My First Honda

Got what I think is a great deal on this. Bone stock 03 (purchased in 04) with extended warrenty till next fall, not a mark or scratch on it ANYWHERE. Even still has chicken stripes! The 47 year old owner said it hurts his shoulder and knee to ride and needed to sell it and stick to his harley.

Wanna guess what I paid? Oh it only has 1232 miles on it

WOOT WOOT

Nice bike Dan, my quess you paid 7300. Take care of that awesome machine! After looking at the pic, you probably spent more.

Re: My First Honda

Very nice, congrats. Sounds like the situation that got me my bike with only 691 miles on it.

Thanks!

I paid $6800 with a tank skin, and some special $200 tailbag. I have looked over and over again, and cant find a scratch on this bike. Great deal I think???? Am I wrong?

So onward to a nice exhaust and PC/EMS and thats all im doing to her.

Re: My First Honda

$6500 for mine with 1500 miles in absolutely perfect shape 2 years ago. Enjoy your bike, its a lot of fun. And yes, they are profoundly uncomfortable for us old dudes.

Re: My First Honda

If its in as good of shape as you claim, I think its a great deal. Its becoming ever more difficult to find one in minty shape.
