Is that the nesr price? My wife has been looking for one for months now but it's abit out of her range.

I would like to end up at $1500. It's a good old rig that could use a little tinkering now and then. I had a bunch of tuning time in it last year and it's pretty solid though my gut says the timing might be a touch off, but close. I've had it a bunch of years and used it as a commuter. Done a few longer rides with it but it's not exactly modern. The 'cafe' cut seat pad isn't particularly plush..

Biggest issue is it doesn't appreciate sitting for weeks on end. I didn't ride much last year and haven't gotten it out of the barn yet this year but it always seems like the fuel evaporated or the battery went flat after a few weeks. When I was riding it often it was great.

I just don't have time to even change the oil on my lawnmower much less maintain a classic bike these days. Would love to keep it but I know letting it sit for a few years until the kids are older isn't going to do it any good.
