well first, a guy here local is needing to sell his hayabusa. this thing is totally tricked out. turbo, lowered, painted, chromed, strectched, built motor, u name it. he wants a trade.. currently working with a buddy of mine to trade his VFR + $1000 for the busa. if the guy doesn't do it, im going to offer him my bike, 01' Gix 750. if he falls for it, im going to trade him!!

what do u guys think about this? anything i should be weary of???

next on the list, same buddy of mine, we are thinkin of buying this Camaro. here is the list of info on it.

77' Camaro (miles, not many on new motor)

Motor Specs: 350 Chevy 4 bolt, hi nickel alloy block, bored .030" over, balanced crank, comp cam .480 (intake and exhaust), Holley 600, elec choke, vac second, edelbrock performer manifold, stock heads but poilshed. ceramic coated headers. Accel distributor, ignition.

Trans: Turbo Hydro 350 with B&M Transpac. this is a re-built HD tranny, only thing is it has a leak somewhere. Same tranny as they used in that model yr Vette.

Rear End: 10 bolt posi, 3.42 grs

all quarter panels have been replaced and painted perfectly. The bottom of door sills have a lil bubble rust. basically the front end is new parts. the thing looks like it is original from factory.

the only thing he suggested was that the cam should be changed b/c that cam used right now is for a 4 speed stick, but his is an auto 3spd i think. also, tires need to be replaced b/c they have a mushy feeling. lastly, the tranny has a leak somewhere. that will need to be found and fixed.

soo what do u guys think about this car??? he is asking 3g's.

any opinions, i'd appreciate it!!!

Hey,

Truthfully the bike sounds like a hell of a deal. I have a 04 Gixxer 1k and man I love that thing to death. A busa is a huge step up though even from my bike, you gotta be thinking that it has twice the cc's that your current bike had. If he'll trade I'd be the first one to take it sounds like a sweet sweet bike. Just remember by the bike being lowered and stretched the ride quality suffers as its not inline for crusing, more for straightline dragging. Other than that if you think you can handle it have at it!

P.S. and the camaro would be an added bonus ofcourse but there is nothing like a crotch rocket. Or just keep the 750 and do the camaro.

that hayabusa would be a sick deal depending on how much it's been abused but if it's being sold out of fear I would be all over that deal. as for the camaro it sounds good if the only problem is a tranny leak. well you could slap a new one in it for fairly cheap and have a sweet car. either way you could most likely turn either one around for a quick profit but it's hard to say without seeing first hand sounds like a good deal to me though.
