This is a VERY exclusive club!

What's wrong with the old seat? Just re-cover it if it's torn.  :P

Wait, I recognize that fairing!  That's the Craigslist one.

If that's all that's wrong with it, that's a steal.

Nice. There was another broken bike on SD craigslist. I was trying to talk him into parting it out cause i wanted the exhaust.


Nice garage.

I've got an extra seat, but it has a slight tear in it about 2 to 2.5 inches long.

Congrats on the new bike, though. I like the paint scheme on it, too. 40,000 miles though!?! Jeeze! Someone ran this bike to the ground!

so she runs.  dripps oil from the tach drive, as the one that was in the head was froze in there and it broke when I was trying to get it out, so what's left is RTV'd in there, and it still leaks, I'll fix it tomarrow if I have time between runs to the hospital.
