Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

Dogg, I'm not that close but that's the only bike I even thought about instead of the Valk I/S.
At that price, if I had the funds, we'd be biddin' against each other!
I've ridden 2 of them and Man are they FAST. I'd love to add one to the stable!
Go for it, & good luck!
Peace, Whiskey.

Dogg, damn I wish I'd of seen your post yesterday, that thing is in the same town I'm in.   Windsor Heights is a suburb in Des Moines.

Problem is, my sister-in-law was rushed to the hospital in Missouri last night.  Wife, her sister, and I were setting in the room with her.   Wife has a been in her room all day, still there, I'm in the Motel across the street.   I was at the Motel and wife called and said she has takin a curve for the worse.     Just got back to the Motel, and opened up my laptop, couldn't sleep after this ordeal.

Sister-in-law is stubborn like her dad and she would not go to the Dr to find out what her problem was.       I staid out of the discussion with the Dr, but it is something to do with the colon.   NOT GOOD.

I doubt if I'll be home before the auction ends.

If ya bid on it and get it, send me a PM...................

Dogg, I might be home tonight, if her blood count comes out good at 11:00 AM, we will be on the road home.   About a 2 1/2 hour drive especially with her in the car..    Right now I'm trying to get my oldest son to go look at it, but that self centered bastard has a golf doin's to go to today.

I'd love to write his ass out of my will, but he would stir up enough hell for a dozen people if he gets the short stick.

If I get home in time, I'll take a go look see of the bike.   Send me your phone # via a PM just in case......    Later.     cooldude cooldude angel angel

Okay, finally made it out to see the bike.

I'd say you are not interested.

Things wrong with it.

1. 3 diffwerent paint colors, tank 1 color, side covers another and they are cracking and peeling, rear fender another color.

2, It has been rode pretty hard and put away very wet at times.    It set for 4 years.   Previous owner did have the carbs gone through.

3. Highway pegs WELDED to the engine guards, so no adjustment.

4.  Slide on mufflers welded to the header pipe.

5.  Needs seat recovered, badly.    Being held together with Gorilla tape, or very strong black tape.

6.  Did have new rubber.

7. Did sound good when running.

8. I used to own one and I knew I'd never be able to hold it up, so never rode it.

Hope that helps ya out.

I don't know what book value is on it, I'm assuming you have looked into that.

KBB says $2,075 for excellent.    I'd say this is a $1,000 to $1,100 ball park.
