but an insurance claim is never made on them, so they still have a clean title. Some bikes have had mostly cosmetic damages in a crash, but the insurance company decided to pay off the bike and salvage the title rather than spending the money to fix it. Know what you are getting into and don't make any assumptions based on what the seller is telling you.
    • Registration: Know about the current registration status of the bike. Check with DMV if you have any questions about any possible back fees and other title/registration questions (out of state title, no title with bill of sales only, etc.) before purchasing the bike.
    • Some additional tips: You can find some more useful info here: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=216958

    4- DO NOT make your opinion known in the seller's ad

    • Comments within a sale thread should be on topic and educational. Aggressive critiques and inside jokes will not be tolerated. Constructive dialogue is a valuable feature of the barf classifieds section and community as a whole. Flame wars and unsubstantiated accusations help neither seller or buyer. Don't fuck it up, because the next step is disabling the "reply" feature entirely.
    • If you disagree with a price, keep it to yourself. The seller has set the price. If you don't like it, don't buy it and move on. If you really feel strongly about it, then PM the seller.
    • If you are interested in an item, feel free to PM, email or contact the seller privately. Feel free to post if you need clarification... however, your post should be in line with above mentioned rules.
    • If you are aware of a serious issue with an ad (SPAM, stolen goods, a frame damaged bike being advertised as a 'never crashed' bike, etc.) please PM a moderator about it.

    5- DO NOT SPAM the classifieds section on BARF

    • Spamming entails using only the classifieds sections of BARF without taking part in other sections of BARF (regardless of whether the ad is for a personal item or a business.) The appeal of BARF classifieds is to enable and connect BARFers with some established history on BARF to one another.

      BARF isn't craigslist, ebay, cycletrader, etc. Buyers who are looking to buy from random strangers do so on one of the above mentioned sites. Those who only post in Classifieds sections and don't take part in other parts of BARF are no different than any other random sellers on Craigslist, etc., and should use channels other than BARF to try and sell their items.
    • If you're affiliated with a store/shop, please contact budman regarding sponsorship options. ALL non-sponsor commercial posts will be deleted. Site sponsors should post using only one account that is assigned a BARF SPONSOR tag.
    • We encourage the use of the classifieds by active contributing members. New members may post in the Classifieds forum after establishing minimal history on BARF (15 days and 15 posts). If you actively attempt to circumvent these minimum requirements only to post in classifieds, your account may be suspended. After reaching these minimums, posting only in the classifieds without taking part in other sections of BARF may result in being banned from BARF.

    6- DO NOT repost funny/strange/not-related-to-you ads from Craigslist or elsewhere on BARF or anywhere else for that matter.
    • No reposting
    • No reposting
    • No reposting. If what you're about to post isn't for sale BY YOU, don't post it.

    7- SELLING FOR A FRIEND:
    • Is not allowed.

    8- Feeler, Testing Waters etc:
    • Is no longer allowed.

      • If you are unsure of the fair price of your item, use the search function to research other similar items, ebay, craigslist, nadaguides, kelly blue book or whatever else is applicable. The classifieds section is not a discussion forum, thus not the place to be asking for opinions on market value that might lead to massive gray areas of conversation that violate preceding rules outlined above.
  • There has been a recent cluster of spammers accessing BARFer accounts and posting spam. To safeguard your account, please consider changing your password. It would be even better to take the additional step of enabling 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) on your BARF account. Read more here.

Also, I'm happy to contribute 1% back to BARF. :)

Valves were checked and still well within spec. Compression and leak down numbers are also good.
 
Title status? Also, what kind of bodywork is that?

Texted ya back.

The bike has a salvage title and was sold at auction as such. Bill of sale only as that's what I received from its previous owner.

Initially, the bike had some front end vibration, presumably from whatever caused it to be salvaged. I had the forks, triples, wheel, and rotors checked by Dr. Johns MFS here in SoCal. Everything is now straight and the vibration is gone.
Also, the chain was super short, big rear sprocket and a bent peg when I got it. This lead me to change out the sprockets, chain, rear brake line, rearsets, and drop in a new clutch.

Bodywork is from Armour bodies or Optimal, I'm not 100% sure. I know they're not Sharkskinz, Catalyst, or Hotbodies....

For what it may be worth, this is my 3rd 750 over the past 10 years. I've raced my 08 for 4 years (CVMA and AFM), I'm quite familiar with these bikes at this point! :)
Currently selling to buy a liter bike since CVMA doesn't have a 750 class!

What's been done to the suspension?

It's still mostly stock. Geometry has been set up for a taller ride by lowering the forks and shimming the rear shock. There's also an adjustable link in the rear that helps.

How far down were the forks lowered? Are you running fork tube extenders (available only w/aftermarket carts AFAIK)?

Forks are flush to the top of the triple, no extenders. Adjusted the rear link as much as possible to get a better trail number, and had to add a shim on the shock from there.
 
Here's another pic of the captive rear brake caliper. This holds both the caliper bracket and the chain adjuster in place when you're changing the rear wheel. There is enough slop in there to allow the axle to slide fore and aft when you adjust chain tension, but everything still stays in place while you're trying to line up the axle when reinstalling the wheel.
Also, the adjuster block on the other side is attached to the axle with a set screw so that it doesn't move when you pull the axle out.
And lastly, I added a chamfer to the edge of the brake pads to make it easier to slide the rotor into the caliper.
They're all small things, but added up, they make a huge difference when you're putting a new tire back on!

This bike is still up for grabs. Shoot me a reasonable offer and we can discuss.

Throw numbers on it and run through tech and you'll be good to race!
... Or just take it to a regular track day near you and have a blast on this bike. :)

I'll have this bike on display at Chuckwalla this week, if anyone is in the area (maybe?) and wants to get a closer look, hit me up!
 
I'll be at Chuckwalla again this coming Monday and Tuesday coaching for Jason Pridmore's Star School.

If anyone is coming out, I'll have the bike available to check out!
 
Lowering the price to $5500. I'm tired of dealing with Craigslist scams.

So far everyone from BARF that's shown interest in the bike has been great, either for the price, title, or living in Texas, it hasn't worked out.

I'd so much rather send this bike to a good home with someone honest. Thanks!
 
Bump.
I have a set of stands and a gas jug I'll throw in with the sale.
Front stand is a LP head stand that grabs the triple, not the forks. Great for tire changes as well as any fork maintenance you may like to do in the future. The rear stand is your choice of a LP stand that has pads to grab the swingarm (currently wrapped in duct tape) or a super lightweight aluminum stand that grabs the swingarm spools.
The gas jug is of the 5 gallon variety.
Hit me up!
