Sadly, I might have to sell my baby. The insurance and payment are too much. I think I'll get a motorcycle and an old truck to replace the Yaris.:frown:

do not buy a kawasaki bike i bought a brand new bike and the motor went out in 2000 miles and i babied it more than my yaris.they didn't cover it under the warranty because they couldn't prove a factory defect. it was bull shit of course they can not prove a factory defect if you don't know what they supposedly checked. They are the worst for honoring warranties and I even bought extended. Oh well I'm parting out a 2008 Ninja 250 if anyone needs parts. Sorry to hear you have to sell your car hope it works out for the best.

I've had it for less than a year, still breaking it in with only 9,500 miles on it. Sad deal

You can get a new enduro pretty cheap and gets 80mpg but you will only be able to go about 90mph.

That sounds good, i don't need to go past 90mph on a bike. too risky

If you're selling the Netz badges, let me know!
Also, I have two Honda motorcycles, one a 1991 ST1100 that I've had since new. It's never let me down. I would recommend a Honda if you are looking for a bike.
Cheers! M2

Well the 2 cylinder (parallel twin) engines on the 250's, 500's, and 650's aren't known to be the best. I had a 1994 Ninja 250 that I thrashed and it finally blew up at 32,000 miles, which isn't too bad for a bike, especially a 2 cylinder. Plus a new engine for the bike is only $500.
Now I have an '06 Ninja ZX6R (636) that I bought brand new and it has 8,000 miles on it with no problems at all. All of the inline-4 cylinder streetbikes will last forever if you do the regular maintenance.
I would just say to research what type of bike and I personally would stay clear of 2 cylinder parallel twin motors.
And sorry to hear that the warranty didn't cover your loss ztrack157, but I would have fought that in court or through the BBB if you think it was the manufacturer's fault.

I'd like to talk to you about your Header, eyelids and TRD badge. PM me with your asking price. I might like to take your springs too, if you want to do a package deal.
