Now I'm on an F4i and have learned how to take turns the way I want (good enough for the street, probably still really crappy on the track), how to brake, how to 2 up, etc.

Similiar to this bike?
http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hn...626665699.html It appears to be a really good deal....few things need to be done and ill have to do some negotiating slash talking and investigating on that bike it self but i most like will contact him and go check it out.
What do you guys think about that one? The plastics i guess are in rough shape but im sure you can take them of and paint them? As long as they are not cracked....Again i dont mind doing minor repairs....but if i already have to replace fork seals ...chain and sprockets...tires, brakes and the likes id rather get a functional bike....Im sure one can perform most repairs with standard house hold garage tools.
Miles inspection list was really nice, learned some vocabulary and im sure with just a little bit more research i should be able to differentiate good from bad. I dont want to impulse buy, yet i dont want to miss the boat on good deals either.
I started looking into bike stands and all that...but i DONT WANT ANOTHER DSM...that only has 2 wheels lol!
