      Chrisso - It's hard to tell from the pictures, but it looks like it's dinged on both sides of the tank. One looks like it would pop out with compressed air. The other - maybe. Then again it could just be a weird reflection. It also looks like it belonged to somebody that lavished attention on it. $1,760 - is that Australian dollars or US? It looks like its got a pretty decent what appears to be metzeler lasertec on the front - back looks like it might be a bridgestone s11. Both look pretty good. Also looks like it may have a couple dings down low on the very-shiny header pipes. I don't know the exchange rate, but in US bucks It looks good to me. I've got at least that much in mine, plus millions of hours working on it (ok, maybe it just seems like millions). If it runs as good as it looks, and considering all the nifty little extras (I like the tank bra - definately made for a full figured girl ) it looks worth it to me.

      I think I have a loose screw behind the handlebars.
