If that was a local, I would go see if it was real. If real I would buy it even if I did not need it.

It also only has one antenna, which does not look like it is for the CB.

This, I agree with.   Interstates are not in my high interest category but if priced right, I could be talked into one.   One never knows if one doesn't ask.   Could be he just wants to move on or, needs the room for another toy.   Or, has it priced to sell......

43k, pod lights, chrome side covers, chrome scuff guards, fender saddlebag and trunk rails, bag and trunk racks, Cobra rider & passenger boards, Corbin seats (I think) carbs completely redone (so he says). Looks clean.  $3999.  Hell yes it would be worth a look!  My garage is plum full or I'd investigate.

Fork covers, too!

If, I didn't have other pressing priorities now, I'd be headed west for this one after it's been checked out by someone local.    I see it as an opportunity to obtain some of the bling I lost in my crash and then resell without out losing a ton of money.  I also see this bike as a perfect candidate for a trike conversion.  Yeah, I've always wanted a Valkyrire trike.   But alas, have other priorities pushing me another direction.

Not attempting to hijack the thread (how can you beat $3999?), but here is another in western Colorado  via "The Nickle" (Grand Junction) weekly circular. I don't know where it's actually located, and have no connection to the seller:

"2000 Honda GL1500 Interstate, 30,000 miles, one owner, great shape, smooth riding F6 motor.  $5000
970-263-4271."

So, there are more out here.  The small picture accompanying the ad shows it to be red/black.
https://nickads.com/classifieds/category/motorcycles
Are there a couple more screamin' deals on the page?  A pair of K100's. Undecided

If this seller's shop is as clean and organized as it appears in the picture, the owner of this Valk must have cared for it very well to be as pretty as it looks.  Cherry for just-getting-broken-in mileage and carb service by the only Honda dealer in Montrose at a pretty penny.  I'll bet he had the whole bike gone through, as Davis' is a high profile outfit.
He wants it gone quickly to price it so low.

That's a smoking good deal!  You could buy it, sell off the Interstate parts and have a free Standard and some cash.  I'd never do that, but you could.

If it wasn't 2000 miles or so away and I didn't already have a Interstate, I'd buy that in a second.

Heck, if it was within 500 miles from me, I'd buy it as another backup that I don't need. Smiley

Or......you could fly out, buy it, ride around the west all summer. Then sell it and fly back.  Wink

I was thinking that, but hitting Inzane.

I'd love to do that, but I just got a job fixing a house that a huge double pine tree crushed in a storm last Sunday and I'll be busy all summer.
