It's kinda ratty, but a lot of fun to ride. Currently 29k and change on it, and I'm still riding it.
I need something a bit cheaper to ride. This thing guzzles gas and destroys back tires, so I need something a bit more economical. 650 twin perhaps? Suspension work would be nice... I can't add any cash on top, sadly.
the good:
runs great
MIG half exhaust
SATO rearsets (could be replaced with slightly rashed stock depending on trade value)
flat black, how I like it
Buell headlights
freshly rebuilt forks (Ractech seals/bushings/.95 springs)
fairly new stator (9k on it)
Galfer braided SBK lines (front only)
the bad:
dented tank
one minor crack on the tail plastics
paint ran onto the frame, would look better if the whole frame was painted black. I'm likely fixing this soon.
small dent on the left side of the frame, right under the VIN tag
some rash on the left side of the swingarm
some rash on the clutch cover, scuffs on the stator cover
right frame slider has minor wear, left is a little scuffed
slightly bent rear wheel, still holds air and rides fine
the ugly:
got run over by a semi, and the rider died
the maintenance:
chain (520 x ring, DID I think) and rear sprocket (steel JT) have 8k on them. 2 front sprockets, 15 and 16 - probably respectively 5k and 3k on them, also steel JT. No rust or anything on the chain, regularly cleaned and waxed.
could probably use a valve adjustment, no clue if it's been done
have an APE CCT that needs to be installed
tires are 209GPA AMA spec tires, med front med/hard rear, in good shape (maybe 500 street miles on em, plus I suspect one race and one trackday)
brake pads are fairly fresh SBS street pads
spare subframe
spare 530 sprockets with minimal wear, can toss in a brand new 530 X ring Parts Unlimited chain for the right price too
spare (ebay) supposedly good rashed stator cover with stator
spare bent clipons if you want em
spare headlight for the right price (stock headlight)
stock bodywork, some still in excellent shape, included... but some is pretty trashed
CLEAN CA title in my hand
I'd really prefer trading it for a different bike to selling it outright, as I don't want to be bikeless... but it's gotta be something that's good on gas and tires, and not too bad on other maintenance. However... $2500 OBO, and I can certainly take some off if you don't want the rearsets.

Let me know what you have to trade for it, or how much you're willing to pay :teeth
