A few calls. No one shows up like they say. I want to drive it & it kills me but I owe some money & want it pristine & shit happens.

I got it in cycle trader & will be their V Twin edition soon.

Shame besause this not like what the factory put out. 

Mabey I should say F' it & ride!

Probably not a bad idea (Ride)

Carry a sign with ya and when ya make a stop somewhere, hang the sign on it. Might have a buyer out there that ain't lookin' on the web or in the cycle-trader-type publications...

Based on the remarks there and that it was bought for $3500.  sounds like it was a good deal....  I don't how hard it would be now days to get parts for a 900 cc though??   Probably not hard.........

LOL... No shit. 87 miles is pretty damned close actually...

Stock sporties are a bit cheaper Weasle...

There's a lot of folks that want 'em and a lot of folks getting rid of 'em. But, when you're lookin' at a rigid frame, the "market" is limited. A lot will be scared of it.

Especially since it's got a kicker on it too... LOL...
