Well I drove up to St. Cloud to get my new used bike and the owner came out and said "Dude, it's making a valve noise now and it does not sound good....I need to find a motor or just sell it as a parts bike. It has the plastic saddlebags and trunk on it that are fairly nice overall, and with the fairings and rest of the bike in reasonable condition he wants to ask 600 for it as a parts bike.
I thanked him for his time, got back in my car with my daughter and drove home.
Now I have found a similar bike, 14,500 miles and the guy wants 750 for it but it needs a whole new front brake setup. Leaked all the fluid out he says....also the tank got rusted but he said he coated it with something, so I have no idea what it will look like when I go see this thing....
Any thoughts on the front brake?
