1990 FZR600...good deal or no?
Wifey has got the motorcycle bug after being around me for too long and wants a bike to learn on. A quick Craigslist search came up with this one...what do you think?

I had an FZR as my 1st bike. NOT recommended at all.

If she's got a level head on her shoulders and isnt a total nutcase, it'l be fine. Those FZRs are freakin tough machines to kill/hurt really. I rather like that about em.

Not too racy, thats a friggin tank.
 It does crash well though Its just really a heavy bitch to muscle around especially for a 1st bike, IMO

An FZR600? You either have this confused with another bike or you are a smurf of some sort. An FZR600 is a wee thing of wee weight.

FZR600's were the SV650 of it's day way back when.
That's a good first bike if it's a decent runner (at that price). Will probably need a lot of TLC due to it's age which will be a good experience for someone new.

why not go with an older Ninja 250 or even one of the newer ones? Proven design and a pretty forgiving bike and you get to play with it (they're fun as hell to ride)
