      Could be a good buy for $500, especially with most of another bike for spares. I'll bet the "coil broke down" is simply a bad pick-up coil wire!

        Looks like it has the Jardine Spaghetti 4-2 pipes in decent shape, the engine side covers and cam covers are CHROME! Also looks like it has longer than OEM front upper fork tubes!?!?

        Only about 30K miles, 160 speedo, and with a spare bike and Full Fairing thrown in the deal, shame I don't live lots closer, that looks like a steal!

            Yup

            It is about an hour from me also. I may go take a look at it. I kinda like the graphics on the tank, He really needs to put the emblems back on the side covers if he has them.

              I saw it!!

              I went to see the bike today and to be honest this thing is pretty cool. The guy was a little pissed as ebay cancelled his auction but he relisted it under the right category now. I like it so good luck to everyone else, it is more than likely mine. He would not end the auction just to be fair to everyone, understandable. I tried though, oh well. Those graphics on the tank are bada** up close but it does need the clearcoat redone.
