10,000 miles,its barely broke in.Looks like a good deal.
I would figure being in Texas it would have a lot more miles with the long riding season there.I suppose it could have come from somewhere else originally.80 SG XS1100

The guy said he would come down on the price...
Told me $1250 firm...
He said it's been sitting for awhile and runs good... not sure if it's in that order though...
He also said the tires still look new and were new when installed...
I thought about this one briefly... would make a nice matched set with my XS... but if I replace my FJ... it will have to be with something just as fast... or faster...

Well...
For me:
1 for riding everyday
1 to work on... and work on... and work on...
1 in the shed that I hope to return to some form of something that moves under its own power... someday
John has:
1 for riding everyday
1 for riding everyday he doesn't feel like riding the other one
(and possibly one that I may be going to look at tomorrow)
but John doesn't know about this one... yet...81 SH Something Special

Well... not quite...
the bike in the shed doesn't have a title... The bike I'm going to look at... does... and it's cheap... Soooooo.... I'll probably get this one for the frame and possibly the exhaust and use the rest for parts...
I'm still trying to get a decent running second bike... John has that already... so I'll just keep plugging away...
