  • found anoher xs - any thoughts?

    it is EXACTLY like mine.

    red, 1979 SF, 10,000 miles. it's looking pretty weathered though. spedometer glass is broken, right sidecover messed up pretty bad. hasn't run for about a year, but he said they were riding it when it was parked.

    i realize it's tough to say without seeing it, but any thoughts what it is worth?


    he was planning on advertising it for $600 and I offered him $400.


    i plan on getting this one running and using it while i am fixing up my current bike.



    and when i'm finished with the bike i have now it won't be suitable for long distances so this new one would become the road trip machine. given the low miles on the "new" one i think it would be a good choice.

    Go for it. Even if you have to pay the whole $600. With such low miles just the power plant is worth the $600.
    Plus you will have a good winter project. Speedos and similar items are easily obtained from other Forum members with multiple parts bikes. Just put out the word on what part/parts you need and offers of help will come in.
