Title: For Sale: RARE 1986 Yamaha FZX 700 Fazer
Post by: STULER on 09 July 2012, 12:21:07 am
Here's a link to my ad on Craigslist... (milwaukee area)
 
http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/mcy/3125422507.html (http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/mcy/3125422507.html)
 
Update to the ad...
 
I just lent the bike to my brother to go on a ride with the rest of my family.  I was working... Well he took it out and fixated on a point outside the road and drove it off the road.   :\   However, the damage was minimal.  I almost had to strain to see the minor stuff that happened.  If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at S_Tuler@yahoo.com DONT REPLY ON HERE, PLEASE!!! I GET EMAIL DIRECTLY TO MY PHONE, I HARDLY EVER USE THE COMPUTER!!!

I want to clarify, the bike was for sale BEFORE the minor incident.  I am not selling it because of what happened with my brother! I would trust this bike to go cross country and back. It is a neat little machine!

Might be hard viewing a bike more than 3000 miles away....it would need to be a minter & then some ;-D

This isn't a scam. I live in New Berlin, WI. Bike is in great shape. It was dropped in grass, that's why the damage was minimal.

And this is a website in the UK, for the bike you American chaps would normally call an FZ-1.
Over in Europe the FZ-1 was called the Fazer, so different bike, wrong side of the atlantic.

But good luck selling it

Actually, it doesn't matter where in the world you are. Yamaha's made FZX, FZR, FZ (all of which are referred to as Fazers...) The owners manual from my bike actually states on the front FAZER... So this is a correct title

Ahh yes it may well be a Fazer but the states got the gurly 700 82bhp model where as we in the UK got the more manly 94BHP 750 version. Had one years ago..... they are great bikes once you get used the peculiar handling caused by a 16" front wheel and a 15" rear.

Number 1. I was unaware that this was a UK site until a little while ago. Number 2. All the retarded above comments are not neccessary.  I am trying to sell a bike. There's nothing wrong with that. I also put it for sale on Katriders.com and CBRXX.com (forums where I am also a member).  It's not a scam.  If it was, I would tell you the bike was 100% mint and looked great.  It's not mint. It is in very good shape, but not what I would consider "mint". So just keep all the scam comments to yourselves.

And also, I am sure there are more than just UK members on here.  On Katriders.com, we are an american forum, however we get people signing up from all over the country.  We also don't give people a hard time when they first become a member. It's called respect.

Respect is something that is earned not given just because you fill in a form to become a member.  If you wanted respect you should have first introduced yourself to the forum instead of starting you first post with a for sale.

 :agree   The bain o my life that is, so much so I started a thread about it. STULER, you probably are a genuine sort of bloke but on this forum generaly someone knows someone who knows someone if you catch my drift. Good luck to you and remember the less people you piss off the better the chance of a sale  :tape :car

I'm not trying to create bad blood here, or on any forum. I'm a huge part of other forums, and I love them. They offer great advice and generally have nice people on them.  But "respect is earned, not given" that's just rediculous.  If I never met you and walked up and straight up disrespected you, that would be uncalled for.  Respect should be given to everyone.  That's what would make our world a better place in general.

No, that would make you a cunt. However when people are trying to tell you something, and you point-blank refuse to listen or accept they may have a valid point, that also makes you a cunt.

So katriders.com is an american forum, and you get people signing up from all over the country? Wow, get your cosmopolitan attitude  :lol :lol

We do have members from countries other than the UK. Off the top of may head, Spain Portugal France Belgium Norway Sweden Germany (Slaninar, where are you again?), and I'm sure (although their names escape me at present) one or two from the USA. And you know what? We don't give them a hard time, because they join for the right reasons, introduce themselves, and are welcomed into the FOC-U family. Their first post isn't to sell some thing that is 4000 miles and a big ocean away, making it a completely irrelevant post. And of course, they are willing to listen to other people's point of view.

And calling people "retarded" is not necessary either. But putting in a little bit of thought first and noticing that the .uk bit at the end isn't somewhere like "Uklahoma" rather than just going ahead and posting would show a bit of respect for people on here, something which you have failed to do.

Stuler - Seems like you made a mistake by not realising we're a UK site. To be fair, I think you're being given a bit of a hard time by everyone but they are a bunch of piss takers so it's to be expected.

I wouldn't bother getting involved in a forum argument because it's Wednesday so everyone's bored in work meaning they have time to drag this on for days and you'll still not sell your bike here  :z

Best of luck, Brace :thumbup

Thank you... When I became a member here, I didn't bother looking at the URL, also, it was in english... When I typed "Yamaha Fazer Forum" into google, this was the first site. It looked well manned and professional.  Like I said before, I'm not looking to argue.  Just trying to get rid of this bike so I can get my girlfriend a smaller bike.

Stope the bus and hawd the hoarsis. He was being given a hard time by everyone, eh, naw. I was stating that I don't like people coming on here and there first post is a 'FOR SALE' post.
Stuler, if you had taken the time to say hello you would surley have noticed this is a UK site that welcomes everybody and anybody. Take a wee look in Introductions and see for yourself, as Bracechenko says, lots of piss takers on here ( no retards tho ).
 
Good luck getting 'RID' of your bike, I thought you were selling it !!!!

Hi Stuler

Regarding the issues you had on here, unfortunately and contrary to what LT has said there are a few imbeciles and but conversely I have met a lot of regular and helpfup people on here. But regarding the website locations, just keep an eye on the URLs etc.

Anyway hope you sell the bike, I've seen one of those in the flesh, very nice looking bike sorta like a mini Vmax.

Ive just read all the post and tbh its disgusting as a for sale post it turned into a slogging of the poor fella i think certain peeps have given the poor fella a hard time, he made a genuine mistake was not out to rip anyone off, just wrongly posted what's wrong about that !!  Surely pointing the fella in the right direction would have been much better than peeps pulling the fella to bits maybe if certain peeps had been abit more tactile than I'm sure it would have not left a bad taste it's Fooking childish.

Anyway I hope our visitor regains faith in some of us, and I wish you all the best with your bike.

Reading some posts, this joke comes to mind:
  "This is the transcript of a radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newfoundland_%28island%29) in October, 1995. Radio conversation released by the Chief of Naval Operations (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chief_of_Naval_Operations) 10-10-95.

Americans: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a Collision.       

Canadians: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.       

Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.       

Canadians: No. I say again, you divert YOUR course.       

Americans: This is the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Abraham_Lincoln_%28CVN-72%29), the second largest ship in the United States' Atlantic fleet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Fleet_Forces_Command). We are accompanied by three destroyers, three cruisers and numerous support vessels. I demand that YOU change your course 15 degrees north, that's one five degrees north, or countermeasures will be undertaken to ensure the safety of this ship.       

Canadians: This is a lighthouse (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lighthouses_in_Newfoundland_and_Labrador). Your call.[2]"

Now I just want to clarify for the few that said this was a "scam", here are pictures of my bike http://hondabob.smugmug.com/Motorcycles/Seths-Yamaha-Fazer/24120948_KKQSbL#!i=1960110451&k=R4RbwqN (http://hondabob.smugmug.com/Motorcycles/Seths-Yamaha-Fazer/24120948_KKQSbL#!i=1960110451&k=R4RbwqN)
 
My uncle is a professional photographer.  These pics were taking by my condo in New Berlin, WI.... AFTER THE "ACCIDENT",,, notice i said the damage was minimal.. So minimal you can barely tell what happened.  Sorry for the controversy.  My cousins Kawi GPZ is also for sale in the pictures on the motorcycles tab on the main page. My uncle is a HUGE member of the ST forum... I am a huge member of zx-14.com katriders.com and cbrxx.com. I have  zx14 and cbr1100xx also..
 
My first post was a FOR SALE post, correct, but I also keep in touch with people on these forums. Not just to sell somethig.  I plan on becoming a useful member here, as I was looking at getting an FZ1 sometime in the nearer future.
