Matt · 09-30-2009, 10:18 AM

Thought I would post this up, looks like a sweet bike at a good price! Sometimes I like to think "firm" doesn't mean exactly that also

LazyJ · 09-30-2009, 10:21 AM

Matt · 09-30-2009, 10:50 AM

Somehow if that was the case i don't think you would be browsing CL for a 929, lmao.

shaner · 09-30-2009, 09:16 PM

There was a real nice red one on there the other day for around that same price.

929's are sick! I don't know what you're talkin bout bro.

but for $4000 I'd rather get a dirtysex or a double R.
if the 929 was priced at $2500 i'd hump that ish for days.

jculver · 10-09-2009, 12:08 PM

as an owner of a 929 for sale on here, I will say this is a great bike, powerful well priced and one everyone should respect, and if u dont then lets line em up and race. Check out my for sale thread under CBR 929 Erion Racing Edition

LazyJ · 10-09-2009, 12:12 PM

so tell me again why we would have to race to earn respect?

jculver · 10-09-2009, 12:28 PM

You are right, I should have left the racing part out of my response. Just seems to me many people dont give due respect to great bikes just because they are not familier with them. I would take Honda over any Yamaha no question. I see these kids who think that yamaha's in particular are the best bikes around, when honda has always been a leader in quality and performance. especially for the price.

stubby · 10-09-2009, 12:33 PM

Ok, lets line em up and race. MMP tomorrow? Its the west track, lets see how it does

jculver · 10-09-2009, 01:19 PM

didnt you just ask why you had to race to earn respect? Then you tell me to race when I retracted my statement about racing, and i said I should have left that portion out of my post. And you say to race? seems a like a contradiction? no?

No, I'm saying lets take the bike to a road racing track. Lets see what it can do

And racing on the track is fun as hell

jculver · 10-09-2009, 01:37 PM

I understand now

Matt · 10-09-2009, 02:28 PM

It's a nice bike and I would love to have one (in black and yellow of course

), but you also have to remember that they are 8 years old now. You can't throw a blanket "line em up and race" statement out there with a stock bike that's 8 years old, heavier, and has 70 less cc's than other new liter bikes on the market imho

I know, I know, you retracted it

Matt · 10-09-2009, 02:29 PM

Oh, and for the record my 07 GSXR1000 would have ate that thing in a bowl full of milk for breakfast

Both

jculver · 10-09-2009, 03:03 PM

having ridden a gsxr1000 for 2 years, i think i have a good idea of what one has and coming from someone who has ridden both i would have to say the 929 would take that race. and heavier? my cbr weighs 375lbs. what is that gsxr?

You are smoking some serious crack if you think your old 929 will beat a new 1k. I happen to have the same bike as Matt did if you care to find out.

I've ridden both of the bikes and the GSXR will take it hands down regardless... The GSXR may be a tad heavier, but the power to weight is unreal in comparison. I'm willing to bet your comparison is on an older GSXR. There was a lot of technology developed in those 8 years buddy. Again I have ridden both of the bikes in question and there is NO comparison or question. Not trying to knock the 929's cause I like them, it just the facts... Sorry to disappoint

shaner · 10-09-2009, 04:38 PM

I don't care what year Gixxer you have, that 929 won't stand a chance. When the Gixxer 1k came out back in 01 they put it against every other liter bike and nothing came close, including the 929. Two years later they put it against the 954 and guess what, the Gixxer smoked it. Now add 8 years of development to that Gixxer... yeah, NO!

shaner · 10-09-2009, 04:40 PM

I should mention though, that your 929 is still very nice and I'd love to have it but, I'm a broke ass bitch.

tjdmobile · 10-09-2009, 04:52 PM

Well, I too am selling a bike, my 250r. It's not fast as hell, but I get better gas mileage on it than all you ###theads

DB Cooper · 10-09-2009, 06:07 PM

I have had my 929 now for 8 years and that bike is like a sore dick....you just can't beat it, 32,000 flawless miles and still running strong. Yes, not as much motor as the Mighty Gix 1000.
