Default Is there some sort of bike shortage??

I'm trying to find a bike for chris and I'm having so much trouble. I called up everyone selling a 99-02 r6 in cycle trader and they were all sold. Throttle factory told me they have one that will be ready in a couple days. I'm not exactly thrilled to buy one from them though...

Does anyone know of any good bikes for sale for 4500 or less? Preferablly a 99-02 r6. So far I've checked ebay, r6messagenet.com, cycletrader, word of mouth and most local bike shops. So all I could think was to post here bc I know plenty of people don't advertise right away, maybe someone out there is thinking of selling one. Also an 04-05 gsx-r 600 or 750 would be nice if price is good. Hit me up! (813)810-1881

As you are finding out, the bike market has exploded. Especially for good used bikes under $4k. Its gonna take patients and time to find it. hang in there.

try wera.com - there are a lot of salvage bikes there and race only bikes, but sometimes there is are some good deals.

Hell I bought my 03 ZX6rr on there with 2400 miles for $3K and had it good to go for another $500
