[QUOTE="slowmo, post: 171669, member: 23933"] I made the comment re: avoiding bored-out 400's. I realize that many readers enjoy making such modifications and that is fine. No offense intended. However, based on your original question, it seems that you're looking to re-enter the sport, buy a used YZF and want to know if there are any particular model years to avoid / seek. Based on that, I would try and find a good condition bike that fits within the average price range for the newest model year you can afford. SFO is right, the YZF market is softening. (I would quickly sell you my 00 426 for $4K.) Given that, I wouldn't put alot of value in trying to "save" some money by buying a bored-out 400 to get a 426-equivalent. High risk that the modifications are not up to snuff. A shade-tree mechanic may place alot of value on his work quality, but as a potential buyer, I value the factory R&D / work alot higher. [/QUOTE]
