Look what returned !!
Last January, in a moment of foolishness, I traded away this bike for a Jeep Wrangler. Although I enjoy the heck out of the Jeep, I've continuously regretted letting go of the bike. To appease my anguish, I've been shopping Craigslist for another Bandit to work on. A week or so ago, what do I see, but an ad looking to sell my old bike (or trade it for a Jeep). I reached out to the ad, turns out it was the same woman I traded with last January. She said it was way too much bike for her, and too tall as well. In the 11 months, she put less than 100 miles on it. Although she was asking $2300, I offered about half . . . and she accepted!
So, I still have the Jeep, and my bike; and I'm out only $1200.
