i got the chance to hang out with a s2 and s3 and really fell in love with the s2. i found this one online. after googling the vin i found it was owned by a BWB only a year ago? maybe its still him? i love the color and the fact it seems very original. https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/mcy/6625504858.ht ml http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/21/ 813920.html?1504495085 |

Got it priced right now. Comes with Corbin too. Pegs aren’t original. But other than that looks clean. Late style front brake rotor too. (Message edited by Williamscottrobertson on July 09, 2018) |

Looks like it’s relisted in the for sale section. |

Heh...yeah. Looks like an interesting find - that one is a early one (1B9 VIN sequence) - and so is exactly 30 bikes later than the one you sat on. Also, if my eyes don't decieve me, that one also has those Billet factory trees - those are pretty rare. For $2500...If I had room, I'd have another s2... (Message edited by lynrd on July 10, 2018) |

Funny I looked an hour before posting and didn't see it for sale. I'm seriously thinking about it |

If I didn't already have two, I'd be all over that. Love the colour. His pricing is different between Craigslist and Badweb. |

Federated will cost you ~$700 dock to dock. Since your in the biz, I bet you can find a break down from that. |

Very nice early one, looks to have the billet top clamp. If closer I'd buy it! |

I waited almost two days to text him. Apparently someone is in front of me and he is holding it till the weekend. Issue is I have to set up a haul there and back but it would go to sunny CA |

I feel you. I was in line as well. I offered to pay 500$ nonrefundable deposit via paypal and pick it up within 4 weeks. I guess he needed the money faster... At least it went to someone in the know" :-) |

Sad thing is there is one just like it in CA but Id actually rather go drive across the country for one as that pays for part of the bike. This one I found is the same color combo but has motor work done to it already so overall it might be a better deal |

so a bike dealer contacted me, saying someone traded in the bike, PO said he sold it private party... too bad. he found my post and wanted to offer the bike to me first before posting it. |
