Bad324 Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Scott is very meticulous in ownership with his stuff so that thing is in tip top shape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted July 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Max, getting out for a awhile. Planning on building a Miata for autocross. SO, the room will help, plus dont want to see the bike sit. Suzi needs to get out and run Bad, thank you. I have all receipts for anything done. I did most of the work myself. Other work was performed by Perry Paugh at Dougherthys motorcycle in Bedford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 My co worker is not interested I guess. He went from hard core trying to find the perfect bike for a cafe project to by buying a Vrod. I have no clue how that all unfolded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft drive, leading axle forks, all the weight of a 1000 with all the power of a 750... nothing against the 850, it's a great bike for it's intended use, it's just not a racer. Smooth, reliable cruiser/tourer all day. Suzuki didn't race them for a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottb Posted July 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 I will leave this ad up for another few days. In hindsite, I might just hang on to this bike since I have owned it for so long, 22 years. Still planning doing autocross, so I will have balance the free time, nice weather, “what vehicle to drive” deal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted July 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 Maybe a price drop to $1,300 will generate interest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted July 30, 2018 Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 Just keep it. 22 more years from now you'll have long forgotten what you blew $1300 on but you'll remember that bike and wish you had kept it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
