Re: Considering 2004 Rockster Edition 80 - Any thoughts?
I know what you mean. Apples and oranges. The CBR600RR was my first pure sport bike, but I have owned an R80/7, an R100RS, and I've put some miles on an R1100S. When I rode the '04 Rockster E80, it felt familiar. I dig the boxers for what they are and would not be expecting too much, other than ever...

Re: Considering 2004 Rockster Edition 80 - Any thoughts?
I agree with you, sweatmark. I was considering a newer (stock) CBR600RR to replace the one I just sold. Also considering a new '13, but then a 10 year old E80 pops up for half the price, not to mention insurance. There are a lot of nice used bikes out there. Saw a '13 GSXR-750 with 1K miles for $11,...

Re: Considering 2004 Rockster Edition 80 - Any thoughts?
Yes, one has to wonder why this bike would have 4 owners in 10 years. Maybe I'm over analyzing it. I know they have their quirks, but this will be a weekend driver and them some (5 - 8k miles a season) so I was curious what else to look for, what other questions to ask, and whether $5500 is reasonab...

Considering 2004 Rockster Edition 80 - Any thoughts?
Hi All, I'm pondering buying an '04 Rockster E80 for $5500. It's a 3 owner bike with just under 10,000 miles. It has OEM Bags and windshield, Sargent front/rear seats (also comes with original seats), an after market top case (name escapes me but I've seen it mentioned on this forum), and no center ...

R1100S advice
I am looking at buying a 2000 R1100S non-ABS for $5800. It has 21,000 miles on it. The clear coat on the front fender is wrinkled, and the battery is currently not holding a charge...Bike won't start unless trickle charged for 5 hours and then it might not start again even if you've ridden it. It st...

Thanks jas and sweatmark for your input.
I'm locked into the idea of getting another R, but I am keeping my eyes open.

Considering 2004 Rockster - Any thoughts?
Hi All, I'm a newbie and this is a very nice site you have here. I'm looking for some opinions. I looked at a 2004 Rockster ABS earlier this evening with 10,300 miles. It's a Lime Green 2-owner and has some damage on the right valve cover. There is also a small scratch on the tank which happened rec...
