I was going to buy this bike for my wife today. But I had a bizarre and disturbing dream last night (wife crashed badly on this bike in the dream). Decided that it's too nice to not give an enthusiast a chance. http://appleton.craigslist.org/mcy/5143920284.html | ||

Damn- that's a steal! | ||

^^ tell me about it! But I've never been that creeped out by a stupid dream. And I don't really want to be a guy that buys it and then flips. I'd rather seen an enthusiast buy this bike. | ||

It's perfect! And what a deal! Thank goodness it is not close to me. Is that really a L? It looks normal. Did the L's get a different suspension as well, or was it all seat differences? | ||

lake bueller, you have a pm from 8/25/2015.... | ||
| Odd |
been trying for the last couple of days to reach the owner, no call or text back. | ||

It's a L. The suspension AND seat are shorter. Giveaway is the distance between the top of the fork lower, and the lower triple tree. If anyone's looking, I have an '01 L that I converted to standard height with an X1 front end, normal rear shock and mount, and a Pegasus seat. Maryland. Volcano gray, black frame, bare aluminum wheels, race kit, race bars, CR mirrors, PR3's with maybe 150 miles on 'em. 3k ish miles. Normally I don't hijack, but LB was posting one he didn't buy, not one he was selling, so...figured I'd toss it out there. bags, I'd like to keep for my S1W.  | ||

if anyone lives near appleton, maybe you could help me out. i am in southern indiana and am interested in the bike, but figure i am 8 or so hours away. it sounds too good to be true, so i hesitate to do 16 hours of driving, fuel, and a hotel room on a gamble. maybe someone could look at it and tell me if it is worth the trip. thanks if there is anyone out there | ||

Fasted, I'm waiting for a return call from the the owner. If I can have a look at it, I'll keep you posted. | ||
| Lake_bueller |
BTW...the bike is actually in Green Bay. The owner lives a few blocks from Lambeau Field. | ||

thanks buelldawg, i called him as well, with no return call yet. he did email and say the bike was still available. i know it's a long shot, but i would hate myself if i didn't try. the tundra isn't frozen this early, is it? | ||
| Buelldawg |
Yep, you have to go after a deal like that. And no, the tundra isn't frozen....... yet. }}} | ||

Funny story....I ran into a guy at the local Sams Club today. He had a "knee scooter" (foot injury) with a Buell XB air cover mounted on the front. Of course I had to say something. It turns out to be the son of the guy with the M2. What a crazy small world!! |
