The bike resting in it's normal place in the garage A picture of the right side. You can see where the right fairing got scratched and some gas leaked out due to the cap not being on tight enough.
A picture of the front The right mirror is off but I have it. The same with the front turn signals. I have some flushmounts that I never got around to putting on. I also have the stock ones.
A picture of the left Rear shot The wheels will clean up, they just have some road grime on them from getting caught in the rain.
All in all it is a good bike but not in showroom condition. It is a perfect bike to learn on. The 500cc engine and gearbox give you ample but not frightening power. We were originally looking at a 250cc but this bike is the same price if not cheaper and it has enough power to cruise at highway speeds and pass if need be. I survived riding I45 through downtown Houston on it, so it should be fine for any backroad or highway.
It has a few aftermarket bits here and there like the windscreen and grips. As mentioned earlier the suspension, tires, and pads are new so that will save the buyer a few hundred bucks.
