word to the wise here. it already needs work. if you want a project you will have one. if anything i have learned from restoring old planes cars trucks dirt bikes street bikes, is buy the one that you can afford that needs the LEAST amount of work!

your not buying it to work on it, your buying it to drive it............right! and then the next thing you know you have a to do list a mile long and then an upgrade list 5 miles long and pretty soon your buried! there are plenty out there in great shape that a divorce/death/job loss/boredom whatever elicits sale that are in better shape. its one thing to do it yourself the pride the experience blah blah. but its another to find hidden things that get real spendy that need immediate attention now before you can enjoy it. the older i get the MORE INSTANT GRATIFICATION I WANT!

think about.................wouldnt you rather be driving it???????
