How I got this bike Using Facebook Marketplace as a new source of possible motorcycle purchases, I found this bike in Northville, NY. Spoke to the owner and essentially made the deal, but I was able to get another $100 off the price just by asking when I went to check it out and making an offer. |

The bike had not been used much by the current owner who said he got it from a friend who had it for over 6 years. That seemd to match the info on the title. Prior owner had registered the bike in 2013. Possibly owned it before then. It was sold to this owner in 2019 but the title and registration was still in prior owner's name. Owner said it had a newer battery. Tires seem ok. 21,172 miles.

Sold on the last Saturday in April to a guy from Bethlehem PA. I'd ridden it just a bit (on mostly cold days) but had done all that I wanted to do to make it look good and run nicely. Sorted out the flashing ABS lights by charging the battery and riding it. By the time the bike was picked up, May 24th, I'd ridden more and liked the ride every time. I was able to get a last ride (35 miles) on the morning it left my hands.
