Not very... I need to sell off a few more aftermarket parts and get the stock replacements, then sell the 954... I figure that's the way I'll make the most money...

Sold the Corbin seat/pillion for cash and partial trade for stockers, just bought the stock rearsets and will be selling the Vortex ones here shortly... Supposed to get with a guy locally today about a stock can, then the Micron will go... I'll probably just sell the carbon fiber hugger and run without... Slowly but surely, it's going.

I was actually thinking about selling the plastics and fightering it out, then selling it real cheap as a fighter... Dunno though, gotta see what I can get for the plastics.

It's too bad it's a 954, they're not a hugely popular bike, plus I think they only made them for two years, because you can make double what the bike is worth by parting it out. The only saving grace may be that stunters use 954's quite a bit, so if you join stuntlife or another stunter-specific site you could probably sell most of the parts rather quickly. Still probably take you a year to part it out though.

I have a buddy with a very clean DRZ400SM for sale, low miles, $3900.

Actually, I've had a lot of people talk to me about my bike saying it's their all-time favorite bike (2 sales guys at seperate dealers, and some randome guy while out to eat)... Nobody's got any money though... Plus with the Fireblades forum, I'm sure I would have no problem unloading it. The problem is, do I really want to fuck around with it?
