if it doesn''t have a steering damper get one the ride will be that much better.

I hear ya man those things are expensive but well worth it. I still have my old one from my 01 929 but since I''m looking to get a 954 I will use it on that bike. I have the Ohlins on it it work wonders on it and for wheelies it was so much better when you came down on it too.

oh it wasnt too much at all actually.

so the owner of it is in Texas (i live in Oregon)..I was trying to buy a older zx750 from his friend and it ended up selling
The friend (Jeremy) said he will line up a couple more bikes for me and the 929 was one of them. Checked it out and LOVED IT

the guy in Texas i guess got a DUII and is short money and needs to get off probation and come back to Oregon so he needed to sell his bike.

so I got the bike for $3,500

only problems on it were....

-rear brake caliper is missing 1 bolt...Jeremy ordered it and is gonna send it over to me (takes 7 days for delivery)

-drivers seat is missing the bolts (same deal as above)

-no mirrors and front signals since theyre on the mirrors but apperently the owner has them at his house in Oregon and is having his wife send em.

he is also trying to find the stock pipes for it...i like to current though! :)
