smithy:
wow    fantastic condition for a bike thats 22yrs old

in Australia that bike would be worth $3000-$3500    good score

runabout:
Smithy u wanna buy it? for u it is a deal 4000.00 LOL
hey I got it going today!
runs mint real mint
had bad harness connections...I replaced and it fired first kick.
I did change gear oil and gas
This thing is much more bike than my 91 CR500
I love it.... It has 14 front and 50 rear sprockets front end is in the air alot
I think stock was 14 and 47 but I am not sure on that
Regards

Goat:
You stole that bike if it was just bad connections :P Glad it was a simple fix. More cash for premix for that pig :D If you need a kill switch I have one laying around somewhere. I just use a tether switch that way if I decide to fall off (hasn't happened yet) the bike wont keep going.

It was a gamble and a big one at that... not running as you know when I bought it could have meant anything
no trans
bad piston
shot electrical etc etc... It turned out well for me and I am very humble about it
It is a great bike and I love that moose weight on the fly it motors right along at a high idle
I love it for sure

DoldGuy:
runabout,

That is a VERY nice find! It appears to have Extremely low & easy hours on her. Most 2004's I see have more time & abuse.

Enjoy!
