Member Contributer B4V4 Posted August 10, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted August 10, 2017 $500.00 savings for a farkled bike + an adventure. e-Transfer/payPal a deposit and get going man! Sounds like both bikes are great. The 01 also has the nice coloured silver rims :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OleNo1 Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 I'm really leaning to the 2001. GOing to tell the dealer if he'll take $3,000, changes the oii, adjusts and lubes the chain and checks the charging system I'll fly up and ride it home.

Tews19 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Tell him you will take a flight there to buy. Tell him $2900 out the door. All fluids need to be changed. Chain lubed. And R/R needs to be checked and have paperwork verified. If he says no. Save yourself the trip. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OleNo1 Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 Dealer sent me a video of the bike from top to bottom. SOLD. Going to fly up and ride home Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer B4V4 Posted August 11, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted August 11, 2017 Very nice. Of course post some pics :). I scoped out a 99 today and walked away. Just wasn't feel'n it. Sadly, I may go the GSX650F route as the stars seem to be aligning for it. We'll see after a test ride this weekend. Also save $400.00-$700.00/yr on insurance. Seems I'm not quite ready to call a Road Star "my" ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
