Not my thing, but if it runs and rides fine, at $7,500 I think you got a great deal.

I was thinking the same thing, needs a side month bad. Overall a sweet bike and dig the color.

Thanks guys. I love the fat front tire. That's why I like the 48 so much too. Ya, I'm not a huge fan of the rear light so that might have to go. Need to get a set of turn signals for the back anyhow. I will post up new pics when it delivers. It's gonna be a long wait for a guy without much in the way of patience.
