Author Message   Lake_bueller Posted on Monday, August 24, 2015 - 05:58 pm:        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   Hughlysses Posted on Monday, August 24, 2015 - 06:15 pm:        Damn- that's a steal!   Lake_bueller Posted on Monday, August 24, 2015 - 06:35 pm:        ^^ 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.   Reepicheep Posted on Monday, August 24, 2015 - 07:38 pm:        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?   Fasted Posted on Wednesday, August 26, 2015 - 07:01 am:        lake bueller, you have a pm from 8/25/2015....   Odd Posted on Wednesday, August 26, 2015 - 10:32 am:        been trying for the last couple of days to reach the owner, no call or text back.   Ratbuell Posted on Wednesday, August 26, 2015 - 10:08 pm:        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.   Fasted Posted on Wednesday, August 26, 2015 - 11:25 pm:        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   Buelldawg Posted on Thursday, August 27, 2015 - 11:02 am:        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 Posted on Thursday, August 27, 2015 - 12:21 pm:        BTW...the bike is actually in Green Bay. The owner lives a few blocks from Lambeau Field.   Fasted Posted on Thursday, August 27, 2015 - 01:14 pm:        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 Posted on Friday, August 28, 2015 - 06:03 pm:        Yep, you have to go after a deal like that. And no, the tundra isn't frozen....... yet. }}}   Dave Posted on Friday, August 28, 2015 - 10:51 pm:        It's sold DAve   Lake_bueller Posted on Saturday, August 29, 2015 - 01:16 pm:        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!!
