2001 Blast, yellow, 6k miles in excellent condition. This is one of the few you are going to find with a tach in a billet dash panel (the way they should come from the factory!).

The bike is in great shape, just had the 5k mile service, it's had synthetic oil since after break in. Brand-new Avon tires, front and back. One year old battery. Pro-series exhaust so they hear you coming, stock pipe comes with the bike. Doesn't leak or burn any oil. Garage kept. Oh, and it comes with Erik Buell's autograph on the tail!

I bought this bike with just over 3,500 miles on it in April of 2004. The original owner bought it as his first bike after taking the MSF course. He took good care of it, but complained that he couldn't keep a voltage regulator in it - that was the only reason he was selling it. He had it replaced once under warranty, one other time besides. When I bought the bike from him, I found he had installed a headlight modulator for "safety" that was killing the voltage regulators. It was just a plug-in item, so out it came and it's been running great since.

I taught my wife to ride on it after she took the MSF course. She learned fast, rode it well and often. She was very easy on the bike, pampered it and took great care of it. And it took great care of her, too. The bike has never been down, but it did get brushed against a wall that left small scratches on the mirror and clutch lever. There are a few small scratches on the flyscreen as well from normal wear and tear. The pictures should show all.

In all, this is a great bike. We hate to sell it, but since my wife bought her 12Scg three weeks ago, it hasn't been ridden like it deserves.

Asking $2600. I'll deliver it within one tank of zip code 08844, further for the right buyer.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them here. I'll have the pictures posted shortly.

I've had some good interest on the bike so far, and about a dozen e-mails in the last week asking if it is still available.

Yes, it is!

I will update the post if it is sold, don't worry!

Some questions we've had so far:

Yes, that's Erik Buell's autograph.

The picture was taken with about 15 miles on the tires. Right now, they have about 120 on them. These should last about 5k+, they're the Avon AM51/52's.

The tach works perfectly! It's mounted in a custom made billet dash. I can put you in touch with the guy who makes 'em, and as spiffy as they are, no, I don't think I'd sell just the tach and dash.

We're in northern NJ, about an hour from NYC, Philly, three from Binghampton Baltimore and Harrisburg. I had one e-mail from somebody in Yaphank (Long Island), it's about one hour at 6am on a Sunday, four hours any other time. If you're lucky.

The bike has had the Screamin' Eagle synthetic in the crankcase and tranny since break-in.

It's never been down, wrecked, wheelied (as if!), or otherwise abused. It has been garage kept (garage is in the pictures!).

Keep 'em comming!

Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to buy one right now, but I do appreciate you letting me know. Good luck with the sale. James
