2013 CVO breakout with 200miles - Go/No go? Advix
Hi
i just moved to singapore where bikes are ridiculously expensive and I just found a very good external condition CVO breakout with about 200 miles on it. Basically the bike was bought 5 years ago and used more than sparsely over the years. I was left on battery tender and I understand the battery was replaced last year. It had yearly maintenance done.
It will be serviced again before purchase (mostly change fluids).
the bike looks beautiful from the outside but am concerned issues will pop up once it start to get ridden again.
any advice? Similar stories and experience with underused bikes?

Just kidding.
Not sure what you mean by yearly maintenance. Try to find out what was done.
There might not be any damage to the seals and lines, but sometimes you can't tell until it's ridden more.
Flush out the fuel tank and lines, refill with fresh gas and put in some fuel treatment like Seafoam.
The only definite need should be a new set of tires. After 5 years there could be cracking and dry rot.
Money would be well spent on having a good tech check everything over before you make a decision.

The one on sale with low mileage is gold colour. It goes for SGD 45k and looks stunning. Yes price is steep but its singapore... a new 2018 breakout will put you out by c. 55-60k sgd....
There is an other one on sale with 11k miles. Red one which has tons of impressive mods (cams, headers and mufflers.) It would go for the same price.
I like the gold colour very much but the red one is the sound mechanical option.
