Looking to buy a 907ie. Currently own a hypermotard s and a bmw k1200rs. But....after admiring the looks ....i finally test rode a paso, and the rest is about to become history.

Anyone willing to part with theirs? I am in northern california, by sf. Willing to look into transport for right condition bike. Heated garage and regular exercise assured.

Thank you for the pointers. The one in san fernando valley looks promissing. Flying over there and riding it back on hwy 1 could be pretty fun.

Btw, the larger pics show that the pegs and swingarm have been gold anodized on the san fernando bike. Normally these seem to be dull silver, no?



Focusing on the 907s, but thanks for the 906 suggestion.

Indeed, those parts are always silver. This swingarm is also golden. In worst case it`s painted not anodized. I wonder why that was done. One should ask.
In case you buy a bike from a dealer always try to get a full service on top. Timing belts need to be changed every 2 years.
That bike on ebay was just serviced before 700miles but that was 3 years ago, so no matter what the belts are due again.
So this and maybe a set of new tires (depending on the condition of the ones on the bike) should always be part of the negotiation.

cool, thanks for the confirmation on the finish.
Now I have to decide which bike gets the boot. Apparently...2 exotic cars, a vintage Caddy convert, and 3 bikes are over the top, and not that reasonable, declared the director of homeland security. I guss the bmw k1200rs gets the boot. The Hyper is too much fun in the city, and I could use the 907 as the touring bike / replacement for the k series bike.

I will call the CA dealer tomorrow.
