Did you pay the full asking price?

[kumalaba]

no 900.00 was the lowest he would go( i even tried the 800.00 is all i have on me & pulled it out of my pocket), lol cost 100.00 more than my festy!!

Looks like a pretty good deal at that price. 80+ MPG with at top speed of 55mph --- nice for short trips in decent weather.

Just be careful on that thing youngster. Remember, the faster you go the harder you hit.

How right you are, 52 (14 years ago for me) seems like yesterday and having kid's married and grand kids arrive and grow during those year makes it seem that much faster for me.

Again, be careful and stay around for those grandkids.

There were four people killed here in the Charleston area on two wheeled vehicles over the weekend; 1 age 25 on a bike (DUI for car driver), 1 age 32 on a scooter (DUI charges for car driver) 1 motorcycle head on collision with SUV (no DUI mentioned), 1 motorcycle left the road and struck trees (not know if 4 wheeled vehicle involve, might have left scene).
