    She runs like a champ. I just bought an 1100, so I don't need the little one anymore :D
    Comes with saddle bags, and an almost brand new windshield. 38,000 miles(less on the top end. It was laid down by the previous owner, and had a new top end put on the motor because he broke the jugs). She's not the prettiest one out there, needs some love, but runs good, and gets me good MPG. For a 650, it's FAST too! It's a great starter bike, or cheap fixer-upper. The speedo doesn't work right, so it comes with a handlebar mounted GPS too. The speedo on the GPS is a bit more accurate ;). I've driven this all over Michigan, taken it on 500+ mile trips, so it's very reliable. Never has given me any trouble. Handles great, rides pretty good, and drives straight as an arrow if I let go of the bars. She gives a little bit of trouble on a cold start, but always starts. Just gotta let her warm up a bit.

    It's a decent looking bike. It's not mint by any means, but I've seen MUCH worse. The paint is a bit faded, and the seat needs a new cover, and the right exhaust pipe is bent up a little from the previous crash. Oh, and a tiny dent in the top of the tank. My buddy does showcar body work, and told me he'd make the tank, and plastic on it mint, for $300. Gotta let me know soon tho while I can still ride it to his place(before the snow flies). He painted my Geo for me too. His paintwork is amazing.

    uhh, and it would be such a fun project... just use lots of bondo, and my friend is an excellent air brush painter, gosh, that would be a fun project, but its hard to make 1k when you get paid 3 dollars an hour... but i get a free car (just an s10 for now :( ) insurance, and gas. Oh and on some things, like under $5 a time, i can put stuff at napa on the farms tab... MAN i want this now!!!!! lol shit, makin me mad

    I could sure use that sissy bar with that luggage rack.

    Responded to PM's. And sorry, I won't wanna end up parting it out. I want to sell it as a whole. It works fine, no reason to break it up! :)

    Still up for grabs!
