Question

Best sports bike for under $1500?

Answer 1

You aren't going to find much under $1500, sport or otherwise. If You can wrench a little, You can look for an Older Gixxer or Ninja, lots of those around in various states of (Dis)Repair.

Answer 2

one thats been layed down that you can rebuild and still has a clean title, cuse your not going to be able to find almost anything in that price range that isnt a 1980's unless its a scam

Answer 3

None. The only bike under 600CC worth having is the GS500F. $1500 won't get you on that. Not one in good working condition anyway.

For a decent used sport bike you'd need about $2500 minimum. $3500 will lock in a good 2003 or 2004 model easy.

$1500 will get you something that has a salvage title and been beat all to heck. Not worth having.

Just my opinion and experience here.

Answer 4

Kawasaki 400

Answer 5

It just depends what you mean by sports bike. If you have to have one that is covered with plastic, then you are more than likely out of luck. If you just want to go fast, there are a lot of bikes out there.

I was just looking through the local Craigslist and I saw a nearly mint condition '79? Suzuki GS1000. In its day, that thing was amazingly fast, and even today it would give a lot of bikes a run for their money.

I actually like the way they look too, but that is just a matter of taste.

Good luck. You can actually get a lot of bike for $1,500 if you shop carefully.

Answer 6

Double it and you'll find something. Most horsepower per dollar is a Suzuki Bandit. Most 4 cylinder bike w fairing for least money is probably a Katana 600. Have fun shopping.
