    13,058 Original Miles. If you can find a cleaner one its probably in a museum. Bike went to Land Air for almost 3 years for a complete rebuild. The total bill was $6302.77. No expence was spared and i have all of the reciepts. NEW, tires,fuel guage,timing belt,plugs,air filter,water pump and hoses, front and rear brake calipers, all new brake pads,master cylinders,front and rear,fuel pump, fuel hoses, completly rebuilt carbs, throttle cable,air suspension,front forks completly rebuilt, and the list goes on and on. It has about 4 inches of stiching on the seat that needs to be sewn. Could use a good buffing and waxing. It will need a new battery but there is 1 in it. Willing to TRADE possibly, OR FOR PARTIAL VALUE, or for a ATV OF SIMILAR VALUE, 450,500,650 Honda Rancher, Rubicon, Rincon. Firearms? Snomobile Arctic Cat at least 800cc with electric and reverse? You can call me at EIGHT O TWO- 373-323FIVE. Please leave a call back number and a message if i dont hear the phone. Its pretty noisy sometimes and i dont hear the phone ring.

    Please note which forum you're in (Vermont). Land Air is a local Honda shop.
