Default Researching for first Bike

Hello!

I have been riding a buddies dirt bike all summer long and have always envied his gsxr 1000 but I have fallen in love with the zx-6r and decided that's what I want to purchase for my first bike! I hope to purchase it in the next month but due to the cost i think I may have to wait all the way till november. If anyone has any advice for me on barganing for a bike as well as great places to look that'd be great. I already keep my eye on the local paper, craigs list and ebay.

All information is appreciated!

Both bikes are good, its all good, but the KLX can take you places you can't go on the Ninja.

Welcome to KF.
1: Don't pay full retail
2: Make them give you stuff, ie delivery, extended warranty, helmet, jacket.
3: Make sure that you let them know that they aren't the only game in town even if they are.
