I am the second owner, and I am selling it as-is because I am getting too old to ride it. (I mean it).
The motorcycle has been sitting unused for the past 3 years. In May 2022, it went through extensive maintenance. All fluids, tires, filters, and other components were replaced, checked, or cleaned as needed to get it into mint condition. That service was almost $1,000. Since then, I've put 1,200 miles on it, if not less. All documentation is available.
Here's a list of what I found when I tried to start it this morning (11/8/26). I am doing my best to disclose all known issues. However, since I am not a mechanic, I reserve the right for unintentional omissions:
1. The seat cover needs replacement. Apparently, it sat too long in direct sunlight.
2. The left rear light cover was either lost or damaged.
3. The bike is dusty. I could make it clean and shiny, but wouldn't that look suspicious when I'm advertising it as "sitting unused for 3 years"?
4. The front and rear brake levers feel soft. This was not an issue the last time I rode it.
5. It needs a new battery. The old one is dead. I was able to jump-start it, which is why the rear lamp is currently detached.
6. It starts and runs well at low RPMs. When I tried to rev it, it started to choke and eventually died. It might be an issue with old fuel, the air filter, etc. I don't know.
The listed price is firm and non-negotiable. If I don't sell it, I will simply donate or scrap it. I am not going to invest any more money into it.
I will consider reasonable trades for building materials, lumber, ATVs, or a side-by-side. I can add cash on my end for the right trade.
Ping me with questions.
