hmm... so basically check if anythings broken.. too bad im buying a new one... thanks alot expertvillage

[lifeisgood070]

Meant to +1 for Harsha806, but my hand slipped.

I've heard you also are supposed to check how it pulls away in second gear & how it starts up cold (not warm... too hard to see/hear problems on a warn engine). & Check the bolts on the mirror. Mine were painted black (stock)... Bolt paint easily rubs off if you remove the mirrors. & you have to remove the mirrors for most tracks. Thus you can tell if the bike has been raced.

Most of all I think you just have to find someone you trust & get lucky

[harsha806]

Check the VIN whether it matches one on the frame with the title.

[JflyG]

experts my ass.. i swear if they're getting rich off of these retard village videos.....

[activeorpassive]

One big item to look for was left out. I always check for play in the head bearings, especially on a sport bike. Wheelies are fun, but wreak havoc on the bearings.

[bodunchar]

To check the headstock, sit on the bike, apply the front brake and push down on the handle bars, see if you can detect and rocking. Or wheel the bike forward a bit and squeeze the front brake to bring the bike to a rapid stop.

Second, put on centre stand, have a buddy push down on the back of the bike to lift front wheel off ground. Turn the bars to see if theres any "notching", it should be smooth.

yeh good one, reminds me of my bike and its abused headstock and leaky forks.

[Heneriiii]

Nice GSXR 1000

[activeorpassive]

[hek6969]

[wog4eva]

fukin tosser stunt man my greek ass and u dont no shit

[drumrmatt20]

only an idiot cracker would want to help someone... even if they need ebonics.

[TheBoyNamedNoize]

dont forget to touch the engine before starting because the owner may have warmed it up to make it appear that it starts easily without a problem.

[bmxridershiz]

lol

[HackyHonky]

Maybe a bit of planning, an outline and some enthusiasm would have made this worth watching but probably not. Zero useful information!

[nietaki]

I've yet to see a useful expert village video...

[jakethepeg1066]

i agree there a waste of youtube

[JAYMZACHILLES]

LOL this is painfull to watch :P i no MORE than him and he is ment to be a pro HAHAHAHAHAH wot about the miles on the bike hahaah thats 1 big thing that makes up my mind about a bike :P

[SummerTheFuzzy]

too obvious to mention fool

[coffeeANDtea1234]

i was expecting an example of what a bad bike would be

man this guy is a douchebag

looks like this stuntbitch got too many blows in the head

can someone shoot him for me?

[JayzBeerz]

what a waste of time video

[Blacksta69]

GSX-R!!!!! SUZUKI GSX-R 600

[calfan3]

does anyone know what year gixxer that is?

[ghettobirdgimp]

Its a 600 gixxer - same model from 1997-2000

I'd say that one is a 1998 or 1999 judging by its color scheme. The 750's had the same shape

[NIKON777]

looks early 90's. its sounds like shit idling though.

[xninjazx6r]

why its so ugly

[motogpron]

boring are you done yet.

[freestylemotokid]

[phoenixar]

[teamkinetik]

fuck dude wasted my time a noob knows all that

[BestestMoron]

I was expecting more info.. like how much mileage is acceptable, what are the maintenance intervals required, what brands are long lasting etc.. I pretty much know in detail about cars, but I'm a newbie to bikes.
