Title: Check this out! '04 GS500F
Post by: warlock214 on May 21, 2013, 10:13:11 AM
The bike was stolen and damaged was done but still has clear Title?? The guy wants $650. I offered $350. He claims it runs but needs a battery. It's not in riding condition because it's apart!! In the listing he states that some of the fairings are in bad shape. What you guys think?

Worth taking a look at least... Just be weary on deals like this, and use your good judgement over a 'good deal'...

verify VIN with police, not DMV. Friend of mine got burned that way.

I would be suspicious of any ad that doesn't show the bike as it is now.
Stolen then painted? The recovered?
