If i do get it i plan on taking it to a shop and having it gone over, I’d be a fool if I didn’t, l usually know my limits, but not always ��

For $5,000 and if it’s in great shape....all day every day. The 88 is a great motor that tend to get overlooked because of the tensioners. Have someone look at it and see the condition of the outside and inside tensioner. If it wasn’t ridden hard you can get a lot of miles out of those. No need to fix what isn’t broke (or near broke). Even if you put a grand into it right off the bat then $6000 for that bike is still solid....especially with a tour pack. If you don’t want it....let me know, I’ll grab it!!!

RKC 03
Owner seemed to think it may have been painted. Needed new grips, left was loose, set didnt match. States cruise tends play catch up, no experience on this end with that. Danny grey seat was nice, tour pack was nice. One thumb sized spot of clear coat on the front fender peeling, a few bolt heads here and there had a little rust, it is an 03 after all. One thing I’m learning is that pictures always look better! The one issue is that the original speedo died and was replaced with one of those tach combo units, only it started at zero. He said it was done at an independent shop, not sure why they would do that. His title from 2012 says about 8300 miles, the new speedo says a bit over 14k, he estimates the bike at 28k, no mention of that in his ad. Seemed like a nice ride, big difference from the sporty. Boy i like those floor boards. Sure is heavy though, new riding style for sure. Certainly wasn’t perfect, but nice enough for me, I’m really more concerned about getting the tensioner update resolved or checked out. Also, the DMV in CT is awful, if the mileage makes registration or title a hassle, that alone might make me pass.
