Rm125
From what I have seen around here, North Florida, $2100 is about $300-400 less than the average used bike. He said he just wants to get ride of the payment and wants to get out from under it. He just recently sold his truck and now has a car and has not even rode the bike in about 2-3 months.
He said his older brother, the orginal owner of the bike, rebuilt the top end himself. His brother is said to know bikes like no one else.
I went and looked at the bike my self the other day and all is good. The plastics are looking good, he just recently took the graphics off and was going to put new style graphis on it but has not got around to it. The bike has pro taper bars and a new triple clamp, and also a new FMF silencer with stock pipe. You can tell the bike has been riden though because there is wear around the frame and motor housing from boots and stuff. The under side of the frame has some surface rust from riding. Other than that everything looked good. I did look for cracked plastics and any dints in the pipe and found none, so hopefully it was not crashed.
Early next week we are suppose to take the bike for a ride. I think Im just going to let him ride it for about 15min and see if there are any problems.
The only thing i'm leary about is the fact the top end was rebulit, I told him this and he said the was rebuilt as routine manitence by his brother, who always rebulits the top ends on this bikes after a year of riding.
Also, how could i tell if the powervalves linkage has been converted to the 02? What is the problem with the 01 linkage and what could happen if not fixed? Moreover how much does this part(s) cost to convert to the 02 model.
Thanks
