[QUOTE="LeadHead, post: 142005, member: 367"] I may be buying a new bike this weekend. I sold my truck and now have $1200 to spend. First up is this DRZ400s. [url]http://roanoke.craigslist.org/mcy/3935917186.html[/url] I am interested in converting that to an SM, but I'm not sure I can do it on the cheap. The condition of sale is that we trade his bike, for my bike+$300 to him. That would leave me with $900 that was going to be my truck fund, but would probably end up converting that to supermoto and leaving me an all-seasons rider. But I could possibly convert it, and resale it for $2500-$3000? Second is this CBR600F4. [url]http://roanoke.craigslist.org/mcy/3923639772.html[/url] He says all fairings are good except for the front piece. I could make it a streetfighter for $250 or Set it back to stock for probably around $400. Condition of sale is straight $1200 cash, leaving me with two bikes. Then I would consider parting my bike out or selling as whole. I imagine the resale of this F4 would probably be $2500 and also have the cash from my current F3. Any advise is appreciated!! Side note: it's my dream to own a supermoto, but I've never ridden a winter season, so I'm not sure how much that would suck. Should I go for it? Or buy the F4? Thank you!! [/QUOTE]
