The low milage isn't going to mean squat to someone who wants to ride it. His only hope of getting more than half of what he's asking is to sell it to a museum and its just not that old.

since our gauges only show 99,999 miles, it is possible it has reached the 100,000 mile mark and just reset to 00,000. and he coulda just bought those fairings.. i would need to see some motor pics to check out how dirty the motor is to see if its really legit.

i always loved that smokin joe bike , but i do think its a little to pricey. i saw one local with 3000 miles and it sold for 2600 clams and was in perfect shape.

I wonder if it'll **** oil everywhere when you fire it up, just from dried out seals and whatnot.

These bikes deserve to be ridden, not rotting away in some garage...
No kidding. It does a bike no good, mechanically, to sit. Someone should have ridden that thing instead of letting it sit.
