Too far from me.

[Duane Ausherman]

Yes, please do.

If it were closer I'd be interested. But I bet it would cost what the restored bike is worth to make it right. Looks rough. If the frame and forks were determined to be straight....

I notice the guy advertising aint the owner.
20,000 miles.........why wooja even write that?
It's done 200,000 miles of sitting under a tree.

I've restored worse.

If the engine's sound, and it's low mileage is genuine, it wouldn't need much work to get it running. You'd need to budget for a new seat, new spokes and paint but the frames on these bikes were well painted and usually survive well. I'd envision spending a couple of thousand (UKP) to get the obvious work done, so depending on the purchase price it could be a good buy. It's even got the unobtanium curved stalk mirrors.

Pshew, I am so glad that bike is far away! First, I don't want to spend the thousands of dollars it will surely go for, but mostly because I can only imagine the unpleasant surprises that await the buyer. Plus, there must have been some major problem that led to the bike's current location.
