Dang that is nice. I wish I could have found a nice 2nd gen around here. As it is I'm about a grand into my first gen lol.

Thats the price I paid on mine, had broken plastics and was missing a lot of stuff.

Great deal

[Dizzo]

you think it would be worth getting to resell? only cause my budget wont let me buy it to keep. Or Maybe Someone wants me to pick it up for them? Im not sure how that would work out, but just a thought

its only about 30 minutes from me.

Dirtcrasher comes to mind =) PM him

You should be able to part it, go check it out and see if its all tight and good. You should be able to make back your money and maybe more.

Problem is i think id rather have the 86. Maybe i could get it, switch my painted plastics and sell my 85...

[Twilight]

Theres a thought! I know the 85 is nothing like the 86 from the one I rode =)

I would think a 2nd gen would be worth more whole since there won't be alot of people looking for those parts. At least that's what I've noticed.

Dizzo if I did'nt have my play money tied up in some investment's already I would already have that '86 setting in my shop..That would deffinatly be an upgrade and a half on the machine you have now,I mite figure something out on it anyway's..I'd be suprised if it's still for sale honestly but it's Michigan,ya know the state where money is just falling outta our pocket's we got so much of it,LOL..

Wow if that was 30 min from me it would be picked up now. I would find the money somewhere to get that. Looks real nice.

[Dizzo]

Arrg. You guys are killing me! I gave myself a spending freeze. (trying to save for datona bike week) Maybe i can convince a freind to lend me the money till i sell mine...

[Dirtcrasher]

Hmmmmmm, one week of sweet bikes and smokin beyatches or years of fun on THREE!!

Although...... I may sell my soul for one day with the right pornstar j/k, well - maybe

Thats a killer deal. First gens are selling for 900-1000 down here.

Dude, I would snag that up. Even if you dont consider keeping it (which you may, that 6th gear is always better) you could sell it whole, or part it out and make a killing. As to using your first gen plastics, i dont think it will work to well. The front fender would be easy, but I dont know about rear fitment. Dont you have and auto trans in your x though too? You wouldnt be able to use left handlebar lever for a brake like you do in your X. Altough I prefer Clutch most any day.
