    Interesting the different forks.... The one here seems to have terrifyingly small forks. Would be scared to hit a pebble.

    that was the second thing i noticed, first thing was the green mold/mossy rear tire.

    considering the area Baton Rouge, it looks to be in better shape than i thought it would be. doesn't look like it's sat real long really, the gun rack looks fairly new to me. it would be a project, but for $100 and if it's too much trouble/cash to fix, resell to a member or part it out to help other ones live on. you should be able to make that back fairly easily.

    Yea, I bet there are lots of users looking for commuter parts. I can't get mine sold.

    really? i know they're not exactly highly sought after, but figure any owners would want extra parts for them since they weren't as popular as the big 3.

    guess i figured wrong, sorry about that kosbo.
