The Good: I have owned this bike for a few years, and I love riding it. It has pretty low mileage and starts and runs great. I upgraded the seat to a Mustang front and rear seat, and I put in the 2 inch handlebar risers. Otherwise things are pretty much stock. I had the dealer put on a new front tire and install a new lithium battery last fall about a year ago - both are in great shape. I purchased the bike with the rear seat backrest and the rear luggage rack. The Bad: I did lay it down once at low speed a few years back, so the right side has a few scuff marks. I tried to show them in the photo as well as I could. I think it may have tipped over for the previous owner due to one or two other scratches on the left side. Otherwise it is in very good physical condition. The only mechanical issue is a small oil leak in the final drive. After each ride a few drops of oil leak onto the ground right next to where the rear tire contacts the ground. I had the final drive apart this winter - I lubricated the splines, replaced a few seals, but I could not find the leak. A used final drive is not expensive from eBay, or you can work on it yourself, or you can leave it as-is. I want to be as honest as possible in this listing. Overall the bike is a joy to ride and very low-maintenance. Due to the fuel injection, I never have a problem starting it even in the cold or after storing all winter. I didn't get a chance to ride it more than about 500 miles this summer due to job changes, and this is why I need to sell it. I have set a low reserved price due to the minor issues noted above. I want it to go to a good home, so happy bidding! Note - I noticed how dirty the bike is when I looked at the pictures. It really does look nice when cleaned. I guess I get to clean it up if it does not sell. EDIT ---- Sorry I had the mileage wrong. It has 17,200 miles - NOT 172,000!!!!
